User ID: 75990568 United States 02/21/2020 12:05 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Question...do you preparers prep for no electricity as well? Quoting: The F Shack Nobody is really specific as to what is going to happen. Let's see someone step up to the plate and list some specifics for this upcoming Armageddon. Not just the generic "be prepared" with disgusting canned food horseshit. I'd like to see a timeline of what exactly is going to happen with the downfall of society as we know it. Two major things we depend on as a modern society are water and electricity. What is the timeline for both of those to come to a half for starters? A month? Two months? I have solar panels from harbor freight, extra vehicle batteries, solar lights, invertors, a lake across the the street, a pond in front yard and a 10,000 gallon swimming pool. Garbage cans also to collect rain water and various filters to filter any water. Not really what I asked. Im curious what scenario you people think is going to cause the water supply and electricity go bye bye? And also a possible timeline for when this will happen? I do think the solar power for electricity is kind of cool. It takes people to keep the taps on and the electricity running, if maintainers die or run, its over. If rumors start running in your town best collect as much fresh water you can out of your taps and fill your bathtubs, etc and only use it for drinking water. Finally a straight fucking answer! Bless you sir! It's amazing how a simple question 99% of people on here can't answer. I find your scenario hard to believe will happen but it at least makes logical sense in conjunction with "being prepared." |

This is a culling of those they consider too stupid, or too useless, to live. Notice the complete silence of the UN?? Deafening. No screaming about human rights. They know the planet is over populated, so a virus, as opposed to more overt means, gives them plausible deniability. Think critically, or you likely will among those who don't survive. most people are still alive on glp so the notion that it kills stupid and useless its categorically false also, not the first event that mods are certain is doom. you guys over react, easily. |

That is the one question that I want answered. I guarantee that someone in the US gov't has that answer right now! HIV proteins in virus so you tell me? Yes, but HIV is a virus [or at least that is what I have been told], so can a virus interact with another virus without being man made? I don't know Viruses are not alive.

How do we not know that the odd strain of the flu in the US wasn't a bio-attack by China? And this is a retaliatory effort.

Those not prepared for other credible catastrophic risks (e.g., loss of power in sustained frigid weather, SHTF scenario, etc.) will have a measurably more likely probability of a bad outcome (e.g, death) than those who were prudent enough to prepare. |
