THOSE (CHINESE) DNA ANCESTRY KITS

For many years I've been warning about the possibility that those "home DNA testing kits" that allow you to determine your genetic "ancestry" might not be merely the latest "technological fun," and that my suspicion was (and is) that many of these companies are fronts for governments. One possibility that I've entertained is that "they" are collecting individual human DNA samples because "they" are looking for something, or perhaps, "someone" in the human population that may not be entirely homo sapiens sapiens.

Well, some partial confirmation appears to be had with this article shared by W.G.:

China is stealing your DNA with home ancestry kits

Here's the core of the article's allegations:

At-home DNA testing kits have become all the rage as people seek to identify their ancestry. The only problem is that many of these companies are Chinese fronts that collect people’s genetic blueprints and use them for unknown purposes.

During a recent hearing, Dr. Steven Quay explained how the process typically works. What people receive in the mail and use to swab their DNA is then sent off to companies that in many cases are based in China.

“So if you go on the internet and want to do a DNA test for almost anything on the internet as a consumer – and you don’t even need a doctor to sign – and you do a scrape, the specimen will very often go to a laboratory here,” Dr. Quay stated.

“But then it gets shipped to BGI, which bought more Illumina sequencing machines than any other place in the world.”

Illumina sequencing machines, by the way, are used to process microarrays. These are what supposedly determine a person’s lineage going back to the early days of the family tree. (Boldface emphasis added)

There you have it: many of these companies use Chinese laboratories to process the results. But the question is, what are they using the data for? "Unknown purposes" could cover a multitude of nefarious activities. But given the recent revelations of "gain-of-function" research in connection to covid and Dr. Fausti, one possible use immediately presents itself, namely, the creation of genetically-specific and targeted bioweapons and it would be the height of irrationality, given that regime's dubious track record, to assume anything else.

I suspect, however, that the use of this database is not restricted to bioweapons. As indicated above, I suspect that they may be "looking" for something, a genetic marker that may tend to corroborate (or disprove) genetic manipulations of the human population in the past or present, perhaps even a "hybridization" such that someone may look homo sapiens sapiens but be of a different genetic makeup.

But in that regard, there is also another possibility that must be entertained while we're indulging in our daily dose of high octane speculation; since the advent of the covid planscamdemic and the mRNA quackcines, there's another possibility that presents itself. Lately I've been entertaining the notion that the planscamdemic needs a "control group" to compare results, but that this group cannot know that it is a control group. The control group in this instance are those refusing the mRNA injections. In this instance, the Chinese (and any other government masquerading behind the DNA ancestry companies) might be looking for genetic markers not only of infection, but of vaccination. Granted, this speculation presents massive problems of monitoring, but nonetheless would be a valuable database to have.

And the bottom line is, if "they" are willing to create a planscamdemic in order to "innoculate" as much of the global population as "they" can, they're willing to do almost anything, including monitoring both sets of the human - and possibly not-so-human - population.  Genetics, after all, plays a role not only in "co-morbidities" but also it would seem in reactions to the quackcines.

And that raises yet another disturbing high octane possibility: that the whole thing may have been designed to flush out a certain segment of the population...

See you on the flip side...

    Long suspected kits are used to create targeted bio weapons for specific types. It’s a continuation of the 4th Reich. Editor suggests chemists are looking for a unique blood types. While that may be true, that along with other cataloging is no doubt applied. But to me, not the main objective. As we look at current death tolls and areas hit hard, it’s evident that minority ethnic are groups are suffering higher numbers when compared globally. I fear tailored bio weapons will be made available to target any ancestral group where concentrations exist and to the highest bidder. Brave new world.

    Let’s go back to something Bob Dean told us was going on in the 1960’s at the Pentagram!! There were kiosks in place so that each morning the employees had to walk through them to make sure they were human beings….that was a long time ago!!! Who knows what is going on NOW???

    Maybe some A.I. has already become sentient & is controlling Humanity??? CYRUS A. PARSA at The A.I. Organization.com is THE expert along these lines!!

    Robert David Steele has posted some videos on The Federation of Planets(Galactic Fed.) which are quite interesting!! Go to BigBatUSA …..they were posted a few days ago!!

