Capitalocene names capitalism as a system of power, profit, and re/production in the web of life. It thinks capitalism as if human relations form through the geographies of life.

Fewer things strike fear in the heart of right wingers than wokeness. It's no secret that their relationship with progressive ideas has been complicated over the years, but how and why did the word "woke" become something that causes them to become so angry... or afraid.

In this video, I look at how we've reached this point. How online discourse, media and politics have reinforced the fear of wokeness, and how agitators on the right have intentionally encouraged their followers to fear something that they don't understand.
