      would you be surprised to know that the bible talked about nukes and "climate change"???
      zechariah 5 talks about nukes (note mistranslation of lady replace with fire offering, and lead is pyproduct of uranium and plutonium. no word in old hebrew for radiation)
      and rev. 13 talks about "climate change" agenda and how they use it.
      this UN "climate change" or more accurately CARBON AGENDA. CARBON is described by man as 6 protons, 6 neutrons, 6 electrons or 6.66. nothing wrong with carbon but, there agenda is to depopulate carbon based lifeforms. we here this # mentioned at rev. 13: 16,17 "It puts under compulsion all people-the small and the great, the rich and the poor, the free and the slaves-that these should be marked on their right hand or on their forehead, 17 and that nobody can buy or sell except a person having the mark, the name of the wild beast or the number of its name. $6.66"
      bill gates also uses the UN # as a patent #0606.06. a reward in cbdc for having tech. implanted in you and tracks you, so you stay in 15 min. cities and do and say what they want. elon musk is making NEURA-LINK "mark on forehead", bill gates is also pushing for global digital id. "mark on hand". UN is asking for "emergency powers" over climate change by 2030. if we DON'T do these things we are gifted everlasting life in paradise on earth.
      psalms 37: 11 "But the meek will possess the earth, And they will find exquisite delight in the abundance of peace."
      rev. 21: 3,4 "Look! The tent of God is with mankind, and he will reside with them, and they will be his people. And God himself will be with them. 4 And he will wipe out every tear from their eyes, and death will be no more, neither will mourning nor outcry nor pain be anymore. The former things have passed away."

      What do you think of solar generators? I have no generator at the moment and I think a gas generator is useless once you run out of gas. I haven't searched your videos yet for generator info and will do so now. Thanks for the heads up. The "obummers" movie they just produced is priming everyone for the grid going down. A form of desensitizing I believe.

    I don't bother suggesting to people to prepare for tough times anymore. They all have 2 things in common; they look at me like I have 3 eyeballs and they all say, ''oh, the government won't let that happen.'' My biggest concern is the power grid failing/being taken out. Here is a little info on larger power transformers, such as those that feed hospitals/large buildings. (not towns which are larger and take longer to build) I have been involved with ordering 2 recently. 18-24 mos production time.....this is for the normal number of orders placed with the manufacturer.. TODAY. NOT after SHTF/sabotage where they will be flooded with orders for emergency repairs. Some parts are made in China/other off shore countries. Do you think they will still supply those parts if we are at war with them?

      Poland recently blocked our border; we were faced with a sharp, but not yet critical, increase in prices for all products (I live in Ukraine). People reacted the same way to my calls to buy buckwheat (it is no longer sold abroad, it costs like bread here). What is a blackout I saw while returning on foot from the hospital at midnight: since due to the war we have a shortage of electricity, it is turned off closer to midnight, and the city is plunged into darkness, and there is no one on the road except the police and the military.

      I recently read the book 'One Second After.' Although it is fiction, the human behavior portrayed is not. The conditions presented even more so strengthened my goal to further prepare to be as self-reliant as possible. One advantage I have is living on 3.5 half forested acres. There is an independent well that has been professionally tested. I have built a green house and a walk-in generator shed. I will be adding a secondary and larger generator to it. The exhaust is vented to the exterior. My intent is to transition it for EMP protection. Next year I will be adding a chicken coop. Early this year I had a tree trimming company, clearing branches away from the power lines on our road, dump truck loads of woodchips on my acreage. I asked where they were dumping it. They said about 15 miles away. I said they can dump it 1,500 feet away on my acreage. The crew jumped on it and even trimmed down a dead tree leaning over the power line on my land just enough not to fall on the line. I spread them out 8" to cover about 2,000 square feet. That will be for the chickens to run around in. Ten years ago, before I retired from the army, some of my family thought I was a doomsdayer when I said I will be living on an acreage that we may need to basically survive on. With what I have done here over the past five years I haven't heard much about being a doomsdayer. Maybe reality has set in.

    Seeds!!! You can grow food in a milk container or even a can. Take a "hike" or drive around town and spot out sources of water others may just pass by. We found tiny creeks on the outskirts of town that people swore were dry or had no knowledge of. Water purification methods don't have to cost an arm and leg. Everyone forgets plastic shower curtains. If there's no heat, you can cover windows and doors with them and it's a great help. Lived offgrid one year in Wyoming and learned a lot.

The question is when look at the Maya´s and the roman empire their society collapsed because they were complex and advanced for their time.

