Tonight, the former Minneapolis police officer convicted in the murder of George Floyd hospitalized after being stabbed at the Arizona prison where he's serving a more than 20 year sentence.
Ladies and gentlemen, welcome aboard today's edition of Human Events Daily live from Washington DC.
Today is November 27th Anno Domini 2023.
Derek Chauvin stabbed in prison.
Left to die.
Left to rot.
This is what our country has become.
Let me tell you why Derek Chauvin is such an issue for the regime.
And almost a year ago, almost a full year ago, here on this program, I told you that Derek Chauvin is a loose end to the regime.
And here's the issue.
They know that Derek Chauvin did not murder George Floyd.
If George Floyd was murdered, he was murdered by George Floyd himself.
By overdosing on fentanyl.
And everybody knew it.
But then we saw this video.
And America decided that we were going to put all our blames and cast all our blames Just like was done in ancient times, medieval times in some cases, by casting our blames on a scapegoat.
You see, a scapegoat was used really even almost pre-biblical times actually, not medieval, I misspoke.
A scapegoat was used to take up all the sins of the society and was then sacrificed in order to absolve those sins.
And so that's what we did.
We decided that society was sinful and that our scapegoat to be sacrificed was Derek Chauvin.
Of course, here's the problem.
The scapegoat never actually survives the sacrifice, or at least it didn't in the past.
But now times have changed.
The color revolution that George Floyd's death was used to spark, that gave cover to a stolen election in 2020, It's all turned off.
All the energy, all the anger, all the passion, it's faded, it's eroded, it's washed away.
And so the question before us then, or really the question for the regime, is what actually happened to George Floyd?
Now there's a new case out and a new documentary which you need to see, The Fall of Minneapolis.
And in this documentary, they show you how Washington D.C.
and agents from within Washington D.C.
worked to massage, alter, and edit the autopsy of George Floyd.
Why?
Because they wanted to make sure that Derek Chauvin took the blame.
But now people are looking into that autopsy.
People are looking into that case.
People are looking into the coroner.
It turns out that Derek Chauvin didn't murder George Floyd.
That Derek Chauvin Whatever he's done in his life is certainly innocent of the murder of George Floyd.
And we have an innocent man behind bars.
That's a loose end to the regime.
A loose end that the regime is trying to wrap up.
Gavin Wax will be on next.

So we're looking at this situation.
Derek Chauvin stabbed in prison.
Now we're told that even though he was stabbed and at one point critically injured, That he will recover, that he's expected to recover, and he's going to be put now into, he's going to be separated.
He's not going to be put in general population.
But why was Derek Chauvin put in general population to begin with?
You might ask yourself.
Why was a guy like this?
And remember, this never happened when he was being held up in Minnesota.
But they brought him down to a federal prison in Tucson.
And when they brought him down to the federal prison in Tucson, that's when they moved him into general population.
So, hold on, wait a minute.
State level, where he was being held before, then he was brought to federal level.
Federal level, that's run by who?
Oh right, that's being run by the Biden administration, by the federal government, by the Department of Justice, by Merrick Garland.
So just as he goes under Merrick Garland's custody, just as he goes, magically, it's so amazing that this just randomly, total coincidence, folks, just by a coincidence, remember, remember, there are no conspiracies, but there are coincidences.
As a coincidence, he gets put into general population when he's put into federal prison, and at that point, that is the point Where he gets stabbed.
And we've got no information, by the way, about the assailant who did this.
We have no clue.
We have no clue whatsoever who did this, what their background is.
Now, I've said to a few people over the weekend, happy Thanksgiving, by the way, to everybody.
I hope you had a great one.
We had a fantastic one.
Went to my family's house outside of Philadelphia, went down to a Temple University game, etc.
Did the very, very domestic, very domestic weekend.
But something that we were chatting about certainly was the Derek Chauvin stabbing.
And the question then becomes, was this actually something over You know, someone trying to shut him up, trying to tie up a loose end.
And I pointed out, look, when I was in Guantanamo Bay, when I served down there, you would not believe the amount of arguments, the amount of fights, the things that broke out over people just wanting to use the television set, who got to control the remote, what they would watch, whether they were going to watch TV or they were going to play PlayStation or whatever it is.
So I'm not going to say 100%, right?
You have to throw out there that there are all sorts of reasons that you can get stabbed in prison.
In many ways, the regime wants him to go away because he represents a problem for them.
