Speaker 1

Y'all know who El Chappo is. He's uh seeing a lot of crime cartel. I'm kind of smiling when I say this because, like you know, Chappo's final den Maize was a little comical. He's nothing to laugh about, you know. He's I mean, is the one of the most notorious like Escobar level Mexican crime cartel bosses. I mean just he wiled the sene Lot cartel. Look, you know, floating bodies ashore and dangling from street signs like they was.

They was wild. Uh, And you shouldn't know because like Narcos Season three is in a lot of ways, it's about Chapo. Um if you watch that type of stuff. Anyway, it's kind of funny because like one of the things Choppo is known for he kept escaping from prison. He you know, we're just like figured out tunnels and you know a lot of the tunnels through you know, the border down south like that was Choppo. And then they

did that, you know what I'm saying. Um, But then he asked for this like interview with this actress and Sean Penn just this weird thing that happened at the end. I was like, okay, but Anyway, Choppo finally got his come upings towards the end. But the thing about Choppo is that he just kept getting away with He just kept he kept escaping from prison like it was just you know, his drug game crazy. He just kept escaping. And it's it's not funny because of the thousands of

lives that were ended because of him at all. That is, it's awful, just the brutality of it all. But that man just kept kept getting away. He just kept just they lock about he'd be free, like you just can't couldn't. They couldn't hold him in a sale. Oh man, add might like I just always have money. Ready, let's talk about the Sackler family farmer produce hood politics right now? Who politics, y'all? Hood politics? Yo? This show called Choppo Wetto.

I don't know why it today. It was so funny to beat what I do because wetto is uh, you know, it's slang for like white boys, So like wet o wet that's like you know, white boy, white girl, and the animalogy of that we just don't have time for. But it's slang like sometimes drive what's double about? Like like cholo kind of Mexican slang and even just Spanish in general, like a lot of the same words can

scale in intensity and vulgarity, pending on the context. Because my wife's family they from southern Mexico, from Alca Poco, so they are mostly because of the transatlantic slave trade. They're mostly pretty dark skinned down there. My wife, however, of the dark skinned are on. She's one of the lighter ones in her family. Now, she ain't light at all, especially when she get to America. Like, no, that's a brown girl, you know what I'm saying. But her granddaddy

black as hell, like he's a black man. So they call her wetto like in her family, you know, saying like or not wet, a wetter they called her wetter like uh when she go when we went down to getto in Acapolca, they were like what I what I They were calling her wetter because like to them, she fair skinned, you know what I'm saying. It's like anyway, so they don't mean it as a disk, but sometimes

they do. You feel me, Sometimes we do, or sometimes it's like I don't know, it's just anyway, I'm off topic. I'm talking about this crime cartel family like them at drug dealers. I listen, this is you talking white version of Escobard. The colleague Cart said, l niggad a drug dealers. There's another way where they pushers. These are cara fuls like they're it's drugs. I'm talking about the Sackler family.

It's just the difference is these drugs was legal and they just having to get away with it until now. But then they still kind of got away with it, which is why I'm calling these folks chop old weddow. Now let's get to it. So I'm talking about the opo yoid epidemic in recent court cases. I'm gonna tell you some recent court cases, and I don't want to back up talk to you about the Sacler family itself talking about the war on drugs, talk about kind of hood.

Can tell you how we knew this was gonna play out? You know what I'm saying, How if white supremacy wasn't such a thing, then maybe we could have guided each other through navigating this moment. Because we didn't win through this war on drugs. We know, we know, we know what happened when an institution pushes a product onto our community convinces us this the only way out and then punishes us for actually using the product you sold us. I mean this, y'all call it the opioid epidemic. We

called it the crack attack. The only difference is we ended up in jail for forty years. Yeah, I mean systemic, y'all. Anyway, I'm gonna walk y'all through. I'm talking about the sketch, what the difference between schedule one schedule to narcotic and what this now means for the future of jail, justice and sentencing. So this is gonna be a pretty dense one.

