Transgenderism
On the Corporate Takeover of Identity
Let’s start with this educational clip from South Park and “Erica” and his “royal flush.”
I’ve had a lot of new subscribers recently, so here is the list of material I have produced to date within the Transgender Agenda Series:
The Trans Test (Interview with Runa)
DeTransition (Interview with Walt Heyer)
This latest addition to the Series is a synthesis of some of Jennifer Bilek’s work (see References), the world’s leading investigative journalist on the subject.
If you are new to this terrain, I highly recommend my interview with Jennifer in the above list.
If you know about the Olympics Last Supper opening ceremony, you know that the Globalists mask is well and truly off. They are out in the open now and rubbing our noses in it.
None of this is accidental, and none of it is grassroots.
It’s a tsunami of money from above, with many objectives but primarily and explicitly with the intent of “rubbing out normal” and socially engineering the globe along new lines.
With thanks, again, to the incredible work of Jennifer Bilek.

Transsexual Transgender Transhuman: Dispatches from The 11th Hour: Bilek, Jennifer
Here are the top ten key points extracted from the 30 Q&As below:
The transgender movement is not an organic, grassroots movement for human rights, but rather an astroturfed industry driven by corporate and elite interests seeking to profit from the medicalization and commodification of sex and identity.
Powerful pharmaceutical, biotech, and tech companies are investing heavily in normalizing and promoting transgender ideology and medical transitions as a means to open up new markets and push the boundaries of what it means to be human.
The medicalization and promotion of "gender identity" is a key step towards the normalization of transhumanism and the melding of humans with technology, as it erodes the idea of biological sex as a fixed reality and presents the body as endlessly mutable.
Elite billionaires and philanthropists with ties to the medical and tech industries, such as Jennifer Pritzker, Jon Stryker, and Martine Rothblatt, are using their wealth and influence to shape laws, policies, and cultural attitudes in favor of transgender ideology.
The transgender movement is erasing women's rights, spaces, and ability to organize as a distinct political class by redefining "woman" as a subjective identity rather than a biological reality.
The medical industry is exploiting gender non-conforming children and young people by pushing life-altering hormonal and surgical interventions as the only acceptable treatment for gender dysphoria, without adequate research or informed consent.
Transgender ideology is being used to normalize the objectification and commodification of the body, particularly the female body, and to further the interests of industries that profit from the exploitation of women's reproductive capacity, such as surrogacy and egg harvesting.
The embrace of transgender ideology by the "new left" represents a cooptation of social justice rhetoric by corporate interests seeking to deflect criticism and pinkwash their exploitative practices.
The transgender movement shares disturbing parallels with the eugenic and transhumanist ideologies of the early 20th century, as both promote the idea of using science and technology to "perfect" the human body and transcend the limitations of biology.
Resistance to transgender ideology is not a matter of bigotry or hatred, but rather a necessary defense of objective reality, women's rights, and children's health against a powerful and well-funded campaign of disinformation and exploitation driven by corporate and elite interests.
30 Questions & Answers
What is the central argument made by Jennifer Bilek regarding the transgender movement and its ties to corporate interests?
Jennifer Bilek's central argument is that the transgender movement is not an organic social justice or human rights movement, but rather an astroturfed industry driven by corporate interests seeking to profit from the medicalization and commodification of human sex and identity. She contends that powerful elites in the pharmaceutical, medical, and tech industries are investing billions into promoting transgender ideology and normalizing medical "transitions" as a means to open up new markets and profit from the surgical and chemical alteration of healthy human bodies.
Bilek argues that by framing this medicalization as a matter of "human rights" and "diversity and inclusion," these corporate interests have co-opted well-meaning progressives and LGBT activists into supporting what amounts to the dehumanization and medical experimentation upon a generation of children and young adults. She sees the transgender movement not as an extension of gay rights or feminism, but as a corporate-driven assault on material reality, women's rights, and the integrity of the human body itself.
How does Bilek characterize the relationship between the transgender movement and the medical-industrial complex?
Bilek characterizes the relationship between the transgender movement and the medical-industrial complex as one of symbiotic profiteering, where a small group of elite billionaires and corporations fund transgender activist organizations and research to create a social and political climate conducive to the normalization of medical "transitions" and the pathologization of gender non-conformity. She argues that the medical-industrial complex, driven by the profit motive, then capitalizes on this cultural shift by expanding markets for puberty blockers, cross-sex hormones, cosmetic surgeries, and other medical interventions that were previously deemed too risky and unethical to perform on healthy bodies.
Bilek contends that this relationship is a quintessential example of "woke capitalism," where ostensibly progressive causes are co-opted by corporate interests to burnish their brands, defuse social criticism, and exploit new markets for biomedical commodities. By medicalizing and individualizing identity, corporations ensure a steady stream of paying patients seeking "gender-affirming care" while neatly sidestepping the material and societal factors driving the surge in gender dysphoria among young people.
