The Left Eats Its Own: Wiener's Sad Eyes and the Gaza Ultimatum
At 1:20:24 · chapter starts 1:15:30
Kelly and Burguiere dig deeper into the Scott Wiener confrontation, with Kelly reading Rich Lowry's NR essay positing that Wiener's tormentors conceive of queerness as revolt against all oppressive orders — and of Israel as Western, white, and settler-colonialist, making Zionism as threatening to their worldview as the gender binary. This is not, Lowry argues, fundamentally about Gaza — it's about race. Burguiere notes that the word 'queer' has been repurposed to mean 'ideologically correct' rather than anything about sexual orientation. A second clip shows Wiener being confronted at a San Francisco bar and chased out of his neighborhood by a man demanding he say 'Free Palestine' on camera. Wiener stays silent throughout, his response limited to 'sad puppy dog eyes,' as Lowry characterizes it. Kelly reads Wiener's public statement — 22 years of Trans March attendance, 'trans siblings,' 'right-wing extremists,' et cetera — as a failed attempt to remind his tormentors of his progressive credentials. She and Burguiere agree: the mob cannot be appeased, and Wiener built that mob.

National Review's Rich Lowry explains why pro-Palestinian activists see supporting Israel as a betrayal of queerness: they conceive of queerness as revolt against oppression, and view Israel as Western, white, and settler-colonialist — making it as bad as the gender binary in their framework. It's race theory, not Gaza policy.
San Francisco politician Scott Wiener stated he has attended the Trans March every year for the past 22 years since the first march in 2004.