But the sacklers, I'm a quote from an NPR article. Oh, there's also a show Hulu show called Dope Sick that kind of talks a little bit more about the opioid epidemic, which is just essentially white people crack attack like that. I don't know as sucks, but I mean as it's hard to not look from the inner cities and look at what happened to y'all and be like, oh, nay, we know how this play out, your hope saying Anyway, although there are a lot of like you know, um,

these are broad strokes. There's a lot of things that aren't one to one ratios that are are not fair for me to say it's that simple because it's not. And I mean, come on, now, how we do this show? It's only thirty minutes long, like we you know what I'm saying, like, there's only so much nuance if you feel me I can give you. And I'm not saying that to give myself off the hook. I don't know why I'm giving this long explanation. The point is is

a very complicated concept. It's kind of like the what we did, the like the U Outside episode with Israel and Palestine, and then like the Fear of the clap Back one about the Armenian genocide. Uh. These are nuanced, complicated concepts that in a lot of ways I'm not doing them justice. But uh, I still think if you understand the hood, you understand politics. So here we go.

The Sacklers made billions from oxycotton, Fenton all and all these different opioids that we're in, these painkillers that has decimated Middle America. You know now, And when I say Middle America, okay, that's okay. Let me there's another disclaimer. It's other people besides white people. That live in Middle America. I mean, Kansas City is in Middle America. Just it's it's a gang of black people with Ganga City it's gang of Latinos. Again. Anyway, that's I'm off point. But Oxycotton,

as we know like that, then that's stuff. Stuff killed y'all, White Fox Boy. It ran through y'all's hood like crack

ran through ours. Why because it's freakishly addictive, unbelievably addictive, and it's hard I'd be hard pressed to say that there is not of all the listeners of his show that like there's a high percentage of y'all that either struggle with it or have lost somebody or got some damn homies over over this stuff, or people in jail over addictions, which I'm getting ahead of myself because I'm gonna talking about, like when why is it a crime to be addicted? You know that's that's Isn't that a

health issue? Not criminals? Size point? So anyway, Uh, the way that crime and punishment is supposed to work is if I mean, you lie to the public about a product, so the product knowing full well it was gonna cause the type of damage as he caused you're pushing something. You know it's deadly. You the p sure, so you know the cornerboy up to the connect, up to the pusher, up to the supply. Y'all are supposed to go to jail. Who posted get the most time? Is the supply the pusher?

You need to pay for this, like you didn't cause ear reversible damage in multiple millions of famioun billions, but multiple families, just you're criminally liable to which the sacklers were like, yeah, but we broke though, so they was like, look, I ain't got it. Yeah, these billionaires was like, yeah, I ain't got it. So uh, maybe if you could sue the company Perdue Pharma, which they owned, but us

personally we bankrupt. We ain't got it. You have a loan superce somebody owe your money and they're like, yo, I ain't got it, but I put something on it. Like that's that's real. Oh it's cool. It's like look man, let me Yeah, I put something on it. Hey, listen to help me. You know, there's some people you should never borrow money from, or you should never loan money too, because you ain't gonna get your money. You ain't gonna get it back. You just just know it's a gift.

They ain't gonna have it. And then other people you know, got it, they're just not giving it to you. Ah, man, I got you. I'm gonna get you next week. I'm gonna get you next week. Some nice shoes you got there, big, I've seen you at the club blowing some honey. You know what I'm saying. He blew a bottle of heney. He was in v I P talking about you ain't got the money you owe me. Though, So in a civil suit they declared bankruptcy and now they have one

immunity from opioid lawsuits. M niggas is a meal. They don't have to pay the company d but they don't. And then it gets even crazier because not only did the pusher, but now also the corner boys. And in this situation, the corner boys ain't a boy. It's CVS, Walgreens and Walmart they held liable. That's crazy. This is like this would mean like, okay, something else going on

here now in the streets. We would know that, Like you know, if you get caught with intent to sell, unless you give up your connect, you know, you complete for for for a you know, a lower sentence if you give up the connect. But you know if you give a connect dyeing right, you know what I'm saying like that you can give up the connect. You feel me, you just have somebody like you know what I'm saying.

You got popped. You keep your mouth shut because when you get back, when you get back out on the streets, you want to be able to like put on again. You wanna be able to get back up. You know you down, use up, you down now you wanna be able to get back up when you get back out, right I'm saying right like like you know this al right, but anyway you get popped like you you know what I'm saying, like, you gotta like you know, you just do your time and just hope everything work out right.