According to Bilek, what role do Big Pharma, Big Tech, and the billionaire class play in promoting transgender ideology?
According to Bilek, Big Pharma, Big Tech, and the billionaire class play a pivotal role in bankrolling and promoting transgender ideology as a means to further their financial interests in the biomedical and technology sectors. She argues that pharmaceutical giants like Johnson & Johnson have a clear profit motive in marketing double mastectomies to dysphoric young women as "gender affirmation" and in pushing expensive GnRH agonist drugs like Lupron for off-label use in pediatric transition.
Bilek contends that Big Tech monopolies like Google are not only profiting from the boom in "femtech" and AI-assisted reproductive technologies that promise to make biological women obsolete, but are using their control over communication infrastructures to censor criticism of "gender identity" and popularize transhumanist ideologies that normalize disembodiment. She points to the investments of billionaires like Martine Rothblatt, Jennifer Pritzker, and Jon Stryker in both transgender medicine and AI/robotics ventures as evidence that the transgender movement is ultimately in service of a transhumanist agenda to transcend material reality and redefine what it means to be human.
How does Bilek describe the profit motives driving the growth of "gender clinics" and medical interventions for transgender individuals?
Bilek describes the profit motives driving the explosive growth of "gender clinics" and medical interventions for transgender individuals as rooted in the exploitation of a highly vulnerable patient population by a rapacious medical-industrial complex. She notes that the number of gender clinics worldwide has skyrocketed from just a handful a decade ago to hundreds today, despite longstanding ethical concerns and poor long-term outcomes associated with medical transition.
Bilek argues that by re-branding surgeries and drugs originally intended for adults with severe gender dysphoria as "gender-affirming care" appropriate for children and adolescents, clinicians and pharmaceutical companies have seized on a burgeoning youth market for expensive, lifelong medical interventions. She points out that these clinics routinely downplay the health risks and irreversible consequences of puberty blockers, cross-sex hormones, and genital surgeries while upselling procedures to dysphoric young people and their families as the only path to happiness and social acceptance.
What examples does Bilek provide of the high costs associated with puberty blockers and surgeries used in "gender-affirming care"?
Bilek provides several striking examples of the exorbitant costs associated with the puberty blockers and surgeries that constitute the bulk of "gender-affirming care" for transgender-identified youth. She cites research showing that the pediatric version of Lupron, a GnRH agonist drug used off-label to block puberty in dysphoric children, costs nearly $30,000 per year - more than twice the price of the adult version used to treat conditions like endometriosis and prostate cancer.
Bilek also highlights the jaw-dropping profit margins associated with genital surgeries and double mastectomies performed on transgender-identified individuals, which can run upwards of $100,000 per patient. She notes that a research firm projected that the U.S. market for "sex reassignment surgeries" will reach $1.5 billion annually by 2026, fueled by a combination of glowing media coverage, aggressive activist pressure on insurers and policymakers to cover procedures, and the growing social contagion of transgender identification among youth.
How does Bilek link the transgender movement to the interests of transhumanist and post-humanist ideologies?
Bilek draws a direct link between the transgender movement and the interests of transhumanist and post-humanist ideologies, arguing that transgender activists' insistence on the primacy of subjective "gender identity" over biological sex is a key stepping stone towards a future in which human beings are seen as infinitely mutable and in which material reality is dismissed as irrelevant. She contends that by normalizing the idea that one's body can be radically reshaped to conform to an internal sense of self, the transgender movement is priming society to accept more extreme forms of technological bodily modification and disembodiment.
Bilek points to the outsized influence within the transgender movement of transhumanist thinkers like Martine Rothblatt, who see transgenderism as paving the way for the eventual "uploading" of human consciousness into machines and the dissolution of humans' ties to the biological world. She argues that the same billionaires and corporations investing heavily in the normalization of medical transition are also pouring money into the development of artificial wombs, brain-computer interfaces, and other transhuman technologies that promise to "liberate" humanity from the limits of our biology.
What role does Bilek argue that influential LGBT organizations like the Gill Foundation and Arcus Foundation play in institutionalizing transgender ideology?
Bilek argues that influential LGBT organizations like the Gill Foundation and Arcus Foundation, backed by billionaires with deep ties to the biomedical and tech industries, play a central role in institutionalizing transgender ideology and in using the language of "human rights" to shield the gender industry from scrutiny. She notes that these foundations have funneled hundreds of millions of dollars into activist groups, academic institutions, and political lobbying efforts aimed at enshrining "gender identity" in the law and in popularizing the notion that medical transition is the only humane response to gender dysphoria.
