CDZ Time to Start Prepping

[Picaro]

If the weatherman says you have 30 minutes to get to a fall out shelter due to a hurricane, you don't want to wake up the next morning with just the clothes on your back. Then, again, that appears to be what most people are comfortable with. I started carrying a Go Bag (Get Outta Dodge Bag, Bug Out Bag) when I was single many years ago. I could leave town or stay over somewhere and still have everything I needed the next morning. It morphed into a three day bag by the time I found out about prepping.

Everyone should have a 3-day bag.
My brother, somehow, was caught off-guard by hurricane Florence, which ran over top of him, just SW of Wilmington NC
He bugged out to my dad's place in Tampa, but had an issue with getting gas.
Why he didn't have 10-20 extra gallons on hand during hurricane season is beyond me.

I was amazed at how few Californians prepare for anything, during my first blackout experience there; they had a lot of power blackouts in the Bay area when I lived there, so it made no sense these people never even so much as had flashlights or batteries stocked up. I had a couple of car batteries and a small generator stored on my patio, so my neighbors would see my apartment lit up like normal; the local Sikhs would come over and use my propane grill to cook food for their kids during the long ones. They were great neighbors, patrolled the neighborhood wearing their swords and knives, the real ones not the ceremonial stuff; the crime rate was nearly nil, some small petty thefts now and then, which was excellent for a neighborhood surrounded by criminal illegal aliens, most of whom spent most of their time getting drunk on the curbs all day long.

Actually if you really think a Big Giant Crash is coming you want to borrow as much as you can; nobody is going to be around to collect debts, so many people will be bankrupt it won't do them any good, they can't seize everybody's assets, and even if they did they couldn't get their money back anyway. There is a reason why mafioso and other hoods will try and borrow a lot of money from somebody they know is going to get killed.

Since you laugh this all off, I suppose you don't prepare for anything. God, I would hate to think you're a hypocrite that has really bought insurance for his home or automobile.

If you weren't a certified moron, I might care about your stupid opinions.

 

[MisterBeale]

Can preparers explain this to me?
If society collapses, what are you prepping for?
Do you want to live in a world where society has collapsed and there is rampant crime and disorder?
To what benefit does living through a collapse hold?
Do you look forward to eking an existence in a world more akin to the 19th century that the 21st?
Why?

I have a buddy that fantasizes about it.

He hates taxes.

I guess this is preferable to taxes?

There's an entire industry catering to them. Don't know why other hobbies don't appeal to them.

 

[WinterBorn]

There was a craze about prepping for a while. Even a tv show. Those weren't preppers, but wannabes.

I think just as many prepare now as before, they are just quiet about it. That way you get fewer visitors after.

 

[Tumblin Tumbleweed]

Only thing I should do is dig a well and put a hand pump on it.

No sense in relying on generators and things like that.

Why not do both?

 

[WinterBorn]

I think to discuss prepping, we need to differentiate between short-term and long-term disasters.

Someone posted an example of rolling blackouts. Something like that would be a few days. A serious but common natural disaster would be a few weeks. There are things that would force us to survive on our own for a few months to a year. Even social collapse would have some recovery in a year or less.

And then there is the post-apocalyptic, utter destruction kind of prepping.

It's like a fetish. I have news for them...save some idiot getting an itchy nuke finger or rogue asteroid, there will be no collapse. Those in power are power driven. Collapse means relinquishing that power. Not gonna happen.

. . . meh. . . I am not so sure.


It is a really arrogant and ignorant outlook to have to believe that our global civilization can never collapse. I am sure all of the other civilizations that have preceded ours also thought that theirs would last forever.

. . . and yet?

Some actually believe that last can never happen.


I remember reading about the The Carrington Event.

MASSIVE CORONAL MASS EJECTIONS.

