It is also considered as the necropolitical arm of capitalism. Fostering sensitivity towards situations of vulnerability as a source of accumulation and generation of capital. To support these arguments, I present the main theses of the analysis of emotions in capitalism developed by Adam Smith. As well as the fetishization and totemization of money developed by Karl Marx. Finally, I present Mbembe's theoretical arguments regarding enrichment from tax exemption. This theoretical review serves as a framework to analyze and review videos of the Teletón México 2021. In which life stories of childhoods with disabilities and cancer are promoted. Among other aspects, the disqualification of the disability built from rehabilitation stands out. As well as a review of rehabilitation as fiscal immunization. En este artículo se propone el análisis de Teletón como evento productor y reproductor de un “proceso sensibilizatorio” en el que se preforman pautas de interacción con y hacia las personas con discapacidad. Además, se le considera como el brazo necropolítco del capitalismo, fomentando la sensibilidad hacia situaciones de vulnerabilidad como fuente de acumulación y generación de capital. Para sostener éstos argumentos, presento las principales tesis del análisis de las emociones en el capitalismo desarrolladas por Adam Smith, así como también la fetichización y totemización del dinero propuesta por Karl Marx. Finalmente, presento los argumentos teóricos de Achille Mbembe en torno al enriquecimiento a partir de la exención fiscal. En conjunto, esta revisión teórica sirve como marco para analizar y revisar vídeos del Teletón México 2021 en los que se promueven historias de vida de infancias con discapacidad y cáncer. En los mismos, entre otros aspectos destacan: la inhabilitación de la discapacidad construida a partir de la rehabilitación y la revisión de esta última como inmunización fiscal.
