Again I reiterate that none of us are going to be cast into a post apocalypse dystopia lol like you DO not have to prep for 28 years on your own -honestly most of us would not last even two weeks "on our own" in a murderpocalypse hahaha its like your creators would not subject you to that -its kind of the left over collective traumas of the concentration camps and hiroshima that have us really wondering all the time.
? truth is we are incredibly vulnerable society is far too vulnerable to collapse all of a sudden and so incredibly wealthy that it wouldn't last more than a few days if it did happen
if it did happen and we are all thrust into the twisted ages.....most of us would NOT last beyond 3 weeks survival wise, addiction wise and health wise, most people would be eating each other after the two to three week mark
do NOT spend your life savings prepping for an apocalypse it just wont happen
while its a good idea to prepare for something for around a week of survival
just for earthquakes and such
if you can just stay put until you cannot defend your home and take instructions to migrate elsewhere that is safer but you should reasonably be able to defend your home with your family without too much chaos
they know this is the easiest way to control people- make them scared
remember they have advanced psychologist thinktanks charting world events at all times playing on your deepest held fears
Technology is going to get 100x more advanced in the next ten years just so you know and we are all going places so focus your spending for a doompocalypse on something fun for yourself have a few steak dinners buy some wine or coke and chill out for awhile just relax you are alive you are HERE right now this very moment kitties :)