Bilek contends that rather than representing the interests of marginalized "sexual minorities," groups like the Gill Foundation and Arcus Foundation are acting as the philanthropic arms of a much broader corporate agenda to normalize bodily dissociation and to create a social and legal environment conducive to the profiteering of the biomedical industry. She argues that by co-opting the rhetoric of civil rights and social justice, these elite-funded organizations provide a veneer of grassroots legitimacy to what is ultimately a top-down, astroturfed campaign to redefine humanity in service of technological and financial interests.
How does Bilek characterize the impact of transgender ideology and medical interventions on children and young people?
Bilek characterizes the impact of transgender ideology and medical interventions on children and young people as nothing short of catastrophic, arguing that an entire generation is being subjected to experimental, off-label drug treatments and irreversible surgeries with little regard for their long-term health and wellbeing. She points out that the vast majority of children and adolescents presenting with gender dysphoria have preexisting mental health issues, neurodevelopmental disorders, or histories of trauma that are likely driving their distress, but which are being ignored in the rush to "affirm" their transgender identities.
Bilek argues that by teaching young people that their bodies are "wrong" and in need of medical correction, transgender ideology is instilling a profound sense of self-loathing and alienation from the physical self that can have lifelong psychological consequences. She contends that the medicalization of gender-nonconforming youth is tantamount to a form of conversion therapy, enforcing rigid gender stereotypes and punishing deviation from them with drugs and surgeries. Bilek warns that the long-term effects of puberty blockers, cross-sex hormones, and genital surgeries on children's health and fertility are unknown, and that we are likely to see a tsunami of medical complications and regret as these youth enter adulthood.
According to Bilek, how is transgender ideology being used to erase women and redefine womanhood?
According to Bilek, transgender ideology is being used to systematically erase women and redefine womanhood as a subjective identity rather than a material reality rooted in biology. She argues that by insisting that "trans women are women," activists are effectively overriding the definitional boundaries of womanhood and reducing being female to a set of stereotypical gender roles and appearances that can be appropriated by male-bodied individuals.
Bilek points out that in the name of "inclusivity," women are being stripped of sex-based protections and forced to accept male-bodied individuals in female-only spaces like restrooms, locker rooms, prisons, and domestic violence shelters. She contends that transgender ideology is erasing women's hard-won rights to bodily privacy and safety, and is undermining the ability to organize and advocate for women's interests as a distinct class. Bilek argues that by redefining women as "birthing people," "menstruators," and "individuals with a cervix," trans activists are reducing women to their reproductive functions and denying the reality of female biology and embodiment.
What concerns does Bilek raise about the growing market for assisted reproductive technologies in relation to the transgender movement?
Bilek raises serious concerns about the growing market for assisted reproductive technologies (ARTs) like in-vitro fertilization, surrogacy, and artificial wombs, arguing that these industries are not only profiting from the medicalized sterilization of transgender-identified youth, but are actively invested in the normalization of transgenderism as a means to create new markets for their services. She points out that many of the same billionaire philanthropists and venture capitalists backing the transgender movement, like Martine Rothblatt and Pritzker family, are also heavily invested in ARTs and in technologies that promise to make biological reproduction obsolete.
Bilek contends that by promoting the idea that biological sex is irrelevant and that womanhood is a mere identity that can be assumed at will, transgender ideology is paving the way for the commodification and obsolescence of female reproductive labor. She argues that the end goal of many transgender activists and their billionaire backers is to create a world in which reproduction is divorced from the female body and in which women's unique role in the creation of life is erased. Bilek warns that the long-term consequences of this agenda, if left unchecked, will be the complete dehumanization of women and the transformation of human reproduction into a profit-driven technological enterprise controlled by a small elite.
How does Bilek describe the social and linguistic pressures to accept and normalize transgender ideology?
Bilek describes the social and linguistic pressures to accept and normalize transgender ideology as a form of gaslighting and thought control, in which individuals who question or resist the tenets of gender identity are swiftly punished with social ostracization, career damage, and even legal repercussions. She argues that transgender activists have successfully weaponized the language of "hate speech," "transphobia," and "violence" to silence critics and to create a climate of fear in which dissent is equated with bigotry.
Bilek points out that major media outlets, academic institutions, and professional organizations have all fallen in line with transgender ideology, creating an echo chamber in which alternative viewpoints are demonized and suppressed. She contends that by forcing the use of preferred pronouns, redefining the meanings of words like "man," "woman," "sex," and "gender," and labeling any acknowledgement of biological reality as "transphobic," activists are effectively compelling ideological conformity and eroding the very basis of rational discourse. Bilek argues that this linguistic and social manipulation is a key tactic in normalizing the idea that subjective identity trumps material reality, and in paving the way for more radical transhumanist ideas about the malleability of the human body.