    Okay, a few things if I may and this is from an average middle age guy’s perspective, lol.
    Yep, for people that keep track of things, this is known and I’ve read the reports over the years. The thing to remember is that I’m pretty sure we do the same thing to China and Russia, we just don’t hear about it.
    While I don’t trust either China or Russia, it reminds me of the nuclear MAD philosophy. I don’t think they are dumb enough to try something because they know there would be repercussions.
    You are definitely spot on about our aging power grid needing updated as well as being careful on where you get your news/information from because there is an awful lot of fear mongering going on out there. Seems to be for views, likes, money and trying to sell something.
    The most realistic and probable event would be some type of solar storm to affect the grid, but just like a man made event, I have absolutely no control over that whatsoever.
    What I do have control over is how I respond to those situations and how I have planned for an emergency. Do I prepare for a SHTF situation? Nope, because that’s a fantasy many people have and seem to enjoy.
    The most probable situation is some type of natural disaster because they happen quite frequently. So, I plan for a month or so. Anything after that, it’s either game over or the cavalry arrives.
    The big thing, for me, is that I’m going to live and enjoy my life and not live it in fear, like some people. Is it prudent to prepare like our grandparents did for hard times or bad storms? Heck yes! Does it make sense to spend a bunch of money, and your time, over a long period of time and have a years worth of food, water, etc? Nope, because the time and money spent could have been used to benefit your self and your family.
    Okay, I’ll get off my soap box and sorry for the rant 😅.

    I have enough non-perishable food for about 2 months, but I am of the opinion that the best preparation is to acquire SKILLS, because what you have learned, no one can steal them from you! My slogan: Today I learn what others won't, so tomorrow I can do what others can't! To this end, although I am already a 58-year-old man, my hobby is "survival in extreme conditions". For example, I've been sleeping on a hard surface (on a board) for about 26 years, and I've been following the raw Carnivore diet for about 4 years, meaning I eat raw meat and raw offal 99 percent of the time (like raw liver, raw brain, drink fresh blood, etc.). This is not only good for training, but it also restored my health, I feel like as if I am only 30 years old... My energy skyrocketed, my prediabetes gone...
    I also eat certain insects, even those alive: May beetles, mealworms, superworms, grasshoppers, locusts, cicadas, crickets, and I even swallow live earthworms without batting an eye!
    Of course, I also have a Bug-Out-Bag, but I wouldn't despair if I lost it, in case of at least I would have a good machete handy, because even then I am able to put together a warm shelter for myself.
    Anyway, I don't need much because I'm an extreme minimalist, I currently only live on 14 square meters including the bathroom.If a big disaster happens, I will not cry and I will not despair, but I will laugh, because at that moment my role will be valued, not only will I be among the survivors, but many other people will immediately run to me to be their leader, because they will need me, my knowledge. I can set traps, preserve meat in primitive conditions, get water even when there is no lake or stream nearby, and I even have serious knowledge of first aid, but I can also perform simpler operations. In fact, I wrote a novel about a similar situation: the content is, in short, that there is a work-avoiding vagabond who lives by hunting and dumpster-diving because he hates work, he doesn't even hide it that he hates to work, but he's great at this kind of survival stuff. And when it happens that a group of people gets into a very, very unpleasant situation, where they would perish within moments, they are lucky that this despised vagabond is among them, because he saves all of them, he becomes the leader of the team, a real "tribe chief"...
    Because at that moment, his knowledge becomes more valuable.
    I therefore do not see a possible disaster as a threat, but as a future challenge, and I am optimistic about success, although it will obviously be a significant test for me as well. And of course, it is also possible that I will die, but I consider the chances of that to be insignificant.
    If I survive the first week or so of the disaster because I don't die in some unforeseeable random event, for example because I'm swept away by a landslide or because a big bomb is dropped on my house, then I shouldn't have any problems after that.

