What's your strategy for when civilization collapses?
« on: May 11, 2011, 06:21:22 PM »
 I'm trying to get my hands on land in a remote area. Build a ranch out there that is as self-sustainable as possible. Try to set up in an area where I can gather food and materials from the land as much as possible. Trying to get out of the city, get away from "civilization".

 What's your plan? Especially city folks. How are you gonna deal with it when the shit goes down?

 I just hope it all comes down soon.

 The way it's going now is no good at all.

 Time for a major revolution.

Im gonna bug out to My parents home. They own a restraunt. They have hundreds of pounds of potatoes and other food stored in the basement. I have enough firerpower to arm them. They have two dogs that will work as a detternt/ early alarm system. We will try to keep a low profile. I hope to god we don't go through a collapse. There will be a lot of suffering. I don't want to see any love ones get hurt or worse.

You seem to have alot of fascination with the world coming to its doom. Is it perhaps that your realize your existence is wretched and miserable and perhaps you hope everyone to be down to your level?

My grandparents had a bomb shelter back in the day of the "cold war" between Russia and USA this is a good idea tension is rising. Just take some weights, cash, some canned goods and numbers of hoes to call = good to go.

One drastic change might happen soon though, and that is when the rich class enslaves the poor class through technology. You never hear about this, but this is THE.VERY.REAL.THREAT that we are facing. Only way to stop this what I see is ultra communism, putting everyone on the same line. Not going to happen of course.

When civilization collapses it may be the perfect time to finally start dieting.

 No. It's because I read and I can see where the world is headed.

 Anyone who is well educated in environmental science, and the technologies that are coming in the future knows that it's VERY likely that a major catastrophe will happen.

 The environment is getting destroyed quickly right now. But you have to study and look hard to see it.

 Sea levels are rising.
 
 Then rainforests of South America and Africa are being destoryed quickly.

 Bio-diversity is dwindling quickly.

 Resources like oil, phosphate and other minerals are running low.

 Water shortages and major droughts are on the horizon.

 Climate change IS happening. Face it.

 Deadly viruses are being created in labs. If one escapes into the population, we're fucked.

 The list goes on and on. Mankind is in a place it's never been before. Most people choose to ignore these things and not thinkabout them though.

 Exactly.

 People are living their lives as if they don't need to care about the environment. And most people don't give a shit about the environment or know anything about it.

 For right now we can take as much as we want of most things. But in a couple more decades the party will end, the keg will be tapped, and we'll sober up and realize it can't last forever.

 Oil will run out, sea levels will rise and floods will come. Droughts will start coming. The rainforests will get destroyed. It's not a question of if, but when. It's not slowing down and we aren't having a green revolution. The green revolution is bullshit.

 People just don't want to face the ugly awful truth.