What role does Bilek argue that elite billionaires like Jennifer Pritzker and Jon Stryker play in funding and promoting transgender ideology?
Bilek argues that elite billionaires like Jennifer Pritzker and Jon Stryker play a pivotal role in funding and promoting transgender ideology, using their vast wealth and influence to reshape laws, policies, and cultural attitudes in service of their own financial and ideological interests. She points out that Pritzker, an heir to the Hyatt hotel fortune and a trans-identified male, has funneled millions of dollars through their philanthropic foundation into academic programs, medical institutions, and activist groups that promote transgender medicalization and lobby for the legal enshrining of "gender identity."
Similarly, Bilek notes that Jon Stryker, heir to the Stryker medical device corporation and one of the richest people in the United States, has used his Arcus Foundation to pour hundreds of millions of dollars into normalizing transgenderism and into pushing gender identity policies at the national and international level. She contends that rather than representing the interests of a marginalized community, billionaires like Pritzker and Stryker are using transgender rights as a Trojan horse to advance a much broader agenda of bodily commodification, transhumanism, and technologically-facilitated social control. Bilek argues that the outsized role of these elites in shaping the transgender movement belies any notion of it being a grassroots push for human rights, and instead reveals it as a top-down campaign to re-engineer humanity in the interests of capital.
How does Bilek link the deconstruction of biological sex to corporate interests in biotechnology, AI and synthetic realities?
Bilek draws a direct link between the deconstruction of biological sex promoted by transgender ideology and the financial interests of corporations invested in biotechnology, artificial intelligence, and the creation of synthetic realities. She argues that by eroding the definitional boundaries of male and female and framing gender as a fluid spectrum of customizable identities, transgender activists are priming society to accept the commodification of the human body and the dissolution of humans' ties to the natural world.
Bilek points out that many of the same pharmaceutical, biotech, and tech companies that are profiting handsomely from the medical transition of transgender-identified individuals are also heavily invested in the development of artificially intelligent systems, brain-computer interfaces, virtual and augmented reality technologies, and other innovations that promise to merge humans with machines. She contends that by normalizing the idea that bodily characteristics are irrelevant to identity and that the self is infinitely mutable, transgender ideology is paving the way for the normalization of more radical forms of bodily modification and technological augmentation. Bilek argues that the ultimate endgame of this agenda is the creation of a posthuman future in which the organic human body is seen as obsolete and in which a small technocratic elite wields god-like powers to shape the nature of reality itself.
What parallels does Bilek draw between transgender ideology and religious or cult-like belief systems?
Bilek draws several striking parallels between transgender ideology and religious or cult-like belief systems, arguing that the movement exhibits many of the hallmarks of a zealous faith that is impervious to reason, evidence, or dissent. She points out that transgender activists often speak in quasi-religious terms about the need to "affirm" one's "true self" and to reject the physical reality of the body in favor of an ineffable, subjective sense of identity.
Bilek contends that like many cults, the transgender movement enforces rigid ideological conformity and punishes apostasy with social shunning, harassment, and even violence. She notes that individuals who detransition or who question the doctrine of gender identity are often subjected to intense pressure to recant their views and are smeared as traitors or heretics. Bilek argues that the insistence on unquestioning acceptance of transgender ideology, even in the face of contradictory evidence or logical inconsistencies, mirrors the demand for faith in religious dogma. She suggests that for many young people, transgender identification has become a form of secular religion, offering a sense of meaning, purpose, and moral righteousness in an increasingly atomized and nihilistic culture.
How does Bilek characterize the left's embrace of transgender ideology as a form of "diversity and inclusion" pushed by corporate interests?
Bilek characterizes the left's embrace of transgender ideology as a cynical co-optation of social justice rhetoric by corporate interests seeking to exploit the language of "diversity and inclusion" for their own financial gain. She argues that by framing the medicalization and commodification of gender non-conforming individuals as a matter of human rights and progressive values, corporations have successfully neutralized left-wing criticism and rebranded the exploitation of vulnerable communities as a form of liberation.
Bilek points out that many of the same companies now loudly proclaiming their support for transgender rights and "gender diversity" have long histories of labor abuses, environmental destruction, and complicity in human rights atrocities. She contends that by aligning themselves with the transgender movement, these corporations are able to pinkwash their reputations, deflect scrutiny of their unethical practices, and position themselves as moral arbiters in the marketplace. Bilek argues that the left's uncritical acceptance of transgender ideology as a social justice cause represents a profound failure of political analysis and a surrender to the very forces of capitalist exploitation and commodification that the left claims to oppose.
According to Bilek, how does transgender ideology pave the way for the normalization of transhumanism and the melding of humans with technology?