This case represents a problem for the regime because if you look into the details of the George Floyd case, and now that you've got new reports coming out saying the FBI played a role in changing the autopsy, changing the language of the autopsy, and putting pressure on the coroner himself, To change his testimony from what it was at the trial.
Now you've got serious issues as to whether or not that case was actually properly tried and at some point could be overturned.
Now just because his last appeal was declined to be reviewed by the Supreme Court, that doesn't necessarily mean that he doesn't have any other appeals.
The way these things work is that you can appeal on various different grounds.
And so people thought that the Supreme Court decided to decline to review on the specific grounds of his most recent appeal, that doesn't mean they can't appeal it.
I can hear you loud and clear.
So now that we have these reports, now that we can put it all together, we can actually start to look into this.
So I'm being told that we do have Gavin Wax back here with us.
Gavin, can you hear us? - Can hear you loud and clear.
I think we had some technical difficulties earlier, but they seem to be resolved. - Yes, a little bit.
So, Gavin, why is it that the Derek Chauvin case represents such a threat to the regime?
Because, look, we know that they've built up so much on this bed of lies regarding the death of George Floyd.
If he stays alive and continuing to plug away on these appeals, what then could potentially happen?
What is the danger of what could happen for the regime?
Well, listen, I think you're scratching the surface of a very large iceberg.
The entire incident that involved Chauvin and George Floyd was the springboard to start the color revolution and the summer of love of 2020, which basically, you know, precipitated all the events leading up to the extremely controversial presidential election of that same year.
So the fact that Derek Chauvin is still alive and the fact that people are continuing to examine I'm good.
continues to poke holes in the official government narrative, it presents the possibility of opening a Pandora's box where many people who were, you know, who fell, you know, completely under the spell of the summer of love and who were completely, you know, manipulated by it through the narrative formation that occurred are now going manipulated by it through the narrative formation that occurred are now going to begin to question not just that incident, but everything So you understand that the regime in Washington, the globalists, the elites, whatever you want to describe them,
they're in an extremely precarious and fragile situation as it comes to public perception and the narrative formations that have been pushed out and they need to continuously, you know, build up more lies and shift the narrative and they're in an extremely precarious and fragile situation as it comes to public perception and the They can't have anyone examine the events of the past because the second you begin to study them, the second you begin to, you know, work your way through it, through the fog of war, so to speak, and you begin to get some clarity around.
around the actual facts about these types of world changing events, you begin to come to the realization that things are not all as they seem and how they were portrayed.
So I think this alone, the fact that truth can begin to come to the surface, is the biggest threat of all to the regime and that's why they're panicking.
And what is it, Gavin, though, specifically about the George Floyd case, that they were able to use that in 2020?
How was it that really everything that you saw in 2020 was actually built on this?
Because if you pull out that piece, if you pull out that one singular piece of George Floyd being murdered by systemic racism, then how much of what happened in 2020 completely falls apart?
Everything.
I mean, he was the martyr.
They basically, you know, they defied him.
They turned him into a saint of this woke leftist, you know, cultural Marxist religion.
I mean, he was, you know, their rallying cry.
You know, they painted him in these, you know, loving, you know, pictures when in reality he was a criminal thug.
He was a drug addict.
This man pointed a gun at a pregnant woman's belly.
You know, he was no one that we should have felt any remorse for.
And he ended up dying because of an overdose.
But the optics were perfect for the regime.
And the regime needed optics and they needed a narrative and they needed a spark to cause basically a racial and ideological war that plagued the country for several months.
to cause basically a racial and ideological war that plagued the country for several months.
And again, precipitated a series of events that could best be described as a color revolution.
And again, precipitated a series of events that could best be described as a color revolution.
So you had a white cop, you know, pressing down on a black suspect who had just been caught, you know, using counterfeit cash or whatever he was called, they called him in for.
And then he later died.
And they were able to paint this picture about supremacy, about, you know, the police, about law enforcement.
They were able to attack all of these institutions that they viewed as threats or roadblocks to their ultimate goal of changing power in Washington.
And they were able to use the following protests and riots basically to cause mass instability, to threaten the entire legitimacy of the state, of the federal government, and basically create a demoralization campaign for anyone who thought differently.
And I know many people thought differently, but they were, you know, forced into posting black swears and all these other types of struggle sessions type tactics.
And it was basically just a spark that set off a whole bunch of other actions.
And I've just got to point out that while we're here, and we've only got a couple minutes, so I don't want to belabor the point, but there were a lot of conservatives that went along with this at the time.
