TRANSSEXUAL, TRANSGENDER, TRANSHUMAN

Jennifer Bilek is an investigative journalist who has tracked the funding of the gender industry for over a decade on her platform The 11th Hour, from which these 27 dispatches are re-printed. To say that the book is informatively eye-opening would be an understatement, and here is an extract from a recent Substack post:

‘Transsexual, transgender, and transhuman are interconnected systems of power that adapt our perceptions of ourselves as a species to the advancing technologies in human reproduction. When we analyse the social changes that accommodate individuals attempting to transcend their sexed reality—and thereby their humanity—through this framework, we can begin to understand the unfolding transformations that are often obscured from our view.

These systems, intertwined with technology, are not merely about individual choices; they are about reshaping societal and species-wide perceptions. They promote the dissolution of the sex binary and the transcendence of humanity through technology.’

The key phrase refers to the reshaping and institutionalisation of societal and species-wide perceptions and dissolving the binary of men and women with an ultimate view to merging humans with machines, and to artificial reproduction. The author pulls no punches in her forensic analysis of the background of what is both an industry and a lobby acting as a form of cult indoctrination with its ideological message that the human sex boundary between males and females is simply a social construct. For Bilek, the gender industry ‘is the promotion of the adult male fetish of transsexualism, rebranded for today’s youth, grooming them for industrial body dissociation’ - and gender dysphoria, whereby disowning sexed reality is framed as progressive. This agenda is advanced as a human rights campaign, while hijacking the original LGB acronym.

There has been a simultaneous rise in environmental, social and corporate governance (ESG) diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) policies, the latter informed with gender identity ideology. All this is now embedded within the LGBT human rights political infrastructure that dictates social behaviour. Gender ideology crucially ‘positions the dissociation from sexed reality as a right.’ And as readers will probably be aware, trans activists are militantly intolerant of any dissent, even going so far as terrorising women athletes speaking out against unfair trans competition – a recent study by the UN found that trans competitors had deprived normal women competitors of up to 900 medals. Women’s rights campaign Kellie-Jay Keen has been brutally vilified and de-platformed for making the claim – also made by J. K. Rowling – that women are adult human females. Our language has been overhauled with new pronouns, ‘and a near tyrannical assault on those who did not use them.’ (p. 18)

Bilek explains the key figures and foundations funding the transgender movement, including Jennifer Pritzker (a male who identifies as transgender), Martine Rothblatt (a male who identifies as transgender and transhumanist – see Chapter 8), and gay men Tim Gill (The Gill Foundation), Mark Bonham and Jon Stryker (The Arcus Foundation). 2017-2018 global expenditure was $560 million, funding organisations, medical facilities, and legal campaigns. There is now a massive and expanding medical and technological infrastructure in the context of expanding markets for changing the human body, ‘pushing synthetic sex surgeries as positive human progression and normal human expression.’ (p. 38) In the process, women are being erased linguistically and legally with a corporate assault on humans as a biologically, sexually dimorphic species: ‘Women are losing the language specific to their biology and are now called birthing people, menstruators, and chest feeders to be inclusive of men. This is dehumanising, and that’s no accident.’ (p. 35) Moreover, ‘if men can legally be women, then women cease to exist as a category’ (p. 127)

Bilek writes that Western societies are in the vortex of transhumanism, with its eugenicist underpinnings obscured by a popular LGB human rights veneer, whereby the word transgenderism acts ‘as a social bridge between transsexualism and transhumanism.’ (p. 49) A crucial next step towards the transhumanist goal ‘is to usurp human reproduction and move it into the tech sector’ by means of artificial wombs, removing the female human body from the process, with goodness knows what potential social and emotional consequences – all this will be framed as technological progress, in the name of ‘fertility equality.’ Synthetic sex surgery is expected to have a global market value of $1.5 billion by 2026, and $5 billion by 2030, figures that speak for themselves, even though there is now some medical pushback against such developments due to traumatic consequences. Bilek reminds the reader that ‘Life is connection. Sex is connection. Paraphilias are addiction, obsessiveness, rumination, control and objectification – and they destroy connection. They are anti-life.’ (p. 71)

I think I have said enough for readers to get the picture, and the format of blogs inevitably makes for some repetition, while this also reinforces the core messages and the far-reaching influence of the gender identity movement. There is a huge propaganda machine behind these developments, also designed to discredit anyone resisting gender identity ideology, by framing them as rabid, bigoted, far right and religious conservatives – a tactic that is becoming all too familiar. Front organisations now include the American Civil Liberties Union, but the real drivers are ideological and financial. Bilek’s courage and forthright essays are a stark warning of the dangers and momentum of these powerful social trends, and a vital source of background information enabling readers to understand the real dynamics play. The implications could hardly be more far-reaching, especially as the agenda is now becoming embedded in education, so that children can be marketed to at an earlier age.
