Sample Book Insights:
#1 The idea that anger can regulate tribes is something that people are unlikely to be familiar with. It helps us understand what’s happening in politics today.
#2 Sports fans teach us that tribalism motivates. The angry fan is a functional minority who is loyal, committed, and feels the tribal identity strongly. They regulate and reinforce tribal identity, which is an inherently political act.
#3 There are two types of public anger: moral outrage, which is a legitimate response to being ignored, and tribal energy that can be cynically harnessed and weaponized by opportunists. But in viewing both forms of anger as emotions that function to solve a collective action problem, you risk making tribal anger seem benign.
#4 The challenge for a nonviolent politics is to get the message out about legitimate grievance, and then to respond with an alternative politics. This is because any alternative politics must be significant enough on an emotional level to create political identities independent of tribalism.