There really were, man.
A lot of conservatives, a lot of prominent Republicans, they bought into it.
You know, you saw Mitt Romney marching with BLM in D.C.
I mean, all of a sudden BLM became, you know, a cause that other Republicans wanted to rally behind.
Nikki Haley?
In the name of George Floyd.
Remember, in the name of George Floyd.
Nikki Haley has that tweet out.
You know, we must do better in the name of George Floyd, which Vivek, not to get into the primary too much because I think it's not really happening, but the
The fact that Nikki Haley, someone who played into every single possible systemic racism narrative that she could find, from the lowering of the flag in South Carolina all the way forward, was that she promoted herself as part of this, I'm a new American and we're going to absolve the sins of the old America.
In the opening here, I was using the analogy of the scapegoat that would be used to absolve the sins that came before, absolve the sins of the society.
And that's who Derek Chauvin became.
The problem, of course, being that the scapegoat is not supposed to survive the sacrifice.
If you have the scapegoat alive and the scapegoat suddenly starts questioning those narratives and whether or not they were sins to begin with, then possibly, just possibly, we might learn that America isn't a systemic racist country.
And in fact, if there is any oppression in this country that's currently going on, It's actually oppression against white people, specifically white males.

So, Gavin, I'm just, I'm looking at this thing and of course, Bureau of Prisons, man, no identification whatsoever.
We get nothing.
We get no identification on who did it.
We have no idea why they were stabbed.
It's just suddenly someone stabbed and Derek Chauvin got stabbed.
It's kind of like what they did in Ireland over the weekend where you had this insane Migrant, Algerian migrant, who everyone knew from the start is exactly what happened, ran up and started stabbing children on Thanksgiving Day, which of course in Ireland they don't have Thanksgiving, stabbing children outside of a kindergarten in Ireland, including I guess it was a teacher or the teacher assistant was stabbed as well.
One of the kids is still in critical condition in Dublin in the hospital and yet for the longest time, this is Coulter's Law, right?
For the longest time the Irish media would not tell us Anything about the man, they would tell us about the knife.
They said, oh, it's a very long knife.
It's a great knife.
It's 10 inches.
Some people said it was 12 inches.
It's got a hilt.
There's a hilted knife!
Oh my goodness, a hilted knife.
He stabbed the children.
Now, could you tell me who stabbed the children?
Because they didn't want to tell anyone who actually stabbed the children.
I feel like that's what's kind of going on with this situation here with Derek Chauvin as well.
They won't tell us who stabbed Derek Chauvin, and they're not telling us for a reason.
But, Gavin, more of the point, I think Derek Chauvin, you know, people say, all right, you can't be a purist on the right.
And that's true.
I don't want to be a purist on many things.
But on things like this, I do actually look at them as a litmus test because I kind of keep a running list in my head of those Republicans and those conservatives.
Who were on the wrong side of history when it comes to Derek Chauvin at the time.
I remember watching the video and I said it's not at all clear to me what's going on here.
It doesn't look like he's putting any force on that guy, which he wasn't, and it later came out there were no injuries whatsoever.
And Derek Chauvin, by the way, for anyone who doesn't know, he's 5'7", which Gavin, last time I checked, 5'7".
Is that shorter than Ron DeSantis?
We'll never know, because like you said, the media doesn't like to put out official numbers for things they're protecting, so his height will be protected along with the identity of any Algerian migrant who decides to stab children in Ireland.
I mean, it's all sick, but listen, I agree with you.
Should we have Derek Chauvin as a litmus test when it comes to not just who should win the primary but also really who we should prop up and who we should support when it comes to people within the movement?
Absolutely.
We need people who know what time it is.
We need people who understand the left's tactics, their tactics that involve narrative formation and how they manipulate the public perception.
If we have weak leaders who aren't willing to push back against the left, their narrative formation, their lies, their attempts to manipulate the public, then we have no leaders at all.
And we're not going to be able to effectively fight back against the left and take this country back from their grasp.
And right now we have seen throughout the past few months, few years, we've seen a litany of weak Republican and conservative leaders who continue to fall victim to any narrative, any notion that the left pushes forward.
And I think Tarek Chauvin is probably one of the biggest ones.
And if you can't recognize the truth, the actual facts about this case, the actual facts about what happened and what followed, you're in no position to leave this country at any level, state, local, federal, you name it.
We need leaders who are willing to push back, who are willing to say hard truths And this is really all about truth.