If that were to happen today? There is a very good chance our global civilization would collapse. Energy would be out for months. Then the rioting would start. Hospitals would be out of electricity, the grid would be down for over a year. It would be a disaster as supply chains would collapse, complete chaos. Congress has debated hardening the system, but it always gets voted down. Just like when they debate having a system to search and destroy asteroids. We know this is a matter of time. . . .

If you had any balls or brains, you wouldn't talk shit on the Internet. It don't take but a coward to call someone a moron. What's YOUR IQ? It's not as high as your shoe size.

 

[Porter Rockwell]

Not sure how much prepping folks can do, when Big Brother can take away everything you have saved. What is the point?





Doesn't anyone remember this?

Executive Order 6102 - Wikipedia

What makes folks think the same won't be done with silver and gold once they switch everyone over to a completely digital world wide currency and marital law is declared everywhere?

If you horde food, water and ammo? They will declare you a terrorist. I am pretty sure, there are already some laws on the books about this.

You could be right, but the plan is to make everyone a subject.

 

[Marion Morrison]

Bah! That time was 6 years ago.

Only thing I should do is dig a well and put a hand pump on it.

No sense in relying on generators and things like that.

I have the well, but how would I convert the electric pump to a hand pump? Where would you find a new hand pump? I saw a bunch of rusty hand pumps at a flea market a couple of years ago and thought, hmmmmm, one of those could come in handy, kicking myself that I didn't buy it....

I think I'm gonna have issues with getting the water up with a hand pump, the well is 400 ft deep.... but I was thinking once the hard work was put in to prime it, then it could be easier?? I dunno?

It has to be a shallow or artesian well. Here it would be a shallow sand well @ around 30-35 feet.

That would be like a North Korea or Stalinist type deal, and they would just steal your horde, and probably kill you for having one in the first place, yes. My guess is biological disasters, unintentional or intentional, are the more likely to be widespread than nukes and the more devastating, and very few people can 'prep' for that sort of thing. Even those eventually die out on their own.

 

[Deplorable Yankee]

According to recent news stories, preppers are thinning out; calling it due to their confidence in Donald Trump:

Doomsday preppers are thinning out across the US, and it may be because President Trump quiets their fears

Meanwhile, economists, realizing that all presidential administrations end and historical cycles repeat themselves think millennials are about to be up against hard times:

The Next Recession Will Destroy Millennials

Millennials are much poorer than their parents

So, if you are of a survival mindset, wouldn't you think that NOW is a more appropriate time to begin prepping rather than to wait until the excrement interacts with the electric oscillating device? And when I say prepping, it is not limited to being able to survive unspeakable calamities, but to have actual assets so that when jobs are scarce, you have something to fall back on and maybe a skill set that you can adapt to a failing economy?

If you wait until the SHTF, you waited too long. Stuff triples in price; it becomes scarce and the current generations are not preparing for their own future, so nobody has anything to bargain with.

2020 may be this countries last election
if we make it to 2030 without some spicy time I'd be shocked

If its a super volcano , killer asteroid, or all out nuclear war it no longer matters because barely anything will survive it .
For all other SHTF scenarios
The only way to really properly bug out (if youre not already rural or off the grid) is to pre bug out .....urbanites you may be stuck Dont worry the government and the UN is coming to save you ...wait for the trucks........

Suburbanites depends where you are........where ever that is expect commies and zombies. If you're in Nassau and Suffolk county NY Id probably get a boat ...it'll be your only escape ...1000 bucks the local rednecks still out in Suffolk will be slaughtering everything that moves .

