I mean, if there is a ‘collapse’, what use will there be to stock pile some food/medications? If those are not stolen by raiders (aka other people believing they ought to survive… a side note to those of our American friends who worship the holy gun: no, you won’t own enough bullets to shoot them all). Those stocks they will only last so long, right? Then, what?
It’s even simpler in my very personal situation: I’m alive today thx to constant medications. Stop the inflow of those medications and I will last a couple years at most (dixit the same doctors that have been keeping me running for many years now). And that is in the best conditions, which probably won’t be what we will all be experimenting.
So, I prepare by being fine with knowing things and I will end. Which they will, even without any collapse. And by knowing other things will replace them, with or without that odd human species that once ruled the planet.
On the short term, as my humble way to try reduce the risk of such a sad collapse happening, I do my best to reduce the resources I consume, and by encouraging people (me included) to rediscover there is an alternative path to self-destruction through constant anger and hate against the other(s)… and against oneself.
