WATCH: Operation Choke Point 2.0

The spectre of Operation Choke Point 2.0 has just been raised in a recent House Financial Services Committee meeting. But what was Operation Choke Point 1.0? And why should we be concerned about this latest attempt to debank “disfavoured individuals,” anyway?

My Sister’s husband has developed software for pawn shops and the associated gold and foreign exchange activities. He’s also invested in some of the companies. They live in the UK.

(I don’t know the fine details but,) I’m told he’s facing difficulties with banking , both his business activities and also personally, in terms of remortgaging.

Sounds a wee bit similar to ‘operation choke point’.

I see there are quite a few “expert” comments regarding the no-virus/virus psyop doctrine. Good luck with that, folks. Perhaps more serious and less distracted types, will find this study germane. >

Excerpted from:Biodefense in the Age of Synthetic Biology
National Academies Press (US); June 19, 2018

Assessment of Concerns Related to Bioweapons that Alter the Human Host

“While we typically think about biodefense in terms of either pathogens (Chapter 4) or biochemicals (Chapter 5), technological advances are now making possible additional capabilities and means of attack that are more closely related to the human body itself.

The study included consideration of how increased knowledge about the microbiome and immune system may enable new means of delivering an agent; the potential for incursions into the human host through means not typical of pathogens or toxin-based bioweapons, such as through genetic modification; and how genes themselves may potentially be used as weapons.

While some of these potential activities overlap with the activities discussed in previous chapters, it is valuable to consider them from a host-centric angle to assess how advances in knowledge and biotechnology tools might further alter the landscape of vulnerabilities and weapons available for exploitation by malicious actors.”

Excerpted from the closing paragraph:

“In addition, threats related to horizontal gene transfer in synergy with the threats posed by pathogens may lead to new modes of attack. Just as clinical trials of immunotherapies are increasingly a roadmap for engineering cytokine storms, the increasing knowledge on gene deletions, gene additions, and small-RNA modifications of human cells may provide a roadmap for the induction of noninfectious disease states that could be abetted by pathogen engineering (and, conversely, that could abet the spread of the pathogens themselves, such as via immunodeficiency viruses).”

I don’t have any knowledge of biology to speak of and I’m too old and too busy to start acquiring it now, even if I were interested. The technical stuff surrounding viruses, genetics, and so on is beyond my comprehension even though I’ve looked into all of the usual suspects rather extensively. I can’t make the determination as to whether what the virus and non-virus people say is correct, hence is an open issue for me. I’ll say this though – I do have a pretty good knowledge of some other fields, for instance electronics. I’ve seen these Internet researchers make such preposterously ridiculous batshit fucking crazy claims based on stuff they’ve dug up somewhere but understood complete shit of, that if the same is the case with viruses, genetics, etc., then god have mercy!

Be that as it may, I keep my options open and I’ll consider any possibility.

I do see quite a few indications, however, that suggest that the promoters of the ‘there are no viruses’ theory are either shills or useful idiots. Likewise, there has been absolutely no response from anybody from the science community. People who actually work with the stuff as opposed to the naysayers who use carefully crafted logic that’s pretty much impossible to refute, but other than that, they got absolute shit to prove their point.

Anyway, my position vis-a-vis the COVID event has shifted somewhat lately.

Persons who deny the presence of viral cassettes within biological systems, have obviously never worked in a research setting, and are indeed being used as useful idiots.

Trillions of dollars have been invested toward biological studies these last 40 years. The evidence of active biological warfare is overwhelming and beyond reasonable dispute…

The signs are there, but falling trees ain’t it. FYI, I live in a forest and there are fallen trees all over the place. Spruce in particular are sensitive to high winds due to their height and disproportionately shallow roots.

The signs indicating the collapse of the Atlantic civilization are as follows:

The regurgitation of culture. Essentially nothing new has been created in the last half century. Culturally speaking, we live on stuff created in the past. Culture is stagnating, regressing. Pure creation is replaced with putrid decadence.

The purpose, values of this civilization – regardless of whether you count it as stretching from the beginning of Enlightenment or from the WWI/WWII combo, or even further back in history – have been perverted, inverted. They serve ends that are opposite to why they were created.

The whole circus is a shiny shell with putrefying rot right beneath the surface. Scratch the surface anywhere, and the shit comes out.

