I often write about the many brave people who have stood up to and exposed the trans activists and gender cultists. From J.K. Rowling to Riley Gaines to Matt Walsh, there are a lot of people who we owe a great deal of gratitude for their work to protect children from indoctrination, sterilization, and mutilation. And they also are trying to protect adult women, whom the alphabet mafia is trying to erase.
I and everyone else at Twitchy will continue to write about these heroes, especially the bravest ones who were among the first to stand up and say not just 'No,' but 'Hell NO!'
They all have huge platforms and followings, though. Everyone across America (and most of the world) already knows their names and all of the good work they have done.
Today, I wanted to highlight an unsung hero, who could be -- and should be -- any one of us.
I don't know who 'Zac Attack Maniac' is. I don't even know his real name. All I know is what he shared in his bio. He is a father, an uncle, considers himself 'politically homeless,' he lives in New York, and he is a gay man.

For that matter, I don't know if the story he shared on X this week is even true. But it rang true enough to me that I wanted to share it as an example of how we all have the strength to stand up to bullies.
Here is the tale of Zac's recent trip aboard a New York Transit System shuttle bus:
[Warning for some NSFW language below.]
Currently on the shuttle bus, driving from the Park and Ride lot to the train station. A mother holding a baby, 6 months at the most, gets on right after me. After her, this HUGE mess of a trans-identified male gets on. He has to be at least 250 lbs and walks with a cane.

With that setting of the scene, we know it's only going to go downhill from here.
I’m sitting down a row behind the front area that is reserved for the disabled and elderly. The mother had her child in a stroller; she is told to sit up in that area by the driver. It takes her a moment to get situated; Jabba The Hun is getting impatient.
— Zac Attack Maniac (@zjbusch) May 28, 2025
'Jabba the Hun.' [Snicker.] Good one.
Now that she is settled in, Stay-Puffed has a look of pure shock that this woman sat down where she was told. He tells her that the seating is for people “like me.” I can’t help where my mind goes, and my face must have been showing it, because now his ire is towards me.
— Zac Attack Maniac (@zjbusch) May 28, 2025
Uh-oh. It appears that Zac had inadvertently (but also probably inevitably) incurred the wrath of a deranged, cross-dressing elephant.
Always a dangerous situation.
“What’s so f*****g funny?!” I get a hot flash and I can’t stop the words from coming out of my mouth; “While the rest of the sane world thinks so, I don’t think being a troon qualifies as a disability. Leave her alone and get your a** in the back.” He’s now as red as an apple.
— Zac Attack Maniac (@zjbusch) May 28, 2025
Good for Zac. But now the battle had been engaged.
“I’m walking with a f*****g cane! Can’t you see?!” OK, touché, but now I’m in this; if you know me, I’m not going to back down. “Ah, I couldn’t see that behind the inappropriate skirt you’re wearing and your tree trunk sized legs, my apologies.”
— Zac Attack Maniac (@zjbusch) May 28, 2025
Let me pause for a second to talk about the cane.
Yes, someone with a cane is usually entitled to disabled seating. But no normal person ever asks a woman carrying an infant to relinquish those seats (especially, as we will find out later, when there are other available seats).
When I used to ride the Metro in DC every day, I would often see elderly men and women, some of whom were very frail and not too steady on their feet, give up their seats to a mother and her baby.
Anyone would do that. It's just called being a decent human being.
Anyone, that is, except an irrationally narcissistic 'trans woman.'
But back to the story.
He shuffles past the woman, hitting her stroller wheels with his cane as he walks past. He gets right in my face. The smell of sweat, used chicken wing grease, and Nag Champa incense immediately floods my nose. I stand up to meet him at eye level.

Zac has a real talent for painting a scene, doesn't he?
“They’re never going to pick a f*g like you,” he says. This is clearly a heterosexual transvestite male who probably calls himself a lesbian, by the way. These f**ks are getting way too comfortable using that word. “I don’t need to be picked, by them or by you.”
— Zac Attack Maniac (@zjbusch) May 28, 2025
No one hates gay people more than an acolyte of the gender cult. And they always hurl slurs at gays who don't fall in line.
This is why the LGB community is completely divorcing itself from 'TQ+.' As they should.
But Zac's reply is perfect. He doesn't need anyone's 'affirmation.' Trans activists, on the other hand, cannot survive without it.
The driver has had enough. We are both getting kicked off the shuttle bus. As I’m walking by, the mother mouths “thank you” to me; it makes having to walk in the rain worth it all. Humpty Dumpty can’t believe he’s also being asked to depart the shuttle.
— Zac Attack Maniac (@zjbusch) May 28, 2025
This is the best part of the entire story. This mother could not confront the whale who was demanding she give up her seat. She was holding and protecting her baby.
But she recognizes courage and knows to thank the one person on the bus who stood up to a bully for her.
Zac then provided a brief epilogue.
He gets let off at the next corner. He’s now videoing me. I’m just ignoring him, walking to the train terminal. If you guys see a video of me on the internet today or tomorrow, this is what happened. God knows what’s he’s saying right now.
— Zac Attack Maniac (@zjbusch) May 28, 2025
The videoing part is more than a little scary. I don't know for sure, of course, but I would feel safe betting money that the obese person was recording him so he could incite other trans activists against him on sight.
Watch your back, Zac.
He had a full bench seat opposite the mother & child in the same section; this could have all been avoided. Why are these people so f*****g entitled?! Whatever, I took his attention off the mother and got him off the shuttle; it’s a win in my book. I’m done staying quiet. 🤷♂️
— Zac Attack Maniac (@zjbusch) May 28, 2025
They are entitled because they are unhinged narcissists who will lash out at anyone who doesn't bend the knee to them.
But we should all be like Zac. We should all be done staying quiet when we see the crybullies accosting a fairly helpless woman (helpless in that moment with her baby, anyway).
This also happened just recently in Seattle, by the way, when a mob of Antifa and Trantifa thugs surrounded a mother who was holding her two children and trying to attend a Christian rally.

We wish there had been 100 Zacs there to protect that mother, since the Seattle mayor would have blamed the police if they intervened.
I wasn't the only one who thought Zac was a hero.
I freaking love you for this! pic.twitter.com/OciaROHSdS

Which is exactly what was happening here; she WAS being scared into submission! The look on her face killed me. That, combined with the bad day I was having, just made my intrusive thoughts pour out. I’m glad I was there and it was worth getting ejected from the shuttle!

Wow!!!
You’re a good man. Doing the right thing isn’t easy. Those people are frightening and aggressive.
👊🏻😎
As I said earlier, I have no idea who Zac is, but I agree that he is a good man. He and I probably have at least a few political differences, based on his bio, but that doesn't matter. We agree on one of the most important civilizational issues we are facing today:
The gender cult, which is just a new form of Marxism, is an existential threat. It is a threat to children and women the most, but it is also a threat to men (whether straight or gay) because it wants to destroy women, children, and families; and men are nothing without those.
Not only is Zac a good man, but he is also an example for all of us. We should all have the courage to stand up and say, 'NO!' when we see ANY kind of bullying, but especially when it comes to gigantic men wearing womanface trying to intimidate a REAL woman and her infant child.
So, I just wanted to take this opportunity to thank Zac. We will probably never meet in real life, but I am inspired by reading his short story of courage on a shuttle bus.
