Trans icons Alex Consani and Vivian Wilson have delivered their verdict on people with no political beliefs, calling them, “dumb as f**k”.
Alex Consani made history as one of the first out trans models to walk the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show and win the 2024 Model of the Year gong. Wilson is the estranged trans child and outspoken critic of tech billionaire Elon Musk.
In a far-ranging interview in the latest issue of Dazed, the model, 22, and influencer/performer, 21, discussed everything from using humour as a coping mechanism to the future.
In one section the pair discussed navigating politics in 2025. Asked if they ever feel restricted Wilson offered, “I’m unhinged as hell,” adding that people expect “long-ass political rants” from her.
“I’m unhinged in a different way,” said Consani who went on to say that it can be hard to have conversations without it creating “more hate towards my identity as a trans person.” However, the model continued, “I will always talk about politics, it’s just about doing it in a way that means something to the actual cause that I’m speaking about.”
The pair agreed that, “everyone’s a political figure” in 2025. Consani then touched on how some people “like to be in a bubble of comfort, or a bubble of privilege,” specifying rich white cisgendered people.
“I entirely agree with that,” added Wilson who also said, “There’s not really a way to be like, ‘Oh, I don’t get into politics. I’m politically neutral.’ That’s not a thing in 2025.” Struggling for a label, Consani jumped in calling ‘politically neutral’ people, “inherently a dumb-ass bitch!” She then repeated, “You’re dumb as f**k. It’s so stupid.”
Wilson stood by her 100%. “I was trying to find a nice way to say it but, yeah, pretty much,” she said.
Offering some last words on the matter, Alex Consani said, “being uncensored is an inherent part of being trans. Our identities are already something that we have to fight for, and you kind of just have to say ‘f**k it’ and speak about what you believe in, because you’re not going to change who you are, right?”