But you're going to jail in this situation. I didn't think you could put I didn't think the story. I didn't think that the cornerboy CVS. Walgreens would be would have to like pony up. They got a pony up, and they their definition was like fam or not. Their definition Their defense was like fam, we're not, We're not. The doctors were just the store. You tell us what it's our job to figure out if this we just I'm just the store, fam you feisota store. We ain't

that we y'all prescribed it. Somebody walk in with a prescription. It's just our job to give. You give the person what you told us to get him. We're proposed to notice is bad. They said, you shows you're making money off all this and when money and hands is exchanged, big on me, Like obviously, look so somebody gotta pay. And what you're seeing right here, somebody used to say all the time, Hey, listen, bosses don't go to jail.

Bosses figured it out. Bosses are they go out in the blaze of glory, big homie these look just look what old wet dot got active dog. They was like, oh, we ain't got it, but you can shoot. You can see the business though business got this much? Why would you do that? Because you can't go back because the name burnt, You can't go back to being produced farmer and you get after something like this, So go ahead and burn the name. You don't say were good, but

gonna burn the name? It don't that don't make sense to you? That makes perfect sense to be That's what that's what they did. Okay, now let me I'm jumping all over the place because this is so thick. So the Sackler family is the founders of the company Perdue Farmer. Who are the people responsible for dropping these opioids on our streets? But let's go back. We got to go back a lot of ways. Let's go back. First of all, two the concept of pain. Let's take a break. All right, Yo,

we're back, man. I hope y'all. Uh shout out Headlights, matt Our, salt Ski. I think that was close enough. Uh Yo, these tracks are brand new man. He I mean he do them every week. I want to shout to hem, y'all, y'all hearing all these like scoring he didn't put out a record. He he didn't put out his like his playlist. We're gonna try to get some of these songs placed in other places. But like, man,

tell that food like drop the album. Do them like you do them, like y'all doing West Side Boogie, Like hey dropped the album. So I saw I'll be like, every time he shows me a new track, I'll be like, drop the album anyway. Uh, he's at Headlights Underscore music and tell him drop the album. Um have be so funny as that dropped the album for just bombless fools Instagram anyway. Okay, so for most of medical history, I mean, I'm dead serious. For most of medical history, pain was

not a prescribed thing. It's a diagnosed thing. Pain is not a thing. Pain is what happens when a thing is wrong. This is it's the it's the indicator. It's not the thing. It's the indicator of the thing. You don't treat pain. Pain is the signal that tells you you have to treat something. Are you you're following me? So there was no pain medicine. There was no pain killers other than whiskey, you know, or just getting high, right,

But like that, it wasn't a thing. So even when you go to the doctor and they give you a scale of like on a scale of one, it's end like what's your pain level? Like somebody had to think of that. And it's pretty modern because pain it wasn't. You don't prescribe it. It's if you fall and you break your arm. You don't go my arm hurts, You go my arm's broken. God need to I need to fix the bone. Don't fix the the pain goes away

when you fix the problem. That seems pretty logical, right, But then there was things like chronic pain, right, because some stuff is not fixable. When you have a chronic disease, that which means it's not going away, something like arthritis, you know what I'm saying, tendonitis, different types of things that happen to our bodies that are just they're not going away, Like there is no treating it. All you could do is try to live your life, and the way to do that is to reduce the pain. So

that's when pain became a thing. So Perdue Pharma, this company, uh basically the parents of the Sacklers that we know of. They had this idea, uh that said, well, nobody's out here dealing with chronic pain. There's no there's nothing on the market just for the pain. Of course Thailand all bear and stuff like that, right, but like just just it's a pain pill. What if and they had this idea like, okay, this is back at six, what if

we uh just treat the pain because pain sucks. We already have this like slow release opioid, but what if we like make it to where it's not as clearly an opium and have it kind of slow releasy, and we could do it in pill form and it won't be as quote unquote addictive because it's slow release. Like you can to be addicted to something that's slow released. Is the logic they said out loud, and painkillers in

oxycotton hits the streets. Now why this is so crazy is because Nigga, it's opium, Like it's an old u uh poppy plant Afghanistan, it's opium. You remember opium. You remember all them old pictures and old racist pictures of Chinese people leaning back on the tapestry with the smoke that was called opium dens. So if you smoked opium, it was considered to be I'm using these racial terms oriental, Asiatic.