And what we're seeing also in Ireland is that they're trying to censor the truth because truth is a dangerous weapon against a regime built on a foundation of lies and smears.
So you push out the truth.
It's going to cost you and some of the mainstream media outlets and maybe cost you friends and may cost you invites, but that's exactly the type of leadership and the type of, you know, backbone that we need right now from Republican leadership.
Because if you can't even understand what's happening right now, if you can't even understand, you know, what the left is doing, you're never going to, you're going to be walked all over.
You're in no position to lead anyone.
So I think it's a great list test, and I think it already puts out most of the Republican primary field from the running, and it probably will prevent many future contenders in the cycles to come.
Yeah, I'll say this, you know, people have said, you know, and he's been on the show a few times, people say, you know, what's the deal with Vivek Ramaswamy?
What's that guy's deal?
And look, I get it.
You know, the guy sort of comes out of nowhere into politics, makes a big splash and people are asking questions.
I think that's natural and I think that's important.
I think it's good to be skeptical.
At the same time, this kind of seems like something a Vivek would actually talk about because that's something that, and I gotta say, you know, I support him doing this, that when we, it's the only reason really to watch the debates is because you'll have all of these people up there that will never challenge sort of the orthodoxy, the Republican orthodoxy on so many different things, and then you have Vivek up there basically playing
You know, the role that Trump played in 2016, where he's this outsider just coming in and dropping red pill after red pill on, like, he brings up the Armenian Christians, right?
Like, who does that?
No, I fully agree with you.
Listen, I'm skeptical of the VEC as many others are, but I'll praise him when he does something worthy of praise.
And I think that he, like you said, has been really, you know, kind of a maverick on a lot of issues, you know, challenging the Republican establishment, bringing up topics that you really only see on Twitter or, excuse me, X, in certain circles on the online right.
So he's doing the job of moving the Overton window of bringing a lot of these topics to the forefront.
So I'm willing to praise him.
I mean, he came out I think it was today with the Post talking about the Air Force and how they're trying to push out, you know, white fighter pilots for fighter jets and all these sorts of things.
I mean, these are not topics that you hear most Republican candidates talk about.
They avoid the issue.
They talk only in consultant approved slogans and talking points.
They don't actually touch on any of the, you know, no pun intended, touchy topics that are facing this country.
But that's the exactly the kind of person and leadership we need.
I mean, it took Trump coming onto the stage in 2015 talking about immigration, talking about globalization, talking about the trade imbalance, talking about the institutional rod in this country for Republicans to wake up and start talking about these issues now in tandem.
And now you see people like Ron DeSantis and whoever, you know, trying to parrot the same lines that, you know, made Trump a national figure that made him the leader of the Republican Party because he had, you know, the chutzpah, he had the backbone to actually, you know, cross that bridge and talk about them when no one else dared do it.
So I give props to Vivek.
I think, you know, obviously we're going to need a betting to see if he's truly got America first.
So he has some questionable, you know, background affiliations, et cetera.
But, you know, to me, he's not really someone that should get all theire of the America first movement.
I mean, he's not a threat to Trump.
He's not a threat in this primary.
And if he's saying good things that are going to move the needle in terms of the public discourse and all the power to him.
Yeah.
And so I guess the reason I bring him up is because of all the people.
And by the way, when you were talking, I did just double check his Twitter account.
I haven't seen anything about Derek Chauvin from him.
Okay, so we'll see.
But what I'm getting at, though, is that this seems like the kind of thing that he wouldn't be scared to talk about, right?
Like, this seems like kind of thing, and we've seen him do this time and time again, where there's been a vocal Contingent of something either within the grassroots or in the online base, whatever you call it.
And Vivek has taken up that mantle and been willing to take that to the higher level and really mainstream a lot of these ideas.
Whereas, you know, somebody like Nikki Haley, we know has already been on the wrong side of this.
Chris Christie's not going to do it.
Ron DeSantis isn't going to do it.
uh, pens and Tim Scott weren't going to do it.
They're out of the race already.
You know, those guys were ready to fly over to, uh, fly over to Kiev and start humping Zelensky's leg.
You know, they're both done.
I don't know why they thought that would be a good idea.
Um, I don't even know who else is in the race at this point.