Some fucking trees have nothing to do with nothing. Use your brain for logical reasoning as opposed to coming up with all sorts of batshit fucking crazy mystical hallucinatory phantasms.

You offer quite a mixed bag. It’s easy to agree with most of what you say in this comment – but not so easy to agree with “some fucking trees have nothing to do with nothing.”

Trees are very susceptible to certain atmospheric and soil conditions. Specifically, the “chemtrails” constant spraying has nearly depleted the ozone layer, therefore allowing UVC rays to penetrate to the surface. These rays, particularly added to the aluminum already coating the trees, greatly weaken the trees’ ability to respirate. Plus, they work in tandem to kill soil microbes. This phenomenon is especially noticeable on the southern exposed side of trees.

Even where I live (in central Maryland), there are far more fallen trees than ever before. And Maryland is one of the most sheltered states in the US. We rarely get truly damaging weather – yet we have downed trees.

A downed tree is not “nothing.”

The Problem with propaganda is not that it’s there (since it’s easy to see through the propaganda), but that many people lack the guts to see through it, and therefore believe that propaganda equals reality. The idea that there is no alternative to reality than propaganda makes people stupid and (even more) scared to the truth.

Seeing the truth is easy once you compare situations. This is what scientists are supposed to do. The truth may not be absolute (especially not social ‘truths’), but relative, but relative to what? If all T Fords can have any colour as long as they’re black, there is no choice. And so it is with science and propaganda where the only truth is the truth that’s being created, like a black T Ford.

If life is a game, we are confronted (from the beginning of the game) with many doors that we can go through, yet we are supposed to go through the doors in which the Karl Rove’s of this world created their own reality. Most of us go through these Karl Rove doors, but some deviate at some point and chose their own doors. The latter have the advantage over the former that they can compare realities (ie that what is behind the door). A drawback is that once you deviate from the Karl Rove doors you can never go back. It’s like you are Truman Burbank, and see through the show, just like him, yet cannot escape the show.

Well, the good news is that escapism never works and that if you really want to make a change and let people see through things (or let them open different doors to continue with the analogy), you have to make them see. I am also not so scared about being a ‘disfavoured individual’ by the propaganda machine, since I do not believe that the propaganda machine cares about individuals. You may be disfavoured and (therefore) excommunicated from the Karl Rove reality, but it’s your choice how to deal with that excommunication.

It’s an uphill battle and a huge task (to make people see that there are more doors than the Karl Rove doors), that you may not be able to win. But it’s true and that at least is something as compared to the fake reality that those who live in propaganda continue to live in.

I think you’re wrong. The majority of people accept “propaganda” – or whatever is peddled as reality within their sandbox – as the actual reality. The number of devil’s advocates, constant dissenters, people who question whatever status quo is established is very low.

Take, for example, the non-virus crowd. They’ve more or less unconditionally accepted what’s proposed by the likes of Kaufman, Lanka, Cowan and others, relying on such research as the rather idiotic FOI requests that seek to proof that there is no virus because the “government has no record of a purified, isolated sample of it” (sic). While there are some rather serious questions about the viability of the virus theory and the germ theory in general, it’s an open issue, yet the non-virus babblers have embraced the no-virus narrative as reality and fanatically promote it.

Few people have a truly “scientific” mind in that they’re willing to continually re-examine stuff and their stance.

Tovarish Tom, don’t lecture me on Kaufman’s position. I know all about it and some.

In a nutshell, what they’re doing is a using a very specific way to put a dent in the concept of virology. They’re trying to demonstrate that the methodology employed by virologists is fallacious because it doesn’t conform to standards they establish.

They certainly have a point, but so do the virologists (if you actually care to examine their methodology and the inherent problems associated therewith).

Where is the truth? I don’t fucking know, you don’t fucking know, nobody fucking knows. Meanwhile, virologists are in the lab, Kaufman is yapping on the Internet, and Lanka is doing standup comedy (have you been to one if his lectures?).

But none of that matters in relation to the aforestated. What matters is that the normative dissenters have accepted the no-virus narrative as reality and are ferociously opposed to having it put into question, let alone questioning it yourself.

Propaganda? Have you consider the possibility that the whole no-virus narrative is a crock of shit designed to sow the seed of doubt among people, create yet another dichotomy for people to fight over as part of the divide-and-rule world of smoke and mirrors? Hardly.

To begin with, shove the allegation that something is “my job” back up your ass, motherfucker.

