Guided by the meticulous work of Dr. David E. Martin, Plandemic II: Indoctornation, tracks a three decade-long money trail that leads directly to the key players behind the COVID 19 pandemic. Plandemic II connects the dots between all forms of media, the medical industry, politics and the financial industry to unmask the major conflicts of interests with the decision makers that are currently managing this crisis.

I watched both part 1 and 2 last night.
There wasn't much new in either video. I didn't feel either video stepped beyond what they could show as being factual vs questionable. They didn't reach for any conclusions that aren't clearly there.
What I think the videos demonstrate better than anything is the people in charge are at the 97th percentile and that implies the kind of slippage we are seeing. Anybody who operates above that level is rendered null and void. What Judy Mikovits and her lawyers claim happened to her is what happens. I can vouch for that because I've seen it happen to other people first hand.
After posting this, I decided to read The 97th Percentile's response to Plandemic 1. It's quite interesting. First, they have to cherry pick out of 26 minutes of video to find stuff to attack. But they didn't find much, really. Most of The 97th Percentile are technically and scientifically illiterate, even the ones who work in the technology field.
The most questionable thing they did find, and the thing I would disagree with most that Mikovits said, is the part about masks. So first I will quote that topic from a hit piece:
Does wearing masks make us more susceptible to the coronavirus?
No. The video says that masks “activate” the virus. Where’s the evidence for that? There isn’t any. (This, by the way, is a specific claim that Facebook cites in removing the video as misinformation. “Suggesting that wearing a mask can make you sick could lead to imminent harm, so we’re removing the video,” the company told the New York Times.)
First, as stated, it's pretty obvious to me that Mikovits' brain is now a bit muddled from the trauma she's been subjected to and her communication style and mannerisms are consistent with what I've seen from people who have been through such trauma.
In the early days of the pandemic, The 97th Percentile were the ones who were saying reusing masks could spread the virus and made a big deal out of that, even going so far as to talk about autoclaving masks for several hours so they could be reused by front line personnel during the shortage. This is not precisely the same thing as saying wearing masks will "activate" the virus, but it's close. If that's the idea she had in mind, "activate" is not the right word, but it's close enough to be as good as the kind of work Fauci does, and she said she worked for him.
Also, in the early days of the pandemic, The 97th Percentile was saying that wearing professional masks like half respirators could be ineffective because they must be properly fitted to be effective. I wore half respirators for decades while doing construction work and that kind of statement reeks of the kind of thing you would hear from people who have never had any experience wearing a mask. It's not difficult to tell whether a half respirator is properly fitted. The conclusion was that wearing a mask that was not properly fitted could be worse than wearing no mask at all. In my opinion, that's wrong, but it's not a whole lot different than what Mikovits said.
Once Fauci and the CDC belatedly pivoted to correctly (in my opinion) saying masks would be beneficial in controlling the spread of the virus, there was never much discussion about which types of masks would be beneficial and which types would not. If a mask is only filtering 10 or 20 percent of the target dust or mist, then it could be doing more harm than good. I'm no expert, but that's my opinion based on experience in wearing masks. Clearly, the so-called experts were not specific as to what types of masks would be beneficial and what types would not. At that point, The 97th Percentile just advocated that people wear masks and were not specific about what to do. For example, they could have issued guidelines saying that N95 or greater masks are sufficient and, for those who find that they are unavailable, an equivalent mask could be made at home from a high efficiency furnace or air conditioning filter rated to remove the equivalent of N95 or greater. But there was no such guidance on what alternatives to rated masks might work that I am aware of.
