Capitalism Hits Home: The Violent Crimes of Lost, Angry Men

Democracy At Work Premiered Nov 17, 2025 Capitalism Hits Home with Dr. Harriet Fraad[ CHH S08E21] The Violent Crimes of Lost, Angry Men In this episode of Capitalism Hits Home, Dr. Harriet Fraad explores how rape and mass murder become some men’s reactions to their reduced status as providers for dependent women and children. Men who never recognized the life-sustaining care they received from women are lost and angry.  Vulnerability and emotional need are inaccessible for many men. Anger and violence seem like socially accepted masculine ways to reestablish lost economic power and an emotional outlet for loneliness. As this epidemic continues to crescendo with the current administration in power, we must understand the correlations at play and explore ways to curb this unnecessary violence.