According to Bilek, transgender ideology serves as a key stepping stone towards the normalization of transhumanism and the melding of humans with technology by eroding the definitional boundaries of what it means to be human and by framing the body as infinitely mutable and customizable. She argues that by promoting the idea that one's subjective sense of self trumps the material reality of biological sex, transgender activists are priming society to accept more radical forms of bodily modification and technological augmentation.
Bilek points out that many of the same philanthropic foundations and tech moguls who are bankrolling the transgender movement, such as Martine Rothblatt and the Pritzker family, are also heavily invested in the development of artificial intelligence, brain-computer interfaces, and other technologies that promise to merge humans with machines. She contends that the transgender movement's emphasis on "self-identification" and the malleability of the body is perfectly aligned with the transhumanist goal of transcending the limitations of biology and achieving a sort of techno-immortality. Bilek argues that by normalizing the idea that the human body is a mere vessel for the mind and that identity is a matter of subjective choice, transgender ideology is paving the way for a future in which humans are viewed as infinitely upgradeable and in which the very essence of humanity is up for grabs.
What examples does Bilek provide of the development of bionic limbs, brain-computer interfaces, and other transhuman technologies?
Bilek provides several striking examples of the rapid development of bionic limbs, brain-computer interfaces, and other transhuman technologies that promise to blur the lines between human and machine. She points to the work of the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA), the Pentagon's avant-garde research arm, which is pouring millions of dollars into the development of high-tech prosthetics and exoskeletons that could give soldiers superhuman strength and endurance.
Bilek also highlights the pioneering research being done on brain-computer interfaces (BCIs), which allow individuals to control electronic devices and even robotic limbs using only their thoughts. She notes that companies like Elon Musk's Neuralink are working on developing implantable BCIs that could eventually allow humans to merge their minds with artificial intelligence and to access the internet and other digital networks directly from their brains. Bilek argues that these technologies, while ostensibly developed for medical or military purposes, are ultimately aimed at transforming the human species and at creating a new class of technologically-augmented transhumans who will wield unprecedented power over the rest of humanity.
How does Bilek link key transgender activists like Martine Rothblatt and Lynn Conway to the development of AI, robotics and transhuman technologies?
Bilek draws direct links between several key transgender activists and the development of artificial intelligence, robotics, and other transhuman technologies, arguing that these individuals are using their positions within the transgender movement to promote a much broader agenda of human-machine melding and techno-utopianism. She points to the example of Martine Rothblatt, a transgender-identified businessman and futurist who has poured millions of dollars into transgender causes and who is also heavily invested in the development of artificial intelligence, mind uploading, and space colonization.
Bilek notes that Rothblatt has explicitly advocated for the use of transgenderism as a "on-ramp" to transhumanism, and has argued that the blurring of gender boundaries is a necessary precursor to the blurring of the line between human and machine. Similarly, Bilek highlights the work of Lynn Conway, a transgender-identified computer scientist who played a key role in the development of microchip design and who also worked on early AI and robotics projects at DARPA. She contends that Conway, like Rothblatt, sees transgenderism as a way to normalize the idea of the human body and identity as infinitely mutable and upgradeable, and as a means of preparing society for the eventual merger of humans with machines. Bilek argues that the involvement of these and other tech-savvy transgender activists in the development of transhuman technologies reveals the ultimate endgame of the transgender movement: not the liberation of a marginalized identity group, but the complete transformation of the human species in the interests of a technocratic elite.
What role does Bilek argue that elite academic institutions play in legitimizing and institutionalizing transgender ideology and medical interventions?
Bilek argues that elite academic institutions play a crucial role in legitimizing and institutionalizing transgender ideology and medical interventions, using their prestige and scholarly authority to lend credibility to what she sees as a scientifically baseless and ethically dubious movement. She points out that many of the most influential proponents of transgender ideology, such as Johanna Olson-Kennedy and Jack Turban, hold positions at prestigious universities and medical schools, where they are able to shape the research agenda and influence the training of future clinicians and scholars.
Bilek also notes the proliferation of "gender studies" and "queer theory" programs at top universities, which she argues serve as ideological training grounds for transgender activists and as incubators for increasingly radical ideas about the deconstruction of sex and gender. She contends that by presenting transgender ideology as a legitimate field of academic inquiry and by framing medical transition as a cutting-edge, evidence-based treatment, elite universities are providing cover for what is essentially a profit-driven campaign of human experimentation and bodily commodification. Bilek argues that the capture of academia by transgender ideology represents a profound betrayal of the scholarly mission and a capitulation to the interests of Big Pharma and the biotech industry.
How does Bilek characterize the conflation of transgender identity with intersex conditions and homosexuality?