    BILLY CARSON has a pretty good grip on things about which, we like to speculate!! His book, “The Compendium of The Emerald Tablets” is proving to be most interesting. It seems many of our Earthly Religions were started by Someone, like an ‘angel’, coming down from above…..so why not TOTH?!!

    The “Someone/Something they may be looking for is almost certainly a distributed consciousness and is probably neither entirely here nor there. When you lose a limb, you can feel it and through it as if it were still there, even though that limb has died and gone into the beyond. Some “people” have become so dissociated that they are largely cut off from themselves and like the phantom limb that serves as a sort of lightning rod into Heaven or, at all events, the realm beyond the material continuation or delineations of the flesh, they can feel and sense via that spectral nervous system conduit into the spectral. Such lightning rods, it should be noted, can channel the painful closed negative reinforcement circuit-style currents akin to the wrathful thunder bolts of a vengeful deity or the divine electroshock therapy of the Heavens themselves–or a compelling admixture of the two. One of the ways that you can detect them is, if you are inexplicably drawn to their eerie brilliance but then recoil before touching them–not from repugnance, as such, but as though shocked by the kick galvanic when their connection with the divine discharges into your palm like a bug light summoning and electrifying an insect with those empyrean negative reinforcement therapeutics–the equivalent, perhaps, of having an orgasm and being struck by lightning at the same time…. You will also know them from their lightly negative aspect, for just as positive ions produce Depressoidal tendencies while negative ions produce sensations of mild euphoria in most hominid demographics, insanely cheerful bubble dwelling cretins parlaying the faux ignorance-as-bliss sensibilities and distorted funhouse reflections of their warped perspective to all and sundry, produce sensations and reactions of futility and suicidal despond in their victims, while those who are lightly negative, having transmuted that leaden eyed despond of stark realities into a harmless inoculating serum of “dead fear” light humor, irony, wit or other uplifting levitational forms, procure feelings of well being among those proximate. These others, can also be sussed from among the background, Creature Cantina of the “Human” spectrum, both by their innate cognitive dissonance effects on both human beings and certain types of machinery. The bipolar, electromagnetic warfare field they generate tends to frag sensitive equipment–whether humane or inhumane–and reduce computer screens to a smelted, pixelated slag. Such as they, will always be buying new computers and devices under a variety of excuses.
    The best available test, of course, is the streetlamp test. When these creatures walk at night, the streetlamps will go out one by one as they approach and then come back on once they are sufficiently past. This is not a result of some cloud of stygian occlusion, some enveloping magisterial Darkness inherent in the subject, or a shrinking of the light from them, nor due to the aforementioned bipolar electromagnetic warfare field, but rather to the extraordinary brightness, nae–Brilliance of the individuals in question. The interplay of light and darkness–like the alchemies of the interpersonal ion effect which makes Light of the Dark through dry or gallows humour–manifests invisibly to the casual observer but as Black Light to those with the proper type of eyes and the will and means to see–as well as to the sensor, it turns out, in your average sodium vapor streetlamp, which detects this brilliance, deduces that it is now daytime, and shuts itself off. The Black Light, or light of darkness is also the crime scene light of the new ozone reduced, ultraviolet (Black) Sun, by which the deeds of the wicked are, seared from the realm of the invisible, caught in the stark, high beamed smile of the cheerfully morose, brilliant, black lit, bipolar ambience of the fringe dwelling Others…. In more enlightened days, they were gainfully employed as Kings Fools, speaking in riddles of sublimated, layered meaning to relieve the tedium of the Monarch and to render palatable to closed courtly minds, necessary food for thought—sort of the way an adult attempts to make a fun game of feeding predigested and machine excreted lima beans to a truculent and distrusting, incredulous child. Now, of course, our kings are fools with umbilicals of drool connecting face to floor. No savant silver lining to see here folks! Anyway, start watching those streetlamps, patting people on the back while wearing rubber gloves, looking for attractive bug light auras, pheromonal clouds of negative ions, and noting who is present when sensitive machines and people go offline, become spastic, begin jittering or walking in circles or babbling glossolalia…. If street people unfailingly vector in on, and approach you and try to show you little pieces of paper scribblings, if retards instantly surge away from their handlers and rush at you gobbling and clicking with joy like echo-locating Dolphins sussing and stunning a tasty bass with their sonar, or men—usually—with strange chimpanzee smiles and fine clothes shake your hand funny and then go through a subtle tai-chi of communicable, semaphoring hand gestures while incorporating seemingly random words and phrases into their efforts at discourse, then you may be what the lobotomites are looking for…. Then again, you may not. As I said, it’s a Creature Cantina out there. “Keep a watchful eye.” Best, Chris

