In this episode of From One to Wicked, we unravel the chilling and complex story of the so-called Zizian Cult.At the center of this tangled narrative is Ziz—formerly known as Jack LaSota—a vegan computer scientist and former member of the rationalist movement, who some claim is the enigmatic leader of an anarchist offshoot of rationalist philosophy. Others argue she is merely a controversial figure in a decentralized network of ideologically driven individuals.Key Moments We Cover:-Ziz’s rise within the rationalist community and her obsession with morality, psychology, and AI risk.-The formation of a “rationalist fleet”—a group living on boats and in vans, allegedly trying to build a utopian community.-Arrests, protests, and the infamous 2019 confrontation with SWAT at a Bay Area retreat.-The violent showdown with landlord Curtis Lind, resulting in a brutal sword attack and fatal shooting.-The mysterious “death” of Ziz in 2022—was it real, or an elaborate deception?-A shocking web of crimes, from alleged cult manipulation to homicides across multiple states.-The FBI's ongoing investigation into the shadowy figures who continue to evade law enforcement.
