This is a clip from Capitalism Hits Home: The Role of Emotions in Our Personal and Political Lives, in which Dr. Fraad and Prof. Forlano discuss emotional needs and desires and how they permeate every aspect of our lives. They also suffuse every political movement whether socialist, fascist, or neoliberal. We bring ourselves to everything we do. We are emotional beings. We study emotion's role which rarely appears in the credits.
FORLANO: When you walk into the area where people are striking, you can feel the beautiful solidarity between human beings and that is why I think these violent forces on the right, of corporatism, wherever they come from, seek to really crush that emergence of the human spirit...
FRAAD: That's right and one of the reason that all the corporations that are big at least publicly condemned the actions of Jan 6 at the Capitol is they don't want people out of control...They want people at home, watching tv, and watching tv ads, and consuming expensive junk food and obeying the status quo and not speaking out about what bothers them.