Uh, cause I can't think as none of them are memorable, but I'll point it out this way that, um, you know, I think this is something that he, he should bring up, but it's also something, look, obviously it's not the most important thing facing our country, but in a way, in a way, telling the truth about these cases and telling the truth about telling the truth about these cases and telling the truth about these important issues, the rise of crime, the amount of murder that has exploded since the death of George Lloyd was allowed to go down in the name of a lie
is absolutely important to start to actually get the job done if we're going to save this country.
Which, by the way, you know, we can clean up the streets when Xi Jinping is coming to town.
That shows that the United States has all of the ability to actually do these things when we have the political will to do so.
No, you're hitting the nail on the head, and I think it just goes to show how pathetic our political class is, that someone like Vivek says basic truths, he does the bare minimum.
I think what we're talking about really is the bare minimum.
Let's not lower our standards politically.
He does the bare minimum, and all of a sudden, someone who, less than a year ago, nobody knew who he was.
He had no national profile.
No one could pronounce his name.
Now he's a leading contender in the Republican field.
I think that just goes to show how strong the market is, how strong the appetite is from, you know, grassroots Americans for real leadership, for people who are willing to speak truth to power.
And if anyone had half a brain and wasn't completely in debt to the donors or the consultant class and wasn't completely beholden to them, they would understand that politically speaking, electorally speaking, It's in their own self-interest to speak truth to power.
It's their own self-interest to talk about these things.
awareness to these issues that many Americans are looking for leadership on.
But there's simply no will to do it in the same way you discussed how there's no will to fix the many problems plaguing the American city or this country as a whole.
But then obviously when the will emerges in the case of a of an official state visit to China, all of a sudden the streets are clean, the homeless are gone, the drugs are gone.
The human feces is cleaned up.
I've got to, you know, a long time ago.
Coming up on a break.
But Gavin, you're exactly right.
I gotta shout out TheFallOfMinneapolis.com.
TheFallOfMinneapolis.com.
Make sure everyone goes and sees this film.
Folks, Derek Chauvin was a scapegoat for the color revolution of 2020.
They're trying to make Donald Trump the biggest scapegoat of all.
That's why they want to put Trump behind bars, because they want to do the same thing to him.
Buzzing in my ear about the boring people at your office.
I'm trying to listen to the new Human Events with Jack Posobiec.
Alright, Jack Posobiec back with Human Events Daily.
Gavin Wax is our guest.
So, we mentioned about how, of course, it was Thanksgiving last week.
I had a great Thanksgiving.
Gavin, how was your Thanksgiving?
It was fantastic.
I wasn't able to visit family.
I was in Europe doing some travels politically, but I normally have a beautiful turkey Thanksgiving dinner with family.
I was working, you know, I guess that's important.
The work never sleeps.
I can make a comment from the Catholic section, but I won't.
The whole thing about how Protestants don't believe in works.
There was this video, you may have seen it, about Thanksgiving that came out last week.
that, and by the way, that isn't to say the Protestants don't do works.
It's that workspace salvation, which obviously Catholics don't also believe.
This tweet came out.
It went super viral.
Elon commented on it.
A lot of people commented on it about a slightly non-traditional type of Thanksgiving.
And see, millennials have started doing this new thing called Friendsgiving.
Have you done a Friendsgiving, Gavin?
Have you ever done one?
I have been to a Friendsgiving, not to replace a Thanksgiving, but in addition to.
But in addition to, yeah.
No, I've been, I think I've gone once to a Friendsgiving to Tanya did one with her girlfriends this year.
She had a great time, but it was like a birthday party slash Friendsgiving cause someone had a birthday around that time.
So that's something that that's, you know, very millennial kind of thing to do.
But, but I think a lot of this is being driven because millennials generally don't have families and because you lack family, you lack those family ties.
Uh, the, the rise of Friendsgiving has, has become this huge thing.
Well, one group of millennials decided to take things to the next level, and instead of Thanksgiving, they decided to have Hanksgiving.
Let's play the clip.
Not to brag, but I got invited to Hanksgiving.
It's a party my friend throws every year where everyone dresses up as Tom Hanks.
You knew that by the title.
There's also pictures of Tom Hanks everywhere.
This was the third annual one.
Could not believe I was invited.
It's kind of a pretty exclusive event and everyone goes really full out, like a hundred percent full out.
Costumes were purchased for this event that will probably never be worn again.
That's, that is the true love of Tom Hanks.
Um, and then we all got together for a group photo.
Tom Hanks, you're invited whenever.
And then there were winners for the best dish and the best costumes.
So happy Thanksgiving!
Happy Thanksgiving!
