(LifeSiteNews) — As investigative journalist Jennifer Bilek has detailed at length, the LGBT movement’s decades-long cultural takeover was fueled by massive amounts of funds provided by billionaires wielding staggering collective capital. In an interview on the dark money behind the LGBT movement in The European Conservative recently, Bilek detailed the scale of this funding:
Out Leadership is the business networking arm of the LGBTQI+, where those in the higher echelons of the LGBTQI+ political apparatus meet with others in the business communities to cross-market gender ideology. Out Leadership boasts a marketing constituency of $4.7 trillion, which they use as a cudgel to get other businesses in line with this ideology.
Considering the resources the LGBT movement has at its disposal, the accusations of LGBT activists that their opponents are well-funded become laughable gaslighting; conversely, the institutional and financial forces aligned behind the LGBT movement make the recent victories against transgender ideology all the more impressive. This truly is a David and Goliath fight, and David truly is fighting the giant with a slingshot.
What could the forces of sanity accomplish if we wielded even a fraction of the LGBT movement’s collective power and elite backing? Well, consider the impact of just two figures who changed the course of the debate around gender ideology: Elon Musk, and J.K. Rowling. Musk’s purchase of Twitter (now X) allowed the debate to actually take place; Rowling used his platform and her fame to singlehandedly defenestrate Scotland’s hate crime law and became a rallying figure for opponents of gender ideology.
Rowling’s net worth is estimated at between $1 billion and $1.2 billion, and she recently announced that she is upping her commitment to the fight against gender ideology by launching a private war chest called JK Rowling’s Women’s Fund (JKRWF), funded exclusively by her. According to the Daily Mail, this fund will be used to “bankroll legal cases for women who feel they have been discriminated against for their gender critical views,” and will “likely open the door to hundreds of applications from women who have lost their livelihoods or are facing employment tribunals because of their views on sex-based rights.”
Rowling has previously promised to fund other legal campaigns, and has openly offered funding on X. The fund has purportedly been operational since late last year; For Women Scotland, the group that launched the case which resulted in the Supreme Court’s clarification on the definition of “woman” in the Equality Act, posted their gratitude on April 17: “Thank you JK Rowling for this vital lifeline. Too many bodies, organisations, and companies – including the Scottish Government – are dragging their heels over implementing the law. When we said court cases were coming, it wasn’t an idle threat!”
Rowling emphasized that this is a personal effort, and that the JKRWF is “the most efficient, streamlined way” for her to fight the transgender movement: “Lots of people are offering to contribute, which I truly appreciate, but there are many other women’s rights organisations that could do with the money, so donate away, just not to me!” The fund will not be supplying legal services, but cash to fund legal fights. According to the website:
The J.K. Rowling Women’s Fund (JKRWF) offers legal funding support to individuals and organisations fighting to retain women’s sex-based rights in the workplace, in public life, and in protected female spaces. It provides women with the means and confidence to bring to justice cases that make legal precedents, force policy change, and make positive contributions to women’s lives in the future.
We fund legal representation for women and organisations who:
- Have lost their livelihoods or are facing tribunals because of their expressed beliefs
- Are being forced to comply with unreasonable inclusion policies regarding single sex spaces and services, or female-only clubs and events
- Are challenging legislation which takes away the freedoms or protections women are entitled to
- Don’t have adequate means to bring actions to court or to defend themselves
The impact that a single wealthy figure has had on the transgender debate emphasizes the need for a counter-revolutionary elite willing to wield institutional power and financial capital in the battle for sanity and the future of civilization. The LGBT movement’s success is due almost entirely to the vast resources at their disposal. Could they be beaten if the playing field was leveled? J.K. Rowling’s impact indicates that the answer is yes.