Bilek characterizes the conflation of transgender identity with intersex conditions and homosexuality as a deliberate tactic used by activists to lend legitimacy to their claims and to piggyback on the hard-won gains of the gay rights movement. She argues that by presenting transgenderism as a natural variation akin to being intersex or gay, activists are able to frame their demands for medical transition and legal recognition as a matter of immutable identity rather than as a controversial and poorly-understood phenomenon.
However, Bilek points out that there are crucial differences between transgenderism, intersex conditions, and homosexuality that make this conflation deeply misleading. She notes that while intersex individuals are born with genetically-determined variations in their sexual anatomy, transgender identity is based on a subjective sense of gender that may have no biological basis. Similarly, Bilek argues that homosexuality is an innate sexual orientation that does not involve any desire to change one's body or reject one's biological sex, whereas transgenderism is often predicated on the idea that one's body is "wrong" and in need of medical correction. She contends that by blurring these distinctions and by presenting transgenderism as an immutable identity, activists are able to shield their claims from scientific scrutiny and to secure legal protections and medical interventions that would otherwise be highly controversial.
What concerns does Bilek raise about the impact of internet pornography and sexual objectification on the normalization of transgender identities?
Bilek raises serious concerns about the role of internet pornography and the sexual objectification of women in fueling the normalization of transgender identities, particularly among young people. She argues that the ubiquity of hardcore porn and the mainstreaming of a hypersexualized, misogynistic culture have created a climate in which the boundaries between male and female are increasingly blurred and in which the commodification of the body is taken for granted.
Bilek points out that a significant number of young people, especially teenage girls, who identify as transgender report being exposed to pornography and sexually explicit material from a very young age. She contends that this early sexualization, combined with the relentless message that women's bodies exist for male consumption and pleasure, is leading many girls to dissociate from their female bodies and to seek escape in a male or non-binary identity. Bilek also notes the prevalence of autogynephilia, a male sexual fetish involving the fantasy of oneself as a woman, among many male-to-female transgender individuals, and argues that the normalization of this fetish through pornography is contributing to the rise of transgenderism among men. She warns that the sexual objectification and dehumanization of women in porn and popular culture is not only fueling the demand for medical transition, but is also eroding the very concept of womanhood as a distinct biological and social category.
How does Bilek describe the role of language in mainstreaming transgender ideology and erasing biological realities?
Bilek describes the manipulation of language as a key tactic used by transgender activists to mainstream their ideology and erase the biological realities of sex. She argues that by controlling the terms of discourse and by forcing the adoption of a new linguistic framework, activists are able to shape perceptions and stifle dissent in ways that would be impossible through rational argument alone.
Bilek points to the widespread insistence on using "preferred pronouns" and the redefinition of words like "man," "woman," "male," and "female" to refer to subjective identities rather than biological categories as clear examples of this linguistic manipulation. She contends that by compelling people to use language that denies the reality of biological sex and that treats gender identity as the only relevant characteristic, activists are able to create a social and legal environment in which it becomes impossible to even articulate dissenting views. Bilek also highlights the creation of new terms like "cisgender," "non-binary," and "assigned sex at birth" as part of a deliberate strategy to obscure the biological basis of sex and to present gender identity as the default mode of human existence. She argues that this linguistic engineering is not only Orwellian in its scope and ambition, but is also deeply dehumanizing in its reduction of women to their body parts and reproductive functions.
According to Bilek, how are transgender identities and medical interventions being framed as a matter of "human rights" and liberation?
According to Bilek, transgender identities and medical interventions are being strategically framed as matters of fundamental human rights and personal liberation in order to shield them from scrutiny and to secure legal protections and public funding. She argues that by presenting gender identity as an innate and immutable characteristic, akin to race or sexual orientation, activists are able to claim that any questioning or limitation of transgender medical interventions amounts to discrimination and a violation of individual autonomy.
Bilek points out that major LGBT rights organizations, as well as influential bodies like the World Professional Association for Transgender Health (WPATH), have aggressively promoted the idea that medical transition is a medically necessary and life-saving treatment for gender dysphoria, and that denying such treatment is tantamount to torture. She contends that this framing not only relies on a highly contested and scientifically dubious understanding of gender identity, but also ignores the serious health risks and irreversible consequences associated with hormonal and surgical interventions. Bilek argues that by presenting these interventions as a matter of human rights and liberation, rather than as a poorly understood and ethically fraught medical phenomenon, activists are able to bypass normal standards of evidence and informed consent, and to push for the widest possible access to transition services, including for children and adolescents.
What role does Bilek argue that the tech industry plays in censoring dissent and criticism of transgender ideology?