      ​@@PracticalPreparedness There is no need to overdramatize the risks of infection. The fact is, my dear friend, that the human stomach is just as acidic as that of scavengers, and it is so acidic precisely because it deals with pathogens, because for millions of years our ancestors also consumed carrion, and in large quantities! Now, if they didn't get sick from the stinking DEAD meat, then we shouldn't have any problems with the FRESH meat.
      I did an experiment on myself: I had already eaten smelly, half-rotten meat, and it didn't cause me any problems, not even the slightest. And it was also delicious, because the taste reminded me of certain aged cheeses!
      I've eaten shrews raw. I caught it with my own bare hands. In fact, I have eaten raw fish intestines and raw octopus.
      Parasites can be a greater danger than bacterial infections, that's true, but firstly, the meat must be obtained from a reliable source, and secondly, parasites are not AS dangerous as they are believed to be. You probably still have just now a bunch of microscopic parasites living inside of you that even medical science doesn't know about because they haven't been discovered. What's more, there are also examples where a parasite infection is especially beneficial to us. For example, it was found out about toxoplasmosis, which can be caught from cats, that although it really CAN be dangerous for us in certain cases, for example, it can cause miscarriage in pregnant women, etc., but it can be especially useful in the case of an otherwise healthy person, because it affects his (or even HER!) behavior in such a way that he or she will be more suitable for a leadership role in communities. i.e., you are more likely to become a leader of groups of people, and thus be more successful in life in general! Some autoimmune diseases are now cured by infecting the patient with intestinal worms, because intestinal worms produce immunosuppressive compounds for their own benefit. So nothing is just black and white.
      You will not get sick if there are no pathogens in you, this is an unattainable state, and it would not even be desirable to live so sterile, because then you would get autoimmune diseases, since your unemployed immune system would be desperately looking for something to do. You are healthy when there is a balance, an equilibrium among all the pathogens living in you, and between these pathogens and your own cells.
      In fact, almost all pathogens have benefits for us. Seen through today's eyes, the caveman could have been a collection of horrible diseases walking on two legs, but he was still stronger than us, and according to recent research, he did live as long as us, sometimes even longer, and he did not suffer from the diseases of civilization, his women were fertile, he was not depressed, etc. And actually, he had BIGGER BRAIN SIZE... The only truth about the legends about the early man's low age is that child mortality was really high at that age, and there was a high chance of violent death as well. However, if he avoided an early death as a child, and as an adult he was not eaten by a member of another tribe, or by some wild animal, and he did not die while hunting, then he too easily lived to the age of 80 or more, and happily!

      @@DaughterofJesustheChrist The reason you answered this to me is probably because you feel that eating these things takes some awfully large amount of determination and willpower. However, the secret is not to see it as a task, but as fun! Enjoy the fact that you are developing if you do something like this, consider that this makes you special, superior to the "others", the "grey crowd", who have become too comfortable, who are addicted to technology, civilization, services, who, so to speak, consumer idiots... and who will naturally be the first victims of any disaster for this very reason!
      But YOU will survive because YOU are trained, you are BRAVE, because you are special, yes...
      You should enjoy this kind of thing, not endure it!
      All such "hard" things can be achieved if one first changes one's self-image. I would have thought this about myself unimaginable a long time ago, but then when I started to think of myself as a "modern caveman" - this is what my nickname here on RUclips, "carnivorecaveman" refers to - everything became easy, and since then I'm already directly looking for new opportunities to be even more "ancient", more primitive, more caveman-like. For example, I also learned Mongolian throat singing, because in my eyes it is also such an ancient, primitive whatyamacallit thing, it fits well with my self-image. And day after day, I use my own-created primitive forks made from bones. And so on.
      I can't even imagine that I would ever return to the previous carbohydrate-eating, sickening diet, I don't need any willpower to not be tempted to eat the oversweetened artificial concoctions, they simply don't attract me and even repel me... Because they don't fit my self-image! It is not on willpower, I don't even think I have ANY willpower at all. Sure, I have to have some of "willpower", but deeply believe it is not at all more than that of anybody else. It is simply on the SELF-IMAGE.
      Changing your SELF-IMAGE is a prerequisite for any successful lifestyle change. If you succeed, you will stay on the right path even without willpower. If it doesn't work, then everything is in vain, you can only endure the new lifestyle for a few weeks and relapse.

      Great writeup. I completely agree. Nothing is black and white, nothing is purely bad with no benefit(although I will admit some pros can be hard to find). The same reason we have to work our bodies back up to drinking river or creek water, our bodies over generations have not been exposed to the natural diversity in nature. Same with meat. Although now we have nasty human-made chemicals and other issues to deal with, but nature gave us a way to be more "one" with it. Cavemen weren't running around with Sawyer Mini Filters lol.
      This is very interesting to me.

      Should I make a vid on this? I almost rather give the highlights so people DON'T feel they have to watch.

      @@PracticalPreparedness I guess I feel that if only highlights are given, it kind of takes away from the whole feeling of the movie. It should be watched all the way through. Highlights are good but someone should watch, especially any new prepper. I thought it was very good even though it's an O bummer film. I'm glad you're doing more videos. Thank you for all you do.