So there's a lot to unpack here, and I've got a piece that's going up a little bit later at humanevents.com called Thanksgiving and the Origin Story of Millennial Cringe.
And look, it would be easy to just sit and dunk on this the whole time, and certainly I will be, but at the same time it's like this is the perfect Tone of millennial office drone cube farm like NPC.
There's there's no culture here.
There's there's no yeah bug people.
There's no originality because remember you can't do anything original because if you do something original that might be problematic.
That might be racist.
That might be anti-woke.
That might that might cross some boundaries.
So you have to go back To the nostalgia of, like, the last safe white man in America.
And that, of course, is Tom Hanks.
And we remember Big and Forrest Gump and, you know, all of these different things that go to get Toy Story from Tom Hanks to make that sort of a safe place.
But you notice that these millennials, they have no joy whatsoever.
And you can hear it, this flat monotone that she's delivering it in.
And these people, when you meet them as well, And, you know, I say this as sort of like an elder millennial centennial myself, that, you know, I know a lot of people that kind of fell into this place.
I know a lot of millennials that didn't, but I know a lot of millennials that fell into this.
And what I've noticed is that all of these people, they lack families, they lack a spiritual core.
But at the same time, I got to throw also throw out there that they Basically came into a world where everything they were promised became a giant lie and they realized that going to college and getting into debt and never being able to have a family never being able to afford a home never being able to generate wealth In the way, at least, that was originally described to you or laid out for you in your teenage years, it was all a complete lie.
And so now they're realizing, as millennials are now looking at 40, saying, hey, wait a minute, all of the things that I thought I was going to have at this point are not happening.
So they're one of the most depressed generations that exists.
And as they say, depression is anger turned inwards.
And so, the idea from all of this is that there's actually a powder keg of anger, bitterness, rage, really, within most Millennials.
So, in addition to also being the most bubble-wrapped, paranoid generation that you can see, and it's just amazing to me, so that it's like, Generation Me is now becoming Generation Never Was.
I don't know, what do you think when you look at this video?
No, listen, I think there's a lot to unpack here.
Like you said, I think I'll try to divide it in two parts.
I'll start with the beginning.
I mean, listen, I think it's a reflection of the sort of millennial nihilism that has taken over that generation's culture, a generation I'm a part of, because they are a lost generation.
They're lost in many ways, economically, which you were touching on, spiritually, culturally and otherwise.
And you look at this little video, this little viral video that, you know, maybe at first glance seems harmless, but it kind of reveals like a deeper, more kind of dark nature of what this generation is facing.
I mean, you talked about, you know, everything from her flat a fat voice, the vapidness of it all.
Just they don't even look like they're having fun.
Everything seems very forced.
Everything seems very joyless.
You know, I don't think they could actually talk about anything interesting for fear of, you know, possibly triggering someone in the room.
It's all just cringe, like you said, but it's also sad.
We can make fun of it.
But I think it's just a little sad.
And it just goes to show how lost this generation has become.
And you know, I think it's not that it's not that the generation You know what, just to add that, it's not that they can't feel joy, it's that they can't feel anything.
Correct.
It's it's it's the it's the generation of antidepressants.
It's the generation of big pharma.
I mean, there's a whole litany of issues here, whether it's you know, the actual things that they were digesting or the culture that they were exposed to nature versus nurture, however you want to divvy it up, you know, and some of this is a result of their own actions.
I mean, not every millennial has ended up like this.
But I agree with the tail end of what you were saying in the opening of this segment, that a lot of this is also because they were promised things that actually did not materialize, they were promised a world They were promised a life that didn't happen.
They did the things, they checked the boxes, they were told to check, and they're still miserable, lonely, and unfulfilled because of them.
And that was an experiment.
This was this postmodern experiment of the boomer generation.
And we're seeing the results in real time.
And we're seeing the results in real time.
We're seeing a very just kind of soulless generation, a corporatized generation, ones that are very disconnected, atomized, isolated.
We're seeing a very just kind of soulless generation, a corporatized generation, ones that are, you know, very disconnected, atomized, isolated.
The exact type of traits you would want a population to be if your goal is to really control and suppress them.
You know, the exact type of traits you would want a population to be if your goal is to really control and suppress them.
So, you know, we could get into the macro level implications of this all.
But I think this video, it's like a lot of these videos that have gone viral over the last few years, whether it was the video of, you know, the women in corporate America in Silicon Valley or whatever else.
It just kind of shows an emptiness.