Bilek argues that the tech industry, particularly social media giants like Twitter, Facebook, and YouTube, plays a key role in censoring dissent and criticism of transgender ideology, using their control over online discourse to silence and marginalize anyone who questions the dominant narrative. She points out that these companies have increasingly adopted policies that treat any questioning of gender identity or opposition to medical transition as a form of "hate speech" or "transphobia," and have used these policies to justify the removal of content, the suspension of accounts, and even the banning of users from their platforms.
Bilek contends that this censorship not only has a chilling effect on free speech and open debate, but also serves to create an online environment in which transgender ideology appears to be universally accepted and beyond critique. She notes that many prominent critics of the transgender movement, including feminists, detransitioners, and concerned parents, have been subjected to coordinated harassment and mass reporting campaigns by transgender activists, often resulting in their removal from social media. Bilek argues that by silencing dissent and creating the illusion of consensus, the tech industry is not only enabling the spread of a scientifically and ethically dubious ideology, but is also contributing to the medicalization and sterilization of a generation of young people without adequate information or support.
How does Bilek characterize the embrace of transgender ideology by the "new left" as a cooptation by corporate interests?
Bilek characterizes the embrace of transgender ideology by the "new left" as a cynical cooptation of progressive rhetoric and social justice language by corporate interests seeking to exploit the public's goodwill and to deflect criticism of their unethical practices. She argues that by aligning themselves with the transgender movement and by presenting themselves as champions of "diversity and inclusion," companies are able to pinkwash their reputations and to present themselves as moral leaders, even as they engage in predatory and exploitative behaviors.
Bilek points out that many of the same corporations that are now loudly proclaiming their support for transgender rights, such as pharmaceutical giants, tech monopolies, and big banks, have long histories of environmental destruction, labor abuses, and human rights violations. She contends that by embracing transgender ideology as a fashionable and politically correct cause, these companies are able to divert attention from their own misdeeds and to position themselves as progressive and socially responsible actors. Bilek argues that the new left's uncritical acceptance of transgender ideology represents a profound failure of political analysis and a surrender to the very forces of capitalist exploitation and commodification that the left claims to oppose. She warns that by allowing itself to be coopted by corporate interests in this way, the left is not only betraying its own values, but is also enabling the further erosion of women's rights, the medicalization of children's bodies, and the advance of a transhumanist agenda that threatens the very foundations of human dignity and autonomy.
What parallels does Bilek draw between the transgender movement and the eugenic and transhumanist ideologies of the early 20th century?
Bilek draws disturbing parallels between the transgender movement and the eugenic and transhumanist ideologies that gained prominence in the early 20th century, arguing that both share a fundamental belief in the malleability and perfectibility of the human body, as well as a disdain for the limitations of biology. She points out that many early eugenicists, such as J.B.S. Haldane and Julian Huxley, were also enthusiastic proponents of transhumanism, and saw the use of science and technology to "improve" the human species as a logical extension of their eugenic goals.
Bilek contends that the transgender movement, with its emphasis on hormonal and surgical interventions to "correct" the supposed mismatch between body and mind, echoes the eugenic belief that the human body is a malleable object that can be shaped and optimized through technological means. She notes that many transgender activists explicitly reject the idea of bodily integrity and autonomy, and instead view the body as a mere vehicle for the expression of an internal "gender identity" that trumps biological reality. Bilek argues that this view is not only scientifically baseless, but also profoundly dehumanizing in its reduction of the body to a collection of parts to be modified and commodified at will. She warns that the transgender movement, like the eugenic and transhumanist movements before it, is paving the way for a future in which human beings are seen as infinitely customizable and upgradeable, and in which the very idea of a shared human nature is lost.
How does Bilek describe the normalization of surgical and chemical interventions on healthy bodies as a form of medical experimentation and commodification?
Bilek describes the normalization of surgical and chemical interventions on healthy bodies, particularly in the context of transgender medicine, as a form of reckless medical experimentation and commodification that prioritizes profits over patient well-being. She argues that by reframing these interventions as "gender-affirming care" and by presenting them as medically necessary treatments for a supposedly innate condition, the medical establishment is able to bypass normal ethical and scientific safeguards and to subject patients to risky and irreversible procedures without adequate oversight or informed consent.
Bilek points out that many of the hormonal and surgical interventions used in transgender medicine, such as puberty blockers, cross-sex hormones, and genital surgeries, have not been adequately studied for long-term safety and efficacy, especially in children and adolescents. She contends that by rushing to medicalize gender-nonconforming youth and by presenting transition as the only acceptable treatment for gender dysphoria, clinicians are essentially conducting a massive, uncontrolled experiment on a vulnerable population. Bilek also highlights the financial incentives driving the growth of the transgender medical industry, noting that surgeries and lifelong hormone treatments can be extremely lucrative for providers and pharmaceutical companies. She argues that the commodification of the body inherent in transgender medicine not only undermines the integrity of the medical profession, but also contributes to a broader cultural shift in which the human body is seen as just another product to be bought, sold, and modified at will.