As to the “virus fraud”.

What do you mean by that, Tovarish Mark? The CV fraud, the virology fraud, some other fraud you can’t quite put your finger on but it must be fraud because whatever?

Do you have a vague idea as to what the term fraud means?

Where is your evidence of anything? Where is your pertinent evidence that CV was fraud? Where is your evidence that virology is fraud? Where is your any other evidence? You have shit. You have assumptions, allegations, suppositions. There is no conclusive answer.

Yet, you BELIEVE. You’re convinced that it’s FRAUD.

That’s what my remark is about. You’ve made up your mind about something, became a believer, and now everything and everybody who dares put a dent in your belief is a mortal enemy.

Being a dissenter, black sheep, devil’s advocate is not a one-time thing; it’s an ongoing process. Don’t you fucking know?

The evidence that Covid is a fraud has been clearly stated on this site. It’s merely a new name for old sickness that has never been linked to a single unique symptom or causative agent. A marketing scam.

If you are referring instead to SARSCOV2, the virus may or may not have been isolated but since it has never been shown to cause any unique illness or pathology, its existence (or not) scarcely matters. If real it would simply be another one of the nonillion viruses alleged to currently exist and which – at absolute worst – causes a “flulike illness” in some people.

The mere fact it’s a subject of debate shows the success of the reality-denying covid psyop

Technically speaking, fraud is a criminal action perpetrated with the intent to secure gain for the perpetrator.

In this regard, would you kindly specify who specifically is the perpetrator? The exact mechanism involved? You think that everybody who participated in the, say, COVID EVENT was a fraudster?

FFS, I don’t need a lecture about what COVID has been, about the flu, all the shit, I got it coming out of my ears.

That’s NOT what my remarks are about. My remarks are about the RIGIDITY OF THOUGHT. About adopting a stance – and it’s irrelevant what the stance is – putting the fucking blinders on, and refusing anything that might shed new light on whatever is at stake.

As to PS, kindly ask that asshole to refrain from remarks about voicing an opinion, which his nano bird brain obviously doesn’t understand, being “my job”.

I’ve watched a very interesting discussion featuring a historian/philosopher who in a nutshell says that the Atlantic civilization, meaning essentially the world controlled by the US, is collapsing. All the phenomena that accompanied the demise of previous civilizations are apparently there. One of them, he says, is the fact that the impetus or purpose for which the civilization came into being gets inverted and causes the civilization to go down the tubes. In the case of our civilization, that would be the values of Enlightenment.

Come to think about, education is a case in point of that phenomenon as well. The state at which it is today is just about completely perverted, inverted, contrary to the purpose for which our education systems were established.

I don’t think – which is also what this professor says – that the process is intentionally controlled. It’s the result of how things have got corrupted along the way. And that goes for other things too. Sure, there are plenty of motherfuckers intent on taking advantage of this or that. But the process is spontaneous.

Still, some people are perfectly happy with the world that is created for them, fake as it may be. Let’s call such a fake world ‘Orlando’ which is a place that I once visited and where I met a bartender who had never left Orlando and convinced me that he truly believed that Orlando is the greatest place on earth which he never wanted to leave.
– Who am I to say that he should?

But saying that I therefore should also live in Orlando for the rest of my life would be cruel. And this is the problem with globalization, ie that the whole world becomes like Orlando (Disney world), ie ‘a small world after all…’

It’s to be hoped that there are many like me, yet are not willing to say so since they lack guts. For this matter I find it pretty comforting that the world becomes more and more an unlivable place (like Orlando) and the remaining option becomes more and more to either perish or resist.

Perishing is already happening (https://www.euromomo.eu/graphs-and-maps) for which reason the resistance can only become larger and for which I don’t have to do anything but wait.

Speaking about statistics, here is an interesting analysis, rather objective, which is rarely the case nowadays.

https://www.unz.com/article/how-safe-are-the-covid-vaccines/

The quest for, say, a life of contentment, nirvana, is an endless one. The historical period that is now ending, the consumerist binge of the second half of the 20th century, has been fake too.

People were conditioned to perceive themselves as a kind of quasi-nobility, as being able to afford what resembled what had previously been reserved to the elites.

But as you say – one must remain an optimist. A while ago, I read – I think in relation to how to overcome a serious illness – that one must at all times, at every individual moment believe that things will not start getting better. Even if things are deteriorating, you must believe that from now on they’ll go the other way.