And a lot of these videos are almost like cries for help, just like, please, someone help us and wake us up from this slumber.
Please give us a transcendence.
Please give us some higher purpose, some higher meaning.
And I think metaphysically, you know, philosophically, that's what it comes down to.
They have no transcendence.
They have no higher purpose or higher, you know, higher meaning.
That's why, you know, you look at these to late 30s and, you know, they're acting like people that are maybe in high school or college.
You know, it's kind of like this, you know, this this man child, you know, syndrome, this sort of like, you know, and you know what that is of society.
And we're witnessing it here.
Yeah, and the reason for that is because economically they are still economically stuck in the millennial malaise.
So millennial malaise is because they are economically stuck in their early 20s and that is why they are emotionally stuck in their early 20s.
And so depression, anxiety, all of these things rise when reality does not match your expectations.
And the reality for so many Millennials does not match their expectations.
And this produces a really toxic cauldron and a powder keg.
And this is why, of course, it's all escapism.
This is all escapism and just retreating to these sort of, like, never-ending, open-ended trends that never go anywhere.
Right?
But it's more than just nostalgia.
It's like trying to wrap... Yes.
Yes.
It is porn.
They're all trying to escape to a time past, to a yesteryear, to the America that they were born in and no longer exists.
And again, I have sympathy with that.
And they're retreating almost to their childhood, because their childhood still felt normal.
It was the last vestiges of normal, probably in the 1990s, I'm assuming.
And they're trying to return to that.
The motifs, the themes, the ideas, the characters, Tom Hanks, whatever it may be.
of that era because it was the last time that they felt sort of in sync with the time, in sync with their age.
And I agree with you.
Economics has a huge part to play with it.
The destruction of the church, the destruction of the family, the destruction of anything bigger than oneself.
And what is the Republican vision or the Democrat vision to help them?
There is nothing.
There's nothing.
We need a visionary movement.
Well, I'll tell you what, though, there is, and we'll get into it in the next segment here, but there is, the MAGA movement has one, but I would also warn that the DSA, A, the socialists of America have one as well, and that's the real danger.
Coming up next, Gavin Wax.
I'm working long hours.
I'm always listening to Human Events with Jack Posobiec.
So, Gavin, this is, you know, something that we've been talking about here.
We're at Human Events Daily back with Jack Pasubic.
Gavin Wack, we're talking about the millennial malaise that leads to things like Thanksgiving.
These people who seek escapism and memes that get beaten to death.
They are iterated on eternally.
Everyone's conditioned to only iterate on previous ideas.
You're not allowed to create something new.
You're not allowed to make something new.
You're not allowed to have new ideas at all, whatever, unless it's something that's, like, vetted and carefully presented for you.
But I want to also ask Gavin, because when I, you know, most Millennials, and I think people don't understand this, just how bad the student debt crisis is and continues to be for Millennials and even Zoomers now, that this is a situation because of the economics that have really just tanked.
So you have, Millennials are saddled with student debt.
They already can't afford housing.
The housing market is completely collapsed.
Rent is through the roof everywhere.
And now, Bidenflation, on top of all that, is through the roof.
While they can see people, they've got no chance to win, no out, and they can see people who are living well.
They're living in the shadow of empire.
Well, guess what?
Socialism is the politics of resentment.
Marxism is the politics of resentment.
All of Marxism is based in envy and greed.
And so, when I look at a situation like this, My sense is, and my warning for everyone in concern, is that what happens if a charismatic Hugo Chavez-type figure arrives in the American political discourse and starts going to the Millennials?
They wanted to use AOC for this, and obviously that didn't quite work out, but you can certainly see that there is a huge, huge lane It's a huge possibility, and I think you're bringing up a broader point that, you know, many circles of the far left, they at least present a future vision.
They present some kind of vision for society.
It's a utopian vision.
as millennials become more and more prominent in American politics? - It's a huge possibility.
And I think you're bringing up a broader point that many circles of the far left, they at least present a future vision.
They present some kind of vision for society.
It's a utopian vision.
It's a fake vision.
It's not something that can actually be realized, but I at least give them credit that they paint a picture of the future Far too often, you know, conservatives and Republicans are simply, you know, talking about, you know, the minute details.
They're talking very much the here and now.
They're talking in very just sort of small terms.
They're not really painting a picture of the future.
They're not really presenting an alternative.
They're generally against something rather than being for something, or they're simply trying to preserve a status quo, which I think the vast majority of people are sick of.