    DNA COLLECTION WITH THE PURPOSES OF CREATING BIO WEAPONS TARGETING WESTERN GENES…..



  6. Kevin Ryan on July 9, 2021 at 10:32 pm

    We live in a surveillance capitalist society. We are targets of data rape 24/7. Data from our social media, online purchases, credit cards, store “memberships”, and online searches is collected and culled for meaning to not only target us with ads but to manipulate our behavior to buy goods, services, and politicians others want to sell us. IoT steals more data about us. Health records are online. Build a database and the hackers will come. DNA collection? Why not. Companies can already tell a lot about our health condition, susceptibilities, and weaknesses through what we provide voluntarily on social media and what they seize and harvest using our phones and their apps and search engines. Also, we know some diseases and tendencies run in families – cancer, diabetes, alcoholism. An insurance company can look at our habits and tell much about what our future is likely to hold in terms of disease, risky behavior, accidental injury and death, work and career potential. There is no doubt that an entity having the data already available plus our DNA will find more links between our genetics, behavior, and health, enabling it to predict future behavior, identify weaknesses, and target us in ways to further manipulate our behavior with disinformation, and target our bodies with disease agents, 5G, microwave/Havana syndrome attacks, toxins, aerosols, new vaccines, you name it. China doesn’t want democracy. China is all about how to control populations. They have a handle on theirs and probably already are using DNA to identify likely troublemakers inside China. Their plan is to become the preeminent world power. To do that, they will need to control Americans. It may be by manipulating our minds. But we are an unruly bunch with lots of guns. They may want to plant within us a bug or virus they can activate like a killswitch to enforce compliance. Win the war against America without firing a shot. Everything is now weaponized. Why not our DNA? What if they found a way to activate our lysosomes all at once, cause runaway heart rate, or suppress our breathing while we slept? Weaponize our bodies using our own DNA so we comply or die? Whatever China is up to with its DNA collection program, we are their greatest threat and it is unlikely China is doing this to sell us more Nike shoes, polo shirts, coffee makers, or exercise equipment.



    • Terminal Tom on July 10, 2021 at 5:37 am

      Agree 100% on the surveillance society (am reading Zoboff on that right now).
      I have said all along that an important side effect of the pwndemic® is that it has conditioned EVERYBODY to giving up a nasal or throat swab at the drop of a hat… exactly what Big Brother has wanted since DNA sequencing was developed.
      the Technocracy requires absolute control over every aspect of our lives down to the finest detail.
      This is what the Internet of Things is all about, and it’s also what drives DNA testing and recording.



  7. marcos toledo on July 9, 2021 at 9:14 pm

    The problem with Mike Adams is can he make the separation between the CCP and the Chinese pwople. Before this was the RCP and the Russian people does he suffer from Sinophobia and Russiaphobia? As for the ancestry kits if my memory serves me Ancestry.com goes back at least to the 80s of the last century if not the 70s there were advertisements for these kits on tv. As for this industry falling into the hands of Chinese companies who sold it to them in the first place. The Chinese seem to be the latest front or patsy behind which the real puppet masters hide. As to what they may be looking for that might include relic humans that might not be extinct but still living as well as alien hybrids.

  9. Richard on July 9, 2021 at 6:13 pm

    Faustian bonanza, to be sure, where data base hacking has purportedly occurred a few years ago, as in cancer research data bases. Those speculated Party DNA testing firms probably have names and numbers as well as histories (even if short ones) as do the earlier ancestry test firms ramping up their data bases and accounts. They’re still on the proverbial RADAR. . . So are newly patented, Party made remedies, and smiling faces likely to appear as the new found Party saviors of rescuing the world from their very accessible virus they provided through another form of jet stream.