I used to be a devoted reader (and a great admirer) of Unz, but he has not been all that great on the scamdemic and related issues, even if some of his regular contributors have been. Early on, back in February of 2020, Unz got it into his head that ‘Covid-19’ was an American biological weapon that had been released into China in the fall of 2019, only to be reintroduced back into the US a few months later, and he will not let go of this bizarre story no matte what. So I gave up on Unz a few years ago.

The natives are getting restless against the hegemon:
– Australian PM said he doesn’t feel the need to choose between the US and China.
– Myanmar opened a second China “energy channel”.
– South Korea requested to take back the US wartime command.
– Japan officially supported the Belt and Road Initiative.
– Vietnam stated that the most important partner in the future is China.
– Singapore and China upgraded the free trade zone. Singapore had been a fierce critic of China.
– Thailand announced that it will push the China-Thailand high-speed rail economic link.
– Israel leased the military port at Haifa to China.
– The Shanghai-London Stock Connect has opened.
– US President is absent from 2 important Asia-Pacific summits.
– France proposed a European army to guard against “US, Russia, and China”.
– Sino-Indian border negotiations broke decades of deadlock.
– Philippines agreed to jointly develop the South China Sea with China.

When you put it like that….?
Ausgaolier is a five eyes member so they won’t be choosing between the US and China any time soon. If they were made to choose then it would be a failing empire thousands of miles away. Ausgaolier will cut itself off from the largest future economic block and because of this it will sink like the other five eyes members.

I think the most significant thing on your list is the absence of a US presidential bully from the last two major Earth changing summits. The US is being sidelined whilst the rest of the world move on.

Well, Biden wasn’t there because he doesn’t know his arse from his elbow and Trump wasn’t there because they didn’t have gold plated toilet seats in his hotel suite.

Almost feel sorry for the sycophantic Suiturds. Choosing between a disciplined, highly regulated, ambitious Empire on the rise, and an armed to their teeth, resource greedy, diminishing, warmongering chaotic, ex Empire.
Hope the Suiturds are losing lots of sleep.

Considering there was not and never has been a “Covid-19” novel coronavirus, that’s kind of like a no brainer, i.e., there could not have been a “difference in Covid-19 infection rates” because there was no Covid-19.

So basically, this particular oligarchy propaganda outlet is saying there was and is a Covid-19, just that maybe we don’t need the masks, only the never ending fake vaccines. Because remember, and don’t forget, Covid-19 is still out there, man.

OK but why do they tell the people now that the mask mandates were unnecessary?

“The infection rate remained unchanged”.

The silly twats in the NHS are STILL insisting they are worn, and they are STILL insisting on covid tests etc. This crap hasn’t gone anywhere. Info from someone who recently ended up in hospital for a night.

‘High risk businesses’?
Funny, no mention of the MIC, Big pHarmer, casinos, junk food, alcohol or tobacco businesses.
The REAL risks to the health and the well being of the general public from such businesses is a PROVEN fact.
It seems the PTB are only risk averse to their own ‘well being’.
Being in FULL CONTROL, of everything.

Many thanks for the free results of your research. I’m sure those who need it will be very grateful, and probably very thankful they took the trouble.

Many stood silent when Alex Jones was denied a life and a living. Alex and others were the thin end of the wedge. Debanking and cancelling will be rolled out for the masses when NWO digital credits become the currency.

James please fix your bookshelf before it collapses. Cheers.

We are just one major crisis from full implementation of CBDC world wide.
This is the hill to die on, IMHO.

With the exposure of all the state sponsored censorship with big tech., they are making sure we are on the path of violence.

We will all have to make a choice, risk death in the fight for Liberty, or live on your knees with government goo all over your face.

The Tree of Liberty is thirsty.

Freedom/Liberty is the hill to die on. CBDC, the Scamdemic, WWIII, food and water control, Great Reset/New World Order, etc. etc., are the reasons we’re fighting for that hill.

The phenomenon of “total banker control” or tyranny is what we described in Jul ’21.

But at that time, any reference to bankers was considered anti-schematic.

Years ago the phrase “It’s the economy, stupid!” became popularized to the extent where virtually everyone recognized the term.

That was then …

This is now [2023]: “It’s the central bank digital currency slavery system, stupid!”