It was Eastern, you know what I'm saying. So this idea of like they're just smoking the stuff, so like that version of opium was not supposed to be that was that was low class. But if it's in a pill form a look different. As as a side, there's an interesting site note the first people to get addicted to doctor prescribed drugs, which at the time was opium or Southern white women. It I'm pausing for effect they were that. I mean that was the first like drug outbreak.

Why well, because their husbands were out at war, their sons were coming back in body bags, and they had enough money to go to the doctor to prescribe what they used to call the melanchoeagues when you were just you were just sad. So then they give them these little little hits, these little happy things too cheer them up. They were actually the first to be addicted to the do you google? Very interesting thing, you know what I'm saying. But like it's different when it's high class and you're

not just a druggie you have the melancholies. Oh God, telling y'all man, there's no there is no end of the black hole of inequalities in our country anyway. Um, So back to this deal. So that's so that's the history of like of of a pain killer, right is

like it's made up. It's it's opium that you're supposed to be non addictive, which as we know, fast forward a year and a half now and it's super addictive, matter of fact, more addictive than and then in the rest of them and the Saclo family and Produe Farma purposefully hit that content and those researching like it was on purpose. They didn't tell nobody because they drug dealers. So since now you know, the opio has been recognition

reck in the woods, you know, smashing everybody. So but this federal Judge, Robert Draine approved the bankruptcy settlement a couple of wednesdays ago that grant the Sackler's global peace from any liability from the opioid epidemic. They got their choppo on because though he himself, the judge himself was like, this is trash, but I mean, what can I say, which again is another argument of how great our justice system works. Rich and guilty or you poor and innocent.

Look rich and guilty, you good? Anyway? Um, they still the Sacklers still ain't apologized, They still denied all wrongdoing. They was like, man, it sucks, that sucks that y'all died, But you know, I mean, we didn't pinion down and put it in your army. You know what I'm saying. Um, But yeah, no opioid lawsuits now perdue. Pharma itself played guilty. The company, the Corporation which cordin Old Mitch McConnell Corporations of People. The Corporation got to plead guilty. But the

Sacklers themselves are free in the clear. Now let's learn a little bit about the Sacklers themselves. Now, the Cacler family come from the descendants of Isaac Sackler and his wife Sophie, the Jewish immigrants um to the United States from Ukraine and Poland and anyway, they established this grocery business in Brooklyn. He had three sons, Arthur more to More and Raymond Sackler. They went to medical school and

they became psycho psychiatrists. Right. Uh. They were often cited as like early pioneers, Like, I mean, all this stuff is super Wikipedia easy to find, right, But they were early innovators of a lot of medical techniques which became common practice, like lombotomies, like cutting brains opened. Right. Um. They were actually first to fight for racial integration in

blood banks. I mean it's complicated, right. Then they bought this small fart summutical company produced Frederick and Raymond and more and More ran Perdue while author of their younger brother became a pioneer and like medical advertising, follow me, one dude new to science, the other dude new to marketing. What a perfect, perfect, perfect perfect combo. So then, like I said in Perdue Farmer, uh introduced oxycotton. It's a version of oxycoding reformulate. It's a slow release, right, and

it was heavily promoted. Why because they know how to push weight. Well, I tell you about Cornball. I tell you about this whole time, this thing like you know your your your street Hustler is a brilliant marketer. They're brilliant business people. They just in a thing that the company that the country don't respect. It's just they should just should have sold different drugs, because then Produce Farmer would have been you know, uh Jenkins and Gonzalez. You

know what I'm saying. I don't know. The point is, uh WHOI la amazing marketing, incredible addictive product, get you the opioid epidemic. So they heavily produced it. Then Elizabeth Sackler, which is the daughter of Arthur Sackler, claimed that her branch of the family did not practice or benefit by the sales of narcotics. Uh NIGGD. I don't know how you couldn't have. But everybody who's watching this, everybody who

lost somebody, everybody who was empowered. I was watching this was like on their head, like, no, nigga, we know what the hell you did. And while a lot of the opioid crisis because the stuff was so addictive and it was so easy to get and you can get high quick, get high easy, and you could just go to the store. Can you like you just went to the store and got it, while I opio epidemic. And again I can't stress this enough. I am not doing

this justice right. But they were in the process and really succeeding on selling legal drugs which were more deadly than a lot of drugs that are at the time not legal, Which gets us to the next part is how do you decide what's the difference between a medicine pharmaceutic cool or a narcotic drug? Dance? After this? Yea, all right, Now you may have heard these phrases before,