    There still hasn’t been an adequate settlement from that blood testing outfit of Theranos and company or much talk about it, either, since 2019 flew into bat history of 2020 and beyond. In one’s opinion, this nefarious stuff (you covered in the Nefarium once or twice already) is quite blatant and out in the open as is that published virus code demonstrating those suspect cleavage sites, so much so that surveillance is as sloppy as billboard advertisements than the once clandestine operation of hegemony that was a pride and boast without saying. Sorry Party fella’s, that Tiger left the continent a long time ago on metal wings.

    It’s as if it is flushing out contagion of several sources that would be associated with “Un-Restricted Warfare,” and those less-than-kinetic warfare tactics of Strategic Psychological Operations, Overt and Covert Media Manipulations, and Exploitation of National and International Legal Systems. Like what is playing out presently and most haphazardly. AI with multiple PROMIS’, a PRIZM, hacked data research bases (with the support of Tyrannosaurus tech apps) and super blade centers newly located and transferred, met with difficulty with fallout likely to drop. One would have to be brain-dead of the walking dead not to notice you-know-who of the Party losing face of a caricatured excellency. But not to despair, tune into some “Dead Daisies,” and Rock on. Quite a spell breaker actually with a charge of AC/DC, “Shot in the Dark.”

    Still no thumbs up with shadow site interference. No checks for notifications, either.

        If it were not so evident that infiltration is a key concern in the lower 48, the other two, the island territories, and offshore charges, one might be wondering what was caught on camera. One is not very photogenic so looks would not be causality for eyes on a target. Given that there are many things taking place that one might have once been assigned as an augmentee, . . . . . well, . . . . . sure hope those folks know to look all five ways so as not to become fast moving bus fodder at a misplaced corner stop. The electronics is a matter way beyond this commenter on the other side of the screen. Those folks read into programs already know something of the need to stay vigilant and deter getting-disappeared by foreign and domestic operatives. Pity the poor Jackals. Probably one of the reasons why “Deadman triggers” are making a gallant comeback toward posterity. Profits in finance and in insurances are not as reliable as they once were counted on.

        One needs to consider that you are still hunting loose Tigers since herding cats, big and small, does not work very well, if at all. Each continent has their special kitty distinguishable from the others.

        One has two hypotheses on why the screen appears as it does and why electronics act funny. Someone has dropped a few balls and a Boulder.

  11. Chris on July 9, 2021 at 12:40 pm

    Joseph,
    I like that. Control group. When prying consensus clusters reps who would never dream of assigning or assaying a gender condition to anything, inevitably enquire as to my “prick” status, I am usually tempted to answer that, no, I have not had Bill Gates’ prick inserted and thus, his genetic material squirted into my body, nor been altered by or into one of those pricks, either by proximity to or genetic manipulation by. I manage to refrain, of course, and usually just lock eyes with them and say: “Nothing that I could say to you is likely to alter your…apprehension of reality.” The ambiguity of “apprehension” stuns the lingering functional synapses of the mildly perspicacious like a phantom limb bitch-slap and frightens the other witless dupes who can only key off the spectral fear of others…. But now that martial law has been temporarily abated, I am compelled to visit with “The Others” more regularly. Now you have given me something that can be uttered pleasantly, in the utterly vicious polite company of the willful lobotomites–without nitpicking. “I’m part of the Control Group,” I will say calmly while staring apparently abstractedly at where the pineal gland would be on a normal person….

    I usually frame the blog of the day from the title; which today
    sets the entrance, onto the globalized Chinese stage: pure Han.
    The black market for a certified strong Han DAN root lineage
    to a towering Himalayan tree will be paved in Priceless Jade.
    As to why?
    Simple.
    Everything under the Sun is becoming: politicized.
    The alleged reason; an inside secret.
    The public will want to show-off their heritage[@ black market price$].
    To today’s blog.

    Government[s] would front those DNA companies[because the government[s] will want DNA root charts, for political and/or blackmail possibilities].
    I imagine that Chinese secret societies would have an interest in “other”.

