Wiki says : Zoltan Istvan Gyurko,[1] professionally known as Zoltan Istvan (born March 30, 1973), is an American transhumanist,[2] journalist,[3] entrepreneur,[4][5] and futurist.[6][7]
Formerly a reporter for the National Geographic Channel,[8] Istvan now writes futurist, transhumanist, secular, and political themed articles for major media, including The New York Times,[9] Vice's Motherboard,[10] Wired,[11] The Huffington Post,[12] TechCrunch[13] and Newsweek.[14] Istvan regularly appears on television and video channels discussing futurist topics.[15][16][17] He is widely perceived as one of the world's most influential transhumanists and believes transhumanism will grow into a mainstream social movement in the next decade.[15][16][18] Istvan is the author of The Transhumanist Wager, a philosophical science fiction novel.[19][20]
In late 2014, Istvan announced his intent to run for President of the United States in the 2016 election. He ran for his own Transhumanist Party to raise awareness for transhumanist politics issues.[21]
In 2017, Istvan announced his intent to run for Governor of California in the 2018 election as a member of the Libertarian Party.[6][22]
In November 2019, Istvan announced his candidacy for the Republican Party's nomination in the 2020 United States presidential election, hoping to win the GOP nomination against President Donald Trump.[23]
Probably someone who identifies as an alien.
Only “Zoltan” I’ve ever heard of is Zoltan Szabo. I have a painting of his.
A common Hungarian name derived from “Sultan”, dating back to the Ottoman domination of eastern Europe.
Zoltan Istvan/Marianne Williamson would make an ideal ticket.
Transhumanist
Somebody who believes that all human beings should have sex changes?
;-P
Someone who wants to “transcend” being human, whether that be by cybernetic, pharmacological, genetic, or other sorts of manipulations to the human mind and body.
Don’t mess with the Zoltan!
Esteban. Another Pittsburgh boy who made good.
Obviously a Cis-gendered bigot. If it was truly trans anything, they would be using proper fluid pronouns.
I didn’t know he’s from Pittsburgh!
After Biden drops out, the Never-Trumpers can support this guy.
Who?
I just looked at some of his watercolors...very nice.
And Istvan means Stephen, Hungary's first king.
That wasn’t the guy Johnny Carson used to play when he gave answers to questions never asked, is it?