What we really need is a visionary style populist leadership, something that Trump is actually embracing and actually it's working on, something that supports family formation, something that supports, you know, having children, a sort of natalism, giving them the opportunity to have homes again, giving them opportunity to have good, high paying jobs again, where their purchasing giving them opportunity to have good, high paying jobs again, where their purchasing power is rising because we push We push back against these trade imbalances.
We bring jobs back home.
You don't have to move to the big city to get a decent paying job.
You could still work in your hometown and have the life your parents and grandparents had.
Which was generally a pretty prosperous one and one of upward social mobility.
You can create a picture like that.
You can paint that future.
You can show them a future where there is meaning, where there's tradition, where there's God, where there's family.
You can paint that picture, but we choose not to do it.
Instead, most Republicans and conservatives, they talk about mundane things.
They talk about foreign interventionism.
They talk about, you know, the occasional tax cut, but they're not really visionary.
They're just kind of robotic.
We've seen that on the debate stage.
But the left, to their credit, does paint this picture, the Green New Deal, whatever it is.
I am somewhat optimistic that the left also has a problem with producing great leaders, great men, people that could actually take the torch and move forward.
Because the leftism that sort of infected the developed Western world is this kind of safe, self-hating leftism.
It's this nihilistic leftism.
It's this leftism that, yes, it takes on the economic elements of socialism and Marxism, whatever it is.
But it's incapable of creating great leaders.
Everything is done by committee.
Everything is done by groupthink.
Weakness is elevated above strength.
So you're never really going to get someone like a Hugo Chavez or some of these Latin American style strongmen, which I think would be successful in the United States if the left were to embrace a more left wing, economically populist, but more socially moderate, socially conservative viewpoint.
I think that's actually a threatening coalition, especially given migratory trends and demographic trends.
But they're incapable of producing that.
Instead, the only kind of leader they can produce, not really a leader, is kind of like this Karen matriarch, kind of smarmy school mom, like we saw in the Irish parliament talking about censoring It's all long housing.
Yeah, exactly.
That's the only kind of Orwellian style, quote unquote leader that they'll ever be able to create.
But that's not something that's inspiring enough to create a movement.
Yeah, exactly.
Their only goal right now is to erode everything.
I mean, Ireland is totally gassed.
Totally gassed.
Ireland's totally gassed.
I mean, just like the regime has their hooks in there.
And I hope in my heart of hearts that Ireland wakes up and listens to Conor McGregor and stands up.
I want Ireland to be Irish again.
Make Ireland Irish again.
Where's the Irish?
That you hear about, that fought back against the British, that fought for their freedom, that when you actually have something to fight for, when you have a little bit of, you know, this will get me on media matters, but maybe a little bit of tribalism isn't a bad thing.
Because you're actually fighting for something, rather than having Thanksgiving, which is just a bunch of nothing.
At least you have something to fight for.
Ireland's a great country.
It's a beautiful country.
It's got an incredible history, incredible culture.
Why not fight for that when you've got Muslim migrants in the streets stabbing your children when the blood of Irish children is lining the cobblestone streets of Dublin?
Do you think the people are actually going to do anything?
It's a simple question.
But Gavin, when I talk about the vision, it's not enough for the vision.
Let's talk about high-trust, stable neighborhoods where children are able to go to school and live in the traditions that their parents lived in that their forefathers lived in where they don't have to move because of crime they don't lose their towns because of crime let's and by the way let's talk about new cities new cities that are built in terms of freedom cities cities that are without All of the regulations and decay and insanity that the old cities have turned into.
And by the way, let's talk about how having a four-day work week in our freedom cities because we're all living fat and happy off of the massive buying power of the US dollar after we tariff the hell out of China.
Listen, I love all that, and that's something that Trump has been brilliantly bringing to the forefront.
These are not exactly items or topics that are part of the popular discourse, but he's talking about them.
He's bringing them to the front and center so people can actually think about it and realize that there are alternatives to the sort of societal malaise and societal, you know, degrade that we've been witnessing across the broader Western world.
Gavin, real quick, we're about to be out of time.
Do you have anything going on where people can come see you coming up soon?
Yes, we have the 111th Annual Gala.
Congressman Matt Gaetz, Jack Masovic, many other great conservative speakers.
December 9th, Cipriani Wall Street, New York City.
We have a Cyber Monday sale today.
Get your tickets.
They're never going to be cheaper.
And my book comes out, The Emerging Populist Majority, January 23rd of next year.
