Jennifer Bilek is an American blogger, journalist, anti-transgender activist and conspiracy theorist. She is best known for publishing her anti-transgender blog, The 11th Hour. She also frequently contributes to right wing political news outlets like The Federalist and The American Conservative.

Transgender is not a type of person. It is the conglomerate name for an array of corporate pressures which groom children and adults for industrial body dissociation, thus opening humanity to further corporate encroachments into our bodies. It is the colonization of humans, directly targeting the next generation.

Bilek, for The American Mind, 3 March 2023

Work

According to Bilek’s LinkedIn, she has been an oil painter since 1993 as well as the owner of a mobile hair salon, Get Coiffed, since 2004.

Writing

Bilek has written for conservative online magazine The Federalist on multiple occasions.

Her first article was published in February of 2018. In this article she describes having been “deplatformed” by transgender rights advocates in 2013, and suggests that the entirety of transgender healthcare and the transgender community are fabricated and funded by Jewish people. She explicitly names Jewish transgender women Martine Rothblatt and Jennfier Pritzker (who she misgenders), as well as George Soros and multiple men she identifies as gay. She goes on to paint philanthropic efforts for the transgender community as a conspiracy to “compel speech” and “change laws.”

In July of 2018, Bilek published her second article in The Federalist. In it, she states that children are being “sterilized” and “groomed” by gender clinics in America. She also compares being transgender to police violence and the prison industrial complex, suggesting that advocacy for the transgender community is not a civil rights movement.

Bilek has also been published in religious journal First Things, drawing more connections between various gay and Jewish philanthropists and the transgender community. She has also frequently been republished by RealClear Policy.

The 11th Hour and Connections to Other Anti-Transgender Activists

Bilek registered the website for her blog, The 11th Hour, in October of 2019. She posted her first entry to the site, titled “Constructing the Legal Lie of the Transgender Child,” in January of 2020. In that article, she suggests that transgender children do not exist, based on an article by James Kirkup, a writer for conservative UK-based magazine The Spectator. Kirkup’s article concerned a report regarding the state of laws and advocacy for queer youth by The International Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer & Intersex Youth and Student Organisation, which he framed as “the tactics of trans lobbyists.”

Bilek’s posts on The 11th Hour are frequently cited by other anti-transgender activists, such as Christian Post writer Brandon Showalter  She has also appeared on Showalter’s anti-transgender podcast, Generation Indoctrination. Her work has also been promoted by André van Mol, a member of the anti-transgender organization American College of Pediatricians (ACPeds), and UK anti-transgender activist and founder of anti-transgender organization Standing for Women, Kellie-Jay Keen-Minshull.

In July of 2021, Bilek accused UK anti-transgender activist and writer Helen Joyce of plagiarizing her work from a 2020 interview Joyce had conducted with her. Joyce, who has spoken openly about her belief that the number of transgender people in the world needs to be reduced, published a rebuttal on her own website claiming that she had not plagiarized any of Bilek’s work.

Conspiracy Theorist

Bilek has repeatedly promoted antisemitic conspiracy theories in regards to the transgender community and its supporters. In January of 2021, she shared the work of white nationalist antisemite Keith Woods. She has also publicly shown support for David Icke, a UK conspiracy theorist who believes the world is controlled by shape shifting lizard people, a common antisemitic conspiracy theory.
