==Discovery==
==Content==
The content of the website centers around a drug called [[Parepin]]. The unnamed author of the website (who may be [[John Markakis]] as evidenced on [[The Exterminal]] under Markakis,J Inmate-interview) describes a future world in which Parepin has been introduced into municipal water supplies throughout the United States, under the direction of the US government. The purported reason for this put forward in the media as excerpted on the website is that Parepin is immune system booster that will protect Americans from biological warfare; apparently in response to biological terror attacks which have occurred on the west coast. However, the website author's main thesis is that Parepin has no immune system boosting effects, and is in fact a psychoactive drug being used by the government to sedate the population and make them complacent.
The site has several sections, describing what Parepin is, listing several undesirable side effects, and suggesting that people try to avoid Parepin. Also prominently featured is a mention of the phenomenon known as [[The Presence]], which the author suggests is a Parepin-induced hallucination.