IF youre in the suburbs that backyard pool is a great reservoir have something on hand to purify it with

Ammo
water supply
Food
MRES are good to have BUT learn how to grow your own and preserve it ..
learn how to preserve meat
Greenhouses on yer property are your friends

Rabbits produce like rabbits are easy to keep and are tasty
Hunting and fishing .......if ya dont already GET TO IT
Antibotics and other meds ...(Vaccum packed while civilization is still standing )
sSmall denomination Blank Gold and silver rounds
learn skills , improve on those ya already have
A local SHTF family n friends circle
some everyday things you can buy in bulk like toilet paper and rice ...use and rotate yer stock.
Books are also your friends ..For instance medical books
You can take it much further like some have and are
From solar panels to diesel storage tanks to ham radio set ups

Anything can set off a total collapse ..whatever it may be When the trucks stop rolling walgreens will be outta toilet paper and tylenol ...maybe forever

no 911 services, no electricity, no water/sewage ...yer fuckdiddlyucked flanders

I like civilization
I like flushing the toilet , having a hot shower everyday ,flicking on the light switch, Jumping into the leather bucket seats and heading to the piggly wiggly for a twelve pack and a rib eye ....having a white American guy detail my car ....DOING THE JOBS AMERICANS WONT DO ....pfffft pfffft pfffft

Hope for the best prepare for the worst
Prepping not just an anglo sphere or american thing
Anglo sphere meaning Canadian , down under ,and NZ


Prepper Girlz France

Very Very few societies simply evaporate. Societies decline over time and are consumed by greater, more powerful ones. Yes there are famines, yes there are diseases but global collapse to the levels of "The Road" is absurd.
The ideas propagated by 'doom preppers' are total collapse. My argument is simply that, saving some extreme disaster..nuclear...biological...astrological...it's just not gonna happen.
Further...planning for some global catastrophe is a bit paranoid. I mean one could have worse hobbies...but.

Maybe your buddy hates control and taxes represent the way we are held in slavery and forced to finance our own bondage.

On my posts, I'm concerned heavily with unalienable Rights. Most people don't get that about Freedom and Liberty. Unalienable Rights are those Rights that preexisted before the Constitution was penned. Those kinds of Rights cannot be bought, sold, traded, with-held, forfeited, or infringed. Few understand that.

Many people prep so as to be ready for natural disasters and unforeseen circumstances. Even in those scenarios we generally bounce back in a few weeks - even under the worst of conditions. We have insurance and so forth, so preparing for a few weeks without the power grid shouldn't be that hard. I just don't understand why more people don't do it. We ought to make that a required high school course.

Beyond that, some prep for an armed invasion into the United States. Rocket Man, at least for me, symbolizes the kind of fruit loop with delusions of grandeur big enough to try and attack the U.S. His goals may not be the U.S., but he represents the kind of person we all fear.

The next major fear from outright invasion comes from our own government becoming tyrannical. Some envision tanks and troops or maybe roving bands of terrorists like antifa wreaking havoc on the landscape. At the current time, I don't see that happening.

The United States has the most external debt in the world with China and Japan owning well in excess of 2 TRILLION DOLLARS of our debt. Owning large chunks of our debt and funneling billions upon billions worth of goods into the United States, they play a major influence in our politics. The left would love to emulate them. For that reason, I think part of prepping ought to include understanding the problems that we are faced with, who the players are, and how they are controlling America. I think real preppers already do this to some extent, but fall short due to partisan politics. This area of prepping should be expanded on and topics like the influence of drugs and drug money coupled with political propaganda, and political guerrilla warfare should be examined much more closely than in the past.

Without the right amounts of knowledge in each area, we may fail as a nation without ever having had a chance to defend our Freedoms and Liberties.

True enough.


The global economic collapse is being engineered by these elites with every passing day, week, month and year. They have the solution already prepared and are just waiting for the world's population to beg them for their solution in waiting. . . .

The left, and the right, on here, day after day, argue with each other, believing that Trump, Obama, Clinton, Putin, etc. are all somehow different, or that they are somehow not ALL in playing their roles with the media.

It is all a stage, a play, with the media.


The founders warned us about it. The American people have forgotten and become like any other nation, slaves, their real freedom stolen.

What you described is Hegelian Dialectics and it has been used against us on both social and economic issues. My critics, who don't understand how the system works, often refer to me as a "moron." Irony is, they are the ones being played.