but they're called the scheduling of narcotics. Right now, this is at you could go, I mean any any you know food and Drug Administration, any drug any uh you know? Now sal database about the scheduling of drugs that helps you understand how they decide and what the criteria is to decide which is which. Now the I'm gonna start on the bottom so you can understand the scheduling. A. Schedule five narcotic is robot using like cough, sir, like

robotusing you know what I'm saying. Uh, motor fin which is like motoring stuff like that basic over the counter. Schedule four those are Zannies. They got some issues, but it's fine ambient volume, right. So ma, these are drugs that you need. Obviously you need to. You shouldn't be popping Zanni's for fun. You know, you can ask lotsan that's a that's a young person joke. Schedule three tailing

all with codeine, antibiolic steroids, and testosterone. Okay, now we're getting a little more like y'all you need to pay attention to what you're doing. But this stuff still over the over the counter. Now watch this. Schedule two. Okay, cocaine meth oxy coding adderall rittling and vicating. So these is like, okay, we're getting serious. You're telling me that cocaine, meth and oxy coding are not even number one my nigga.

Day number two cocaine meth oxycoding adderall rittling. So the schedules have to do with the amount of regulation, right, and which is a crime or not? Okay, So obviously once you get into the meth and coding, you know, meth cocaine, like, okay, this is a crime. You can't just be having this. You want to know if the number one Schedule one narcotic is marijuana, heroin, l s D, ecstasy, in magic, mushrooms. Does that list seem arbitrary to you?

Does that list seem like maybe it's not based in science, Maybe it has much more to do the politics then science. You're telling me, y'all gotten married, y'all got merry, y'all got weed. You could uber eats weed. They gets an app called ease out here in California. Are you could like that deliver it to the crib? Marijuana is on the same line as heroin. You're telling me, what's the scientific basis that you got cocaine as less dangerous? There's

some pot? You know what The answer is, There isn't any You got no scientific bevaness to prove. Why didn't get and why? Of all these words? Why is one of them? In Spanish? Marijuana is the Spanish word for cannabis. Why? Why all the other stuff? Why are you calling it that? Well, I'll tell you why. I'm glad you asked, uh Nixon mixings, why you're calling this calling it that and it's fucking racist? Why?

Uh one, Well, maddie Juana is the Spanish word from it, and it was coming up from Mexico, So there's that. But we do it was called cannabis when it was called pot. We knew we had other names for this stuff, but yeah, it was coming up from Mexico, right, Um, But the idea was, when you're launching the war on drugs, you attach these drugs with the people that you also don't want to round. So you're calling marijuana. Uh this marketing you call it marijuana. I mean, google me, fact

check me. You call it marijuana for the purpose of making it seem, according to them, low class and exotic. You know what I'm saying, Like it's dirty. There's madikuana. It sounds more evil than just just pot. While at the same time, again do your Google's. The United States of America holds all future patents for any medicine that comes out of marijuana research to this day, they've had it for decades, while at the same time keeping it a schedule one. Now why is it staying in schedule one?

Because you have to do uh, federally funded research to prove that, hey, this is actually very beneficial to us. Now you again. Now I'll scroll down to the magical mushroom stuff, to the LSD, to the ecstasy extasy. I ain't got no science on that one. But the LSD and the magic must froom like cybercillin and stuff like that, like that stuff has been proven with people to deal with PTSD and and um really bad like head traumas

um to help, right that. I mean, that's what you know, a lot of psychedelics have shown that, like, yeah, they help with stuff like that. Like there's a I'll drop some um. I don't have to drop him. I can tell you her name. Now, hold on Suzanne Sicily. She's at Humble Institutes for Interdisciplinary Marijuana Research. It's actually a brilliant lady. Ive seen him speak at this thing up in Eating Prayer, Utah, I believe it or not, I was up there with the white boys. That thing costs summit.

