Re: Are people oblivious to the collapse we are about to face?
I don't think so. Most people I talk to are in shell shock with the price of everything.

My husband and I have cut back significantly. We have no choice. Home repairs popped up, our son needed some money to get by, etc. We ate out for the first time in months and only because we had a gift certificate - which didn't cover 2 burgers, fries and a beer. A splurge for us is to drive somewhere nice, go for a hike and have a picnic with sandwiches I've prepared from home. Even that is scaled back due to the cost of gas. We saved for retirement but the market is shite and who knows what it will look like next year.
 Quoting: ElleMira


My good friend, who has three younger children, is panicked. The cost to heat his home this winter has him terrified. Not to mention all other inflated prices, food, gas and forget cars. Not good.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 79451138


I hear you. I know so many people that are going through heavy stuff right now. I don't even like to complain about my bs because compared to many, it's so trivial what I'm dealing with.

Slavery is the product of currency.

Creating money out of a promise for future labor is enslavement. and every central bank on earth participates in it- the collateral on the loans being the governments, resources, and laborers. This is a global human livestock plantation.

There is no such thing as money, only debt instruments. Fiat currency. Slave notes printed on the promise of perpetual labor obligations.

Wealth is in the ownership of resources, including human resources.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 82758968


There has always been real money or a trade unit it began long ago. There was no tax on gold or silver this was a real-use instrument they made things out of gold and silver so it was a real wage, which was stolen but an illegal action by FDR, I don't care about his setup Supreme Court said it was constitution because it is clearly said it is not constitutional. This wage did not belong to the Government this is the part you need to understand it was a wage for work and your agreement was for wages in gold or silver and it did not belong to the gov at all, they had no rights to this gold it belongs to the ones they stole it from or their descendants. The only time taxes were allowed on wages is if the country was at war on the homeland, only for two years, that time given. The reason FDR did this was the bankers, and they were getting the response they expected from the people who still used the gold and silver to pay their employees and the employees kept their gold and silver.

This was highway robbery in high places and arresting people if they did not turn it in, understand that is forcing people to do something unconstitutional, this was the force and it was stolen which makes the robbers, but the federal reserve note was pushed in but the citizens lost their wealth because they traded or was forced to use a bad note that crashed during the depression, yet it was during the depression caused by the policies of the Federal Reserve bank and it was on purposes, not an accident, the Republican was in and they was almost clear of the debt to the federal reserve bank.
They laid the depression on the Republicans but this was not the Republicans it was the propaganda that got the democrat back in before the Republicans could dismantle the Federal Reserve. Now you know who was behind the corrupt voting in 2020, something they want Trump out for, they had already checked the gold in the vaults if you missed it, the gold and silver were in Fort Knox. This money belongs to the people in this country no one else.
Sorry I got a headache

How awesome would be to find a woman like this woman then force her to be a slave while also taking her preps? She could make you bread out of acorns. 99.9% of women are worthless but she is valuable enough to to give her slave rations while also deserving of a strong male protector. This is actually a huge compliment to this woman that I would keep her alive and protect her.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 79062454


A woman like that is likely to bide her time and find a way to take you out. It just takes a monent in time. One second, 2 at the most. You may lock her up while you're sleeping but you will need eyes all around your head every moment you are in proximity to each other.I hope in such a scenario, someone does put you down, like a parasitic psychotic cockroach that you are, deserves.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 83840980


I agree she is nuts and is a wild card but I would fuck the crazy out of her. If she took me out all she would have left is her acorn bread. She is smarter than that.

No a lot of us have been there heard that before and most of the time predictions do not pan out. The only difference is its new knowledge for some. The end has been supposing to happen in 2 more weeks, then 2 more weeks, then this date, then that date. The only thing that has really changed is your awareness of a low probability event. Take a breath, the sun will come up tomorrow same as yesterday.

I think with a full scale collapse like we have never seen before in modern recorded history would wipe out most of the Population within the 1st few months from starvation disease and violence,…etc. the roving marauders and looters would be downsized greatly and much weaker by the 2nd quarter 4-6 month time frame imho. People will have to eventually cooperate to rebuild a semblance of a society if we went full Mad-Max in a collapse. I don’t under estimate what people that are desperate will do,…

 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 79208221



I'm not condemning anyone. It's not the elites, me, govt, celebrities, etc destroying the lives of the masses. It's. . Are you ready? The fucking masses! Nobody wants to kill them they willingly buy poison to eat, indebted themselves, kill and hurt eachother

All people like us are doing is standing on the side of nature. We care more about the planet than the sheeple who is willingly committing Mass genocide collectively THEMSELVES.