    Anyone who has seen Kevin Costner in, “No Way Out”, can certainly identify with an “other”; who is not at the top of the power pyramid’s food chain.
    The sequencing company machines could have a chip that can copy the DNA and be accessed w/the appropriate key. In other words, the DNA tree has many possible unauthorized access branches leading to God knows where.

    Excellent prognosis: use the DNA signatures, as targets for biological warfare and/or assassinations; use a confirmation of ancient genetic engineering[of various possible methods].

    And now the covid1984 shoe drops!
    The DNA kits may be a tell-tale signpost of resistance.

    And add that, to the many ops w/in ops of the covid1984 scamdemic;
    the search for “others” as a primary objective, and you have another perplexing question: What do “they” know about this[these] other[s]?

    For it would seem,
    that “they” have evidence that they regard as unquestionable.

    Would that be an “other” of another stripe, w/inside info?
    In this case; would the inside info, be of an off-world nature/info?

  14. KSW on July 9, 2021 at 10:49 am

    So many possibilities! Here’s a weird idea for you … I was listening to a live Youtube Q&A yesterday afternoon with Gigi Young. She was discussing her psychic understanding of the Grey aliens being interdimensional beings who are human, but on a different (future) timeline than us. The Greys were the humans (now or near future) who took the transhumanist path and they now realize what a mistake that was and they are having a myriad of problems and can’t develop any further. She said they can’t experience emotions any longer and many other issues. Evidently, they have been trying to gather human DNA so they can regenerate themselves.

    I have absolutely no idea if there are aliens here or not — I mean, I know there are probably aliens somewhere and maybe here too, but I’ve not seen one that I know of. I’m not in a mood today to entertain bio-warfare and mass devastation, so I’m taking the “Happy Friday” positive approach and will just suggest perhaps the world governments are trying to help “re-humanize” the Greys. Uh, yeah … I’m pretty certain that must be what they’re up to. So, Happy Friday everyone!



    • Foglamp on July 9, 2021 at 10:37 pm

    Evidence of genetic tinkering in the past could be used as justification for tinkering now. Or perhaps the agency that did it before is doing it again.



  16. ragiza on July 9, 2021 at 9:00 am

    I’ve read things suggesting that the US has been gathering genetic information on Russians in order to develop bio-weapons aimed at them. Other countries can be assumed to be doing the same thing. The US, being an immigrant country might have a more diverse genetic makeup than other countries, making aimed bio-weapons somewhat more difficult to achieve. It seems to me bio-warfare is the coming thing, aimed at humans, livestock, crops.



    • OrigensChild on July 9, 2021 at 9:26 am

      Ragza, what are the odds that every medical biopsy performed by a member of the medical profession is required to sequence and archive DNA sequenced information for future study in a database somewhere? The US would be a perfect place to begin a full spectrum genetic sequencing project because of its ethnic diversity. Rather than being a hinderance it would be the natural starting place. Its value would diminish over time, though, for reasons you imply. But, Ragza, for the past 15 years I have suspected that pathologists are required to keep a catalog of genetic data for research–and that various defense contractors have access to the database for its weaponization potential. Every measure in health, HIPAA and ACA, have deep and hidden agendas that serve these industries best interests. Otherwise, why would the emphasis be on the electronic sharing of very detailed personal medical information?



      • ragiza on July 9, 2021 at 11:23 am

  17. Jen on July 9, 2021 at 8:24 am

    I have mentioned before elsewhere on this site that the, to me, interesting stat that the covids have a lower incidence and infection in those with a Rhesus Negative blood type. What can this mean??



    • OrigensChild on July 9, 2021 at 9:20 am

      Jen, this may be one of the fundamental questions associated with this research. If they compiling DNA databases of individuals before infection and after infection they are looking at a variety of datasets with both treatment and weaponization potential. After all, the two are the siamese twins of genetic research. If this statistic was published you have confirmation of deep interest. If these people are interested in ancestry at all, it is for those people who consider bloodlines to really matter: and those obsessed the most may well have one particular genetic signature. Rhesus Negative blood type might well be part of it. We saw this type of obsession in the Underworld movie series as it related to the Corvinus family strain. Art imitating life again? You tell me….



