I've been thinking of stocking up on extra non perishable food while my local economy is still decent in the event that it crashes. Should I be mocked for that? Many if not most are referring to the end of the world as we know it not that the planet will cease to exist. As an example: No power means you can't use your toaster for your Pop Tarts.

Bowyn Aerrow User ID: 12560157 United States 03/27/2012 09:34 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Most preppers are not preparing for the 'end of the world'. They are preparing for a long term, change in civilization which is akin to the end of the world but is not, since this is survivable if you prepare and know enough and have enough skills and resources to make it through the collapse and to the rebuilding phase. If any prepper knew that the world would end - as in everybody was going to die no matter what, they wouldn't be prepping for anything except that massive party at the End of the World. End of the world is a phrase thrown out way too often that has no real bearing on most of what people think may happen. Even the Super Flu which is predicted to wipe out 95% of humanity is not 'the end of the world' as 5% of humanity stands a high chance of surviving, reorganizing and rebuilding. Albeit there will be a generation between collapse and rebuilding. "My Dog, its full of fleas!" -David Bowwow “A paranoid is someone who knows a little of what's going on. A psychotic is a guy who's just found out what's going on.” - William S. Burroughs |

ZIPUX User ID: 4394297 United Kingdom 03/27/2012 11:47 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I don't buy into the end of the world crap. I'm a humanist, and yes we can see humans who are greedy, who via multinational companies seem to rule the earth and humanity to the point of destruction, but their days are numbered, period. Many more people need to muster their faith within our own species, people who know what is right, and care more about their neighbour than how much profit they can make from them. These people will prevail, evolution is about progress of our species, not retrograde societal progress, even though it seems apparent at this time they are winning, but no, they will lose. The Earth is practically indestructible, really it is, read this blog article, it's very interesting. [link to qntm.org] We are not as indestructible as our home, but if we live with it, and not against it, we have a very good opportunity as a species to thrive. We just need to rid it of individuals who are personally greedy at the cost of everyone else. Do not believe in the shit crap that those who rule us at this time, that this planet cannot support 'x' number if humans, As Bill Carling once commentated on, the earths golf courses (areas) alone could feed the most needy of us humans who need it. The wealthy who think they are rich, are more poorer as humans that have nothing, but things are hotting up, and we are living in times of change. I want to encourage anyone reading this, the sick, the Bush/Blair/Clintons etc, etc...the list is way too long, their day of hanging is drawing near, hold on tight through this shit storm of our societal progression, we will get there, we have too, otherwise we will fail as a complete species, and do you think these cranky power money driven individuals can determine our future, hmm no, they will fail. I know it's hard to see it now, as there seem to be so much apathy, but as a UK citizen, I know from experience underneath the seemingly calm exterior, there is inside of most of us, the ability to fight off and 'kill' this despotic and corrupt society that has run it's course in our history. WE will prevail over madness, to ensure not a child dies one day for the lack of clean water, that is our responsibility, and that is what we will achieve, and it will NOT be done via the like of the Bill Gates depopulation evil strategy, rather one that is built on love for one and other. |
Skiidz User ID: 2208637 United States 03/27/2012 11:52 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Preperation does not make you an idiot. For example, I keep a large backpack in my truck filled with medical supplies, food, and equipment. It's absolutely a bug out bag. And yes, you have a valid point. The world may never end, World War 3 may never start. But I have USED 80% of my supplies in this bug out bag to help my friends who get in accidents, if I'm stuck on the road hungry I got something to eat, If I need to start a fire for any reason or need supplies its right there with me at all times. There was a gentlemen helping my mother move the other day and he gashed his hand open on some metal. He was bleeding pretty bad. Not a problem though, I PATCHED HIM UP with my supplies. You're an idiot if you don't prepare for basic safety, medical and needs to be with you at all times or within reach. |

Grocery stores were ransacked as well as many other supplies outlets. People don't understand, walmart, gas stations, pharmacies, equipment stores and anything else - if a natural disaster occurs you might have 8 hours tops to get what you need. Then your stuck with what you got. Goodluck with that theory, i'll be set and laughing at you. |

Why does it bother you what someone else does? Do you secretly agree something is going to happen and feel the need to rage out to justify that it won't happen? I think you know something is up. I don't think the world is going to end but there are things worse than death. With all the military posturing happening around the world, it's only a matter of time before the real shit hits the fan. Wouldn't you want to be a little bit prepared for it? Sounds to me like you're afraid of something. |