Im fact the only reason the system hasn't fall completely yet is because we are giving you extra time! If we don't do it this way you can expect the sheeple to kill eachother brutality like the dark ages.

But you know how we keep you from dying sooner? We keep you addicted to your desires so that you won't act it out on others.

We give you entertainment, music, porn, nice homes, shoes, cars, etc etc etc

All to keep you from hurting others and the planet. It works. But wait till it all ends and you have to withdraw from your addictions. You will think you're in hell.

Give up your current addictions now if you think I am wrong. Show your true nature without all the comfort that WE give you.

You will either go into a depression, unhappy, miserable to a point you will probably act out ur sickest desires. And we can't have that so we got you in shackles.

Tell you what.. if you can drop all your addictions and try to live according to nature. I offer you or anyone else reading this to come to the other side. Join us but show us first you can be good men without the benefits of society what has been given to you.

The choice is yours.

Sheeple or Freedom from your slavery. You show me you desire freedom with a burning desire then I will send you a key to the great reset how you or anyone interested can turn a simple $100 into life changing money by getting in the very beginning of the new monetary system being developed that every bank is currently moving their assets into as a safety storage that will skyrocket ones the paper dollar goes to 0.

Re: Are people oblivious to the collapse we are about to face?
All around, it seems people continue to spend spend spend as if everything is normal. Are people not running out of money? I sure as hell am, and have been pinching pennies for months. Is it just my perception, and I am only noticing the wealthy out there? The last week I have this impending sense of deep economic despair is about to strike, the likes of which has never been seen before. I do not think it will be comparable to anything we have seen in the past since society is now so dependent on the digital economy. When things collapse it will be epic and there will be no safety net as the vast majority of people are so disconnected from self sustainability. And, I do not think those who have skills and the resources to be self sustaining will fare that well as the hungry hordes will seek them out.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 76046256


It is called a real recession. Kind of like in the 70's and 80's, not like the recent ones where ultra-low interest rates were used to paper things over. Everyone survived then, most everyone will survive now. Just hard-times, most you have never seen what that really is.

The rest of your hypothesis is just silly fear mongering.

I am in a position where things get tight sometimes, but we do alright.

I didn't know how to pressure can, I took a class. I don't know about the foraging locally from weeds (I moved as an adult) I read books. We're preparing by obtaining knowledge in gaps we had.

Taking steps to eat with as little waste as possible will either get me through a collapse...or it will pay off the few debts I do have. I make clothes, it is both using a resource I have (fabric) and entertainment but I have clothes at the end of it I am not spending more money on.

I'm not going to worry about what will come, or not come. I refuse to live in fear. I'll be okay end of whatever road we're on, but I'm not going to be afraid of the trip.

It's hard to imagine an actual oblivious society, but it's possible a separate group can be ID'd as such.

American life is filled with hurrying: to help the baby, to feed them breakfast, to start a load of wash, to drop off baby, to get to work, to pick up child, to grab a few things at the grocery store, to cook supper, to transfer the laundry. to walk the dog,...

Our lives are scheduled for every minute. In order to understand what is going on, it's necessary to have time to think, first about small, quick observations; then to read; study/research/confirm. Who's got the time?

A vague awareness is the most common state of mind is how I vote. Too much uncertainty for most to be sure however.

Re: Are people oblivious to the collapse we are about to face?
i have all my bills paid and no credit card debt. This has caused me to not have to pay all this interest rate that a lot of people have now. if you have to pay $100 in interest a month, theres a lot of other things we could do with that money, rather than just let the credit card company have it.

The best way to survive is to pay that debt off as quick as possible. Look up "snowball" way of paying down your debt. it is mentally better than "paying the highest interest down first".

I am hearing on the news that people are having to decide whether to pay the electric bill or buy groceries or medicine. i dont have that. i dont know why people cannot do all of them, why they have to choose? maybe they dont make much money or they waste money on interest or maybe they need to stop buying stuff.

i am going to just deal with it as it comes and not fret. worrying wont help.
