I talk to Andy Ngo about his new book, The Zizians: Inside a Trans Death Cult, a secretive extremist group linked to multiple deaths and criminal investigations across the United States. We get into their origins in Silicon Valley's rationalist and effective altruist communities, their radical beliefs about AI, veganism, and the violence surrounding its members.
Let's get into it:
AOC was on the stump in Maine yesterday advocating for Troy Jackson's challenge to long-standing Senator Susan Collins, who notably has not missed a floor vote in the 30 years since she was first elected to office. We heard a while back that the Democrats were seeking to downplay their trans advocacy as Americans became increasingly skeptical of the trans movement, but AOC put her allegiance on full display as she took questions alongside Jackson in Portland.
In her rambling remarks—which, let's be honest, did not hold a candle to Kamala Harris' rambling remarks—she flattened the trans movement into the civil rights movement at large. Her false declaration is that the "fight" for trans rights is the same fight as that for all other allegedly oppressed people in the United States. "What is so important for everyone to understand is that the moment you compromise the rights of a trans person in America, you compromise the rights of every citizen in America," she said.
Now, it is key to note that there are no rights a trans person doesn't have. There is no legal discrimination against trans persons in employment, education, housing, transportation, or anything else. But Democrats use language of civil rights to try to push through and demand extra-legal exemptions for trans people and to claim their civil rights require that the rights of others be violated.
Trans advocates demand not that trans persons be allowed to compete in academic sports, which they are allowed, but that they be allowed to take opportunities from women and girls when they do so. They demand that prisoners not just receive medical care, which they get, but that taxpayers also fund elective, cosmetic surgeries, medications, and provide extra accommodations to support their delusions. They demand that the medical industry provide children with dangerous drugs and surgeries to support the false belief that they can literally change sex. None of this is about civil rights, all of it is about special accommodations.
AOC legit got out there and lied about what the objections are to these extras, claiming that the Trump administration is attacking Title IX when really they are restoring it after Joe Biden's mangling of it. Somehow she also linked it to the alleged gang rape case at Cornell, which is all Democrat mouthpieces' favorite talking point when they have no idea what they're talking about.
"I don't support the rights of trans people just to protect my own rights," she said, "but I support the rights for trans women because I'm a girl's girl, and I think that all of our bodily autonomy is tied together.
"The right to choose over our bodies is the right to choose over our bodies," she said nonsensically to cheers. "It really is united. I don't support the rights of trans people just to protect my own rights, but I support the rights of trans women because I'm a girl's girl, and I think that all of our bodily autonomy is tied together."
The thing is, that doesn't actually mean anything other than that she supports delusional men over women and thinks she looks cute while she's doing it. No matter how much the Democratic Party has been trying to play down their radicalism, attributing it to Woke 1, that's all nonsense. They are far-leftists who support the eradication of women under the law, open borders, mass migration, and a welfare state. Voters, beware.