According to Bilek, how does the transgender movement contribute to the objectification and dehumanization of women and the female body?
According to Bilek, the transgender movement contributes to the objectification and dehumanization of women and the female body in several key ways. First, she argues that by promoting the idea that womanhood is a mere feeling or identity that can be claimed by anyone, regardless of biological sex, the movement reduces being female to a set of stereotypical gender roles and appearances that can be appropriated and performed by male-bodied individuals. This not only erases the lived reality of women's experiences as a distinct biological class, but also reinforces regressive and sexist notions of what it means to be a woman.
Second, Bilek contends that the transgender movement's emphasis on hormonal and surgical interventions to "feminize" the male body amounts to a form of extreme bodily objectification, in which women's physical characteristics are reduced to a collection of parts and features to be imitated and consumed. She notes that many male-to-female transgender individuals seek to appropriate the most stereotypically sexualized aspects of female anatomy, such as breasts and genitalia, while showing little interest in the less glamorous realities of female embodiment, such as menstruation, pregnancy, and menopause. Bilek argues that this fetishistic approach to the female body not only demeans and dehumanizes women, but also contributes to a broader cultural climate in which women are valued primarily as sexual objects and reproductive vessels.
What does Bilek see as the ultimate endgame or logical conclusion of the transgender movement and its ties to transhumanism and post-humanism?
Bilek sees the ultimate endgame or logical conclusion of the transgender movement and its ties to transhumanism and post-humanism as nothing less than the complete abolition of the human species as we know it. She argues that by rejecting the biological reality of sex and by promoting the idea that the body is infinitely malleable and customizable, the transgender movement is paving the way for a future in which human beings are reduced to interchangeable and upgradeable parts, and in which the very idea of a shared human nature is lost.
Bilek contends that the transgender movement, with its emphasis on hormonal and surgical interventions to "correct" the supposed mismatch between body and mind, is just the first step in a much broader transhumanist agenda that seeks to use science and technology to fundamentally alter the human species. She points out that many of the same individuals and organizations promoting transgender ideology, such as Martine Rothblatt and the Pritzker family, are also heavily invested in the development of artificial intelligence, brain-computer interfaces, and other technologies that promise to blur the lines between human and machine. Bilek argues that the ultimate goal of this agenda is the creation of a "post-human" future in which human beings are replaced by technologically-enhanced transhumans, and in which the organic, embodied reality of human existence is dismissed as a mere relic of our evolutionary past. She warns that if left unchecked, this agenda threatens to undermine the very foundations of human dignity, autonomy, and identity, and to reduce human beings to little more than data points and raw materials for technological exploitation.
How does Bilek characterize resistance to transgender ideology as a fight for objective reality, women's rights, and children's health against corporate and elite interests?
Bilek characterizes resistance to transgender ideology as a vital and urgent fight for objective reality, women's rights, and children's health against the predatory and exploitative interests of corporations and elites. She argues that by rejecting the biological reality of sex and by promoting the medicalization and commodification of gender non-conformity, the transgender movement is not only perpetrating a massive scientific and ethical fraud, but also actively harming women, children, and society as a whole.
Bilek contends that the transgender movement's erasure of biological sex and its appropriation of women's rights and spaces amounts to a form of "female erasure" that undermines women's ability to organize and advocate for their own interests as a distinct class. She also points out that the aggressive promotion of hormonal and surgical interventions for gender non-conforming children amounts to a reckless and unethical experiment on vulnerable young people, one that risks causing lifelong harm to their health and well-being. Bilek argues that resisting transgender ideology is not a matter of bigotry or transphobia, but rather a necessary defense of objective reality and human rights against a powerful and well-funded campaign of disinformation and exploitation. She calls on women, parents, and all those who value science, reason, and ethics to speak out against the excesses of the transgender movement and to fight for a world in which the bodily integrity and autonomy of all individuals is respected and protected.

While this is of course all objectively true and the entire edifice of transgenderism is nothing more than a profit-driven psychodrama aimed at subverting or upending the classical order, it raises the unfortunate spectre that we have arrived at the terminal/predatory late stage of capitalism wherein the state has merged with the predator class of corporation and we are all the prey … if you had asked me just 5 years ago whether I thought we were hurtling towards a fascist, technocratic state I’d have politely smiled and thought you were mad. But here we are.
Woww! I had no idea Jennifer had a substack! Thanks for sharing that - I just subscribed to it! I read Jennifer's work YEARS ago and it shed plenty of light on this movement.
Here are a couple of pieces on the movement and the Olympics as you mentioned:
