Scarlet Zanarkand

U.S. Transhumanist Party Virtual Enlightenment Salon with Join Steve for a wonderful conversation with Sophia. Sophia is a very talented musical artist and entertainer who brings the experience to the world in a unique and fascinating  fashion.
On Sunday, August 10, 2025, at 1 p.m. U.S. Pacific Time, the U.S. Transhumanist Party invites Scarlet Zanarkand to discuss areas of alignment and connection between the transhumanist and transgender movements and how the two movements can act as allies to satisfy shared objectives through advocating for individual freedom, science, and technology. She will also discuss what a more technological future may hold for persons who may wish to transform their identities in a variety of possible ways. 
Scarlet Zanarkand is a libertarian activist who runs the Transformation HQ server on Discord and advocates for both transgender persons and transhumanists and seeks to be a welcoming place for all individuals and allies of LGBTQ+ and other trans identities. The Transformation HQ server emphasizes personal autonomy, bioethics, and informed consent as core principles in both current and theoretical forms of transformation. 
Scarlet Zanarkand holds the view that all transhumanists are united by a common goal of transformation; whether that is to revert to our younger years, to gain an increase of health and ability, or to achieve some kind of alteration such as the idea of becoming a "cyborg" in the future. She believes that all trans identities will be made possible through technology associated with transhumanism and looks forward to seeing the progress.

Section II of the U.S. Transhumanist Party Platform - https://transhumanist-party.org/platform/ - “supports all acceptance, tolerance, and inclusivity of individuals and groups of all races, genders, classes, religions, creeds, and ideologies. Accordingly, the United States Transhumanist Party condemns any hostile discrimination or legal restrictions on the basis of national origin, skin color, birthplace, ancestry, gender identity, or any manner of circumstantial attribute tied to a person’s lineage or accident of birth.” 
Section VI of the U.S. Transhumanist Party Platform “upholds morphological freedom—the right to do with one’s physical attributes or intelligence whatever one wants so long as it does not directly harm others.”
Section XLIX of the USTP Platform also specifically supports the rights of transgender individuals. It reads as follows: “The United States Transhumanist Party supports efforts to increase autonomy of individuals to decide over their own bodies and holds that individuals should have the legal right to undertake procedures including gender reassignment, hysterectomies, vasectomies, technological augmentation, cosmetic alterations, genetic enhancements, and physical supplementation at or after the age of 18 years, as long as this does not create health hazards or threats to other individuals.”