It's incredible. Anyway. Yeah, she's done a bunch of research with um vets, with with war vets dealing with serious PTSD and like, look up her research. It's like, yo, she works, y'all right, but without getting too far in the weeds. Um, there's only one university that is uh federally proved two. Build all your test studies for two

prove that marijuana is a useful medicine. But it's you have to do it from this stuff that's like powder form that's all stem and like something you've never smoked, Like no one it's like dirt weed, Like no one would smoke this. It's so it's like you're already starting with like the worst possible strand ever. But like like this is a billion dollar industry, like come on now, uh,

but it's still federally schedule one. Like yeah, I wonder, I wonder why you know what else is not on this list is you may think it's crack, but again, crack is if you don't know this crack is actually just cheap versions of cocaine. Um. But then we could talk about the eighteen and one laws, and I don't want to get into that. This is about choppo, right, So yeah, here I'm gonna quote from from this uh

vox article about the scheduling of narcotics. So the War on drugs was initiated when much of the nation was in hysterics about what drugs will do to the quote normal fabric of our country. Y'all know what the quote means. UM, it may be helpful to think of scheduling system as made up of two distinct groups, the non medical and the medical. The non medical compromises the Schedule one drugs, which are considered to have no medical value or high

potential for abuse. The medical group comprised in Schedules two through five, which have some medical value and are numerically rank based on the abuse potential. Uh, there are some cultural considerations in the scheduling system. The War on drugs was initiated at a time which minist of the nation was in hysterics about what drugs like marijuana, cannabis, and LSD would do to the fabric, the moral fabric of

our country. Marijuana was seen as dangerous, but not necessarily because of its direct health benefits, but it's perception partially rooted in racial injustices. The pot makes people immoral, lazy, and even violent. Wait makes your violet. I don't know what we drew had. The perception persists among many supporters of the War on drugs to this day, and it's

still reflected in America's drug scheduling. Beyond the scheduling system, the federal government imposes criminal trafficking penalties on drugs that are not always aligned with their scheduling. For instance, marijuana trafficking is generally punished less for less since severely than cocaine. U states governments set up their own criminal penalties and schedules for drugs as well. So that's the way to

think about drugs scheduling. Now back to our situation we're dealing with here with the perdue farm of family, all right, the Sacular family, Perdue farm of country. They're dealing with a schedule to drug on the line with Riddling and Viking and lied about its degree of potential of abuse, right because they said it was non addictive. Clearly it is and decimated our country. I keep I want to keep saying this to you. It decimated our country. And

now they're not liable. They were able to declare bankrupt and they got to be l Choppo out this mug now more LA's story. Bosses don't go to jail, and especially boss white people unless the white people to start deciding you sucking up the money. So what did they do? They put the baby to sleep? You kill the company. The company played guilty. You can always start a new company. Yeah, it's you can always bounce back. Last night took a hell, but tonight I'll bounced back. You get your chopow. You

know what I'm saying. Let him put you down, you get out. You be all right? Now, what's our takeaway? Our takeaway is this, there are a lot of young families who found themselves with the cousin and uncle auntie, somebody facing severe criminal charges over the use of these opioids. Now these people are in lawsuits against the companies and

the retail outlets for which put these drugs in their hands. Right, what we've said time and time again about being abolitionists, about being about criminal justice reform, is you're penalizing a person for there biology reacting the way that our biology would when you put an addictive substance in it. If you take cocaine in crack form, you are going to be addicted. That's just it's our biology. If you're taking opioids,

you're going to be addicted. Addiction can't be criminal. Y'all, Like that's just now, what you do when you're high, that's a different story. Then you've committed a crime. But having a possession of a drug that's clearly addictive. We got to rethink this, and especially when the person that put it in my hands it's not criminally liable. Some may write, I mean, I'm just what does that mean

to us? That mean that, Like, well, there's a lot of non violent offenders sitting in the prisons right now that some states have let go, have expunge charges, like a lot of like, uh, marijuana charges, David, let go, because I mean this it is legal in most states. Like this is crazy, Like why are you still in jail for this? That's number one. Number two. Maybe we

need to interrogate the entire system itself. Maybe somebody needs to get into office and think about what do how who decided these schedulings, and how can we change this? Do I do we have a say in how drugs are scheduled? Because clearly this these choices are cultural. They're not scientific, right, They're not. It's not based on this ain't based on science, obviously, it's based on lobbyists. I mean,

I just based on American fears. What the article just said, and finally, we need to figure out a way to hold those that are accountable accountable. How do we do that from the hood, Well, I don't know. I know war on drugs felt like the war on the poor. I know this opioid epidemic feel real similar.
