  • The collapse of society is coming. It’s inevitable. That is at least if you’ve read all the headlines about climate change, war, insurrection, nuclear tensions, the dying oceans, falling sperm counts. It’s a lot to handle. Zeke Spector travels to the Ozarks to meet with a religious community of doomsday preppers to see what it takes not to be afraid of the world.

      That is true to an extent as the further away you are from a military base during a SHTF situation the less likely you are to receive any form of help. The trade off for that help is effectively marshal law as the military which needs resources as well will move out into the surrounding areas to control said resources. And will provide security on a broader scale but still you would be giving up many freedoms for that security.
      The reality is that the military represents at most 1% of the population. Law enforcement will also try to maintain some level of security but it would be very localized. So yeah the government can't protect you as an individual and won't bother to try.

    I liked the quote "I'm not living for doomsday, I'm living for Tuesday." I think it's a much more positive outlook. Doomsday preppers are always seeming represented as these crazed loons who wish for armageddon and hate society and all that it stands for, but clearly, that is not true. They are just prepared and don't want to be caught out in the open with their pants down. I can respect that. I think when they start disassociating from society, hauled up in some bunker, thinking crazy thoughts, and being a shut-in, that is when it turns unhealthy. This approach however is a good one.

    I live in the Ozarks and outside of any city/town 10k>, basically everyone is a "prepper" as a matter of a way of life because living off the land is what we do and we generally enjoy it. We don;t look at ourselves as "preppers" per se. Just like alot of big city folks can't fathom why anyone would want to live this lifestyle, we can't fathom why anyone would want to live in a big city (but alot could live in a big city if we wanted to tomorrow, but i don't think you could say the same thing about the opposite). And although we like to think of ourselves as independent, the fact is we have to rely on those around us sometimes w no "strings attached", so there is a strong sense of community that seems to bind people closer here than say in a large metro area. We all know our neighbors and our neighbor's neighbor like family (even though we don't always get along all the time). If one really wants to see and learn how to be self prepared, just spend some time w the Amish or Native Americans who were taught by their ancestors.

    Actually a prepper running a business that sells survival supplies is a great idea, because at any given time you'll have a massive stock of that kind of supplies. And instead of spending money maintaining and replacing that stock, you're making money rotating it out. The people running the first aid kit supplier have a mutual support agreement with the group selling shelf-stable rations, and with the hand tool suppliers, and with the ammo distributor, etc. That alone, the array of businesses and the social network among them, means very little extra effort in "prepping" required.

    This was by far the best story I think Vice has covered. She'd a little light on some decent people that are sometimes misunderstood. In today's day and age if someone can't relate to being prepared to some level or degree than maybe they should be. These seem like great people in a great community with a positive vibe. They just wanna live their lives by what they think God would want and they don't at all seem like they are out to hurt anyone that's for sure. The more I learn about this community it seems to me they want to help other's. Being a little more self sufficient in times where society is so dependent on the system seems like something we could all use more of. And these people are more than willing to share their knowledge and what works for them. Ofcourse we are all different but I'm grateful there are still people out there that offer advice just because it's the decent thing to do.

Doesn't discount their experiences but of course their conclusions will always be touched by these delusions

Being prepared is first and foremost a mindset. Its not just Special Forces that are turning to being prepared, if you have traveled around the world with an open mind, you will see the value in being prepared.

    Hi Zeke, As you can see from my profile I am an old guy. However looks can be deceiving. I grew up on a small farm in the late 50's and 60's. What is call prepping today was just the way we survived back then. I have recently been following a lot of the prepping shows. In just about all of them there is one thing that everyone is going to need that is missing from those shows. Feel free to private message me on FB and I can share it with you. If it is something you think is worth while you can share it with your subscribers.