      • Jen on July 13, 2021 at 5:31 am

        OG, the article concerning this is from https://www.nature.com/articles/s41467-020-19623-x where it makes clear that infection and notably death are much lower in Rh-. Certainly the explicit data-mining going on at the moment points to unusual interest in our blood and therefore DNA is above and beyond dealing with a simple respiratory infection outbreak.



  18. FiatLux on July 9, 2021 at 7:58 am

    It seems to me all the speculations brought up in this blog post are eminently possible. The biowarfare angle should probably be taken for granted; all major governments (and maybe some nonstate actors) are going to be interested in researching biowarfare, for purposes of both waging it and defending from it.

    An additional high-octane possibility that occurred to me: If you were going to start tinkering with humanity’s genetics, via a quackcine or however else, it might be handy to have a preexisting database of human DNA that contained as broad and representative a sample as possible. That database itself could be used as a control group. In other words, you’d do a mass sampling of DNA before the tinkering (most likely already done before and/or during 2020); then mess with humans’ DNA; then do more mass sampling of DNA; finally, compare the mass samplings from before and after, and see what has changed.

        “For the slaveholding states in the Deep South, Native protected fugitive slaves posed vast troubles. South Carolina assigned slave patrols to watch roads and countryside. In 1728, South Carolina acting governor Arthur Middleton wrote: “The Spanish are receiving and harboring all our runaway negroes, they found out a new way of sending our slaves against us, to rob and plunder us–they are continually fitting out parties of Indians from St. Augustine to murder our white people, to rob our plantations and carry off our slaves….” Middleton, a rice planter who held 107 slaves at the time of his death in 1737, had been personally affected by the Spanish policy of encouraging runaways. For the Spanish, their encouragement was just one more ploy to be used against their British enemies.”

          Excellent drop, Laura!!!

        Though I upvoted as an agreement it is only a partial one. Honestly, Laura, I think these are the incidental benefits of DNA harvesting–not the purpose for them. There is no question that some of this research can assist us with understanding the past–if you can actually trust the researchers doing the work. (A wise person always approaches this kind of information with caution. Have not the anthropologists of the past not taught us anything about this process? One can build an argument from minimal data that sounds plausible and possible, but it is only a guess.) This incidental work is part of their “marketing effort”. The money is not in the incidentals–but the data itself. If we think these people are interested in our ancestry, we are wrong. They are looking for something specific–and they can sell the database for a variety of purposes. I, for one, will not give them my DNA and pay them to sequence it. With respect to DNA we really should teach Gollum a lesson on how to defend that which is genuinely ours.

          Love the discussion. I am guessing that not everyone has had the moral issue of providing extensive means of support to new unknown family members…

      Dana, I agree completely with you on this. At first glance having one’s DNA sequenced to determine ancestry and linage seems to be a good idea–until one realizes that there is only so much DNA information available from one’s ancestors whereas records offer the best solution. The only cost entailed usually is the personal cost of the search. When I considered the possibilities of sample ownership for corporations and the cost for the analysis, it dawned on me that we are selling our biological signature to corporations and paying them a fee to sequence it. Our genetic signature is the most valuable piece of information we own–and because of its uniqueness it can be used for a variety of identifiers while opening a Pandora’s box of multiple miseries. It should be guarded as a treasure and used only when there is medical need to do so. Corporations will say they need the DNA to research new medical treatments–but they will say anything, collect their fees to sequence the sample and sell their information to anyone for a price! Marketing programs take bad news and repackage it to make it sound good–or to disguise it under a promised benefit that seldom arrives. Then I asked myself, how many promises have corporations given me after nearly 50 years of advertising that were never delivered? Just like anything of value there is always someone willing to use a con to get what they want–and this is the grandest con job of all! In fact, this whole question does cause me to ponder the following question: is there a statistical trend suggesting a relationship among people who will choose to be vaccinated AND who will sell their DNA to corporations for sequencing? Because if there is, these corporations KNOW it and want mandatory vaccination regimes to get the widest genetic database.
