Jack Posobiec hosted Passage Press Founder and CEO "Lomez" on Friday's episode of Human Events Daily to talk through the "blackpill" phenomenon that has been growing in America over the past couple of years.
Blackpillers, as Posobiec explained, are people who listen to dark conspiracies and are "wrapped up in despair" to the point where they don't believe any effort in the betterment of the US matters. They were previously infamously known as men who despise all women and have given up on trying to find a life partner in one. "Why will these people refuse to accept objectively positive information when it comes their way?" the host asked Lomez.
Lomez pointed out that this phenomenon does not only afflict the right wing as it initially was thought to have, but "humans across the board," particularly on social media and platforms such as X. Based on recent polling he saw, Lomez said, "I don't think the Trump coalition has ever been in a better position. Electorally, everything is trending in the right direction in the swing states."
He contemplated that many of these blackpillers were not in favor of Trump winning at some point and have given up upon seeing that he has the official Republican nomination. "They have a hard time then adjusting to a reality in which their preference doesn't look like it's going to come to fruition. And so rather than just look at things objectively, reevaluate and be happy that our guy is in a great position to succeed," Lomez said, "Rather than just commit now to winning, they want to hold on to this previous intellectual commitment that they have, and whether it's another candidate, like I said, or some other political project, and they just can't let it go."
Lomez stated we need to put blackpillers "into the crystals where they belong" and "into the phantom world" and focus on staying positive and spreading that positivity throughout the rest of the Republican party.
