I would honestly love it, srs.

Our current society makes it easy for pussies to survive, we need to cull the herd a bit.

I'm 50/50 on this.

I don't know that it would be worth the struggle to live post war but it would be interesting as hell to try.

Prepare over a period of time too. Purchase bits and pieces each month and you'll be well prepared down the line.

No need to prepare beyond what's reasonable. If you are a "prepper" you are one of the first that will have their sh!t stolen.

Just lol at amassing 1ks of rounds of ammo. You will never survive that many firefights and you don't barter with ammo, that round you traded could be the one that takes you out.

You need a network of people you trust and you need to have skills that are valuable to a community in a survival situation, eg. Basic working knowledge of electronics/radio equipment, combustion engines, agriculture, animal husbandry, basic medicine/first aid, carpentry, security/combat, and brewing/distillation.

Anyone you don't trust is an immediate threat. Survival is 0-100, on/off, until things levelout. And even then you need to assume strangers want what you have and will kill to take it.

Finally, as some have already alluded, the weak will be killed or all but enslaved early on. The west is full of weak people. Survival is all about will and skill.

Disagree on the ammo. If chit goes downhill to the point that you're shooting people without police then responding, things are probably staying bad for a while. Which means you probably need to take things like hunting for food into consideration. You also have possible entered the normally unthinkable scenario of shooting at threats while they are still too far away to hit simply as a deterrent.

Truth is, if you're in a city, you're going to be toast in a true apocalyptic emergency though. People way out in the burbs with sufficient supplies and the ability to stay low key might be okay.

Lol at this guy. A pretty basic combat load for a light firefight is around 150 rounds. If you need to hunt as well it's only going to sustain you for a few years.

Also, "brb build a network and get security". If 1k rounds is a lot for you then have fun arming 2 other people at best lmfao. Good security against coyotes I guess, but gangs or mobs, nah.

And no, ammo is excellent for trading if you are in desperate need of medicine, fuel, and sustenance. Brb just die to the elements or starvation because you don't want to potentially get shot by somebody who already has ammunition and just needs to restock.

Prion disease is known as "zombie" disease in animals

"Zombie deer” disease, also known as chronic wasting disease, is a type of prion disease that affects deer, elk, and moose. Prions are small, abnormal, infectious proteins that cause proteins in the body to fold abnormally, especially in the brain and spinal cord.

https://abcnews.go.com/Health/zombie...ry?id=61107970

and what do we have here....

COVID-19 RNA Based Vaccines and the Risk of Prion Disease

Review of COVID-19 Vaccines and the Risk of Chronic Adverse Events Including Neurological Degeneration(Prion Disease)

They even told you they were going to do this to you..an outbreak of prion disease within a couple of years after taking the vaccine for the pandemic, in a John Hopkins SPARS PLandemic Scenario

"As time passed and more people across the United States were vaccinated, claims of adverse side effects began to emerge. Several parents claimed that their children were experiencing neurological symptoms similar to those seen among livestock exposed to the GMI vaccine. By May 2027, parental anxiety around this claim had intensified to the point of lawsuits. That month, a group of parents whose children developed mental retardation as a result of encephalitis in the wake of Corovax vaccination sued the federal government, demanding removal of the liability shield protecting the pharmaceutical companies responsible for developing and manufacturing Corovax"

I would add a drone with a camera that sends the image to a handheld device. Let's you get situational awareness, scout out potential routes to take, see any animals you can hunt, see any people around etc.
