When Crap hits the fan equipment and survival tips?

[taiyuu_otoko]

All you need is a couple month's worth of food in your basement.

If crap hits the fan, that's how long it will take until everybody's dead.

Then, once everybody's dead, the rat population will swell significantly.

Then you can survive by eating rats.

No need to grow your own food.

SH did hit the fan last 5 years, twice. First obvously was the covid. Then, right after covid, the special military operation. Both times 100% unprepared and both times it didn't matter. I think in big countries like U.S.A. and Russia everything will always going to be great no matter what. It's small countries, like Canada, and European countries, that suffer.

When covid happened, there was an immediate shortage of masks, and then an immidate shortage of sugar. Both bought out by pensioners, I think they still have that stash they bough during the covid, untouched.

Then SMO hit. Everyone was saying we are finished, sanctions going to kill us. But all I've seen was Coca Cola turn into 10 different brand names, and McDonalds rennamed itself into something else. Other than that, everything remained the same.

So I think it's pointless to prepare for anything. Experience dictates everything watched and managed. Let the little guys prepare, they are more prone to small changes affecting them in a big way.

Just an FYI, Canada is the second largest country in the world.

 

[sevbucmash]

second largest

Who cares though. Does it produce aircraft, submarines, space craft, trucks, machinary, tents?

It might be all that size wise, but in terms of producing stuff, it's similar to bahamas.

Yes. These are Canadian owned by there are American companies that operate there as well such as Caterpillar, etc. 10% of Canada’s $2.089 trillion USD GDP is all manufacturing. Canada is the 10th largest economy in the world while Barbados is 150th.

With the war in Iran, Politicians being exposed for Epstein scandals, more catastrophes ahead….how are you guys preparing for the future?

 

[BackInTheGame78]

Watch the Walking Dead. It's essentially a survivor guide with all the "Do's and Dont's" for almost every scenario you could imagine over the course of many seasons.

Most importantly, how your interactions with other people and the relationships built with them are the most important thing of all in those situations.

 

[sevbucmash]

With the war in Iran

You know what it's all about, don't you?

Venezuelan oil. They wanted Iran to close Hormuz and shut down global economy. Suffers Europe and China.

United States and Donald Trump is going to save the world because Venezuela has the largest oil supply on the planet, comparable to saudi arabia.

Also, another twist is Russia. February 20th they offered guess what? "12 trillion dollar mega deal with Russia" That's article from The Economist. They sense changed the title of their post, https://www.economist.com/finance-and-economics/2026/02/17/how-big-is-the-prize-of-reopening-russia

But whatever, because we have it cached.

12 trillion dollar mega deal with Russia pushing Trump to pressure Ukraine, says The Economist

Last year Russia and the United States held talks along two tracks, a peace agreement on Ukraine and the restoration of economic relations between the countries including lifting anti Russian sanctions, notes The Economist

Trump and his circle are primarily concerned not with the return of American companies to Russia. Many niches are already tightly occupied, and even before the conflict US companies no longer felt as comfortable in Russia as before

Trump and his billionaire envoys are attracted by new mega deals estimated at up to 12 trillion dollars in total that could allow Russia and the United States to reshape global commodity markets. The interest of the two countries is mutual, Russia needs investment and the United States needs real projects to implement

Examples of possible mega projects:

— Shale revolution in Western Siberia where oil and gas reserves are comparable to seven years of production in the US Permian Basin, the main shale region in the United States
— The Vostok Oil project led by Rosneft involving the construction of 15 new cities, three airports, and 3500 km of power lines
— Extraction of rare earth metals with reserves estimated at 29 million tons, equivalent to global production over 74 years
— Construction of a unique data processing center with a nuclear power installation
— Construction of a tunnel under the Bering Strait

In Europe there are growing concerns that President Donald Trump may force Ukraine to make irreversible concessions by June, his deadline for concluding peace, for the sake of a mega deal with Russia, emphasizes The Economist

According to The New York Times Russia and the United States are discussing not only and not so much Ukraine, the ceasefire in the Ukrainian conflict is merely a pretext for broader negotiations between the two countries

That's Russia offering United States to drop sanctions in exchange to deals to the sum of $12 trillion. That means what? Russia knew about the operation against Iran and what is about to commence. How come? Because Putin and elites like Dugin are what?



Not only America is occupied, but entire world. Prove me wrong.

how are you guys preparing for the future

From my part there is no preparation for global nuclear conflict. I'm just kind of hopping it will be regional, between Iran and Israel, in that area. With Russia and China not joining in.

My preparation involves understanding that neither Russia nor United States will receive nuclear blows on its soil. I have apartment in Russia and I'm not selling it at least until I become U.S. citizen in 5 years or so. In United States my mother has apartment, which is also mine. I can switch countries like gloves at this point. Though, I'm pretty secure with United States.

I'd advice you staying away from 3rd world like you used to be in. It's going to go up in flames. There is pecking order, and it's U.S.A. and Russia, and China. Europe and Britain are gone. Replaced by migrants.

 

[Bible_Belt]

Replaced by migrants.

We're just getting started. Iran is only 60% Persian. And like all the other national borders drawn by colonial empires long ago, theirs make no sense either. Ethnic groups of each neighboring country are concentrated along the border. They'd all rather join their own people. When/if the regime finally loses control, what we call Iran could split into 5-7 parts that are all at war with each other, end result being a massive outflow of migrants fleeing the conflict.

@Travel memoir21 "there's a social unrest and people/ thugs could possibly be breaking into your homes and trying to rob you of your goods"

Typical day in Memphis

Britain's been "gone" since The Saxons and Angles arrived... The less said about those damned Normands, the better. In The US, navigating relations with non-white migrants who possess a poor grasp of English is remarkably simple:


Ignore them, while they're frying up our dinner or/and scrubbing down the lavatory

 

[Gamisch]

Damn had to triple check the date as this was quite the prophetic post..

Best advice I've heard? Get a passport ready to a destination you believe is safest. Some people talk about New Zealand for example. But in order to actually ne prepared you cannot wait untill" crap hits the fan" ,instead you gotta be ahead of it.

As OP might know, it's NEVER an easy decision to leave your home town let alone country. Bit if the choice is one between life and death...you might wanna live a bit longer innit?

...not entirely tho..lots of countries are actively reversing some policies regarding immigration.

Italy is extreme ( qoute on qoute) as in they wanna implement new laws that prohibit for example religious movements to a higher degree.

Sweden, UK, Belgium Germany, Portugal, Poland ,the Netherlands Czech Republic, Norway all of them are under immense pressure to reverse immigration laws and policies. People in Europe are DROOLING over ICE and demand a similar type of " service " in Europe.

Tbh the world is closing ! Aint too many places you can go to and maintain a high standard of living without compromising your financialand sometimes physicalhealth... The better places IMHO are now the countries that not too long ago were known as typical " 2nd world countries " , while they've silently upgraded. Think...Vietnam, Indonesia, as I mentioned Poland, some African Countries perhaps some S American countries,

The Italys and Spains of this world ain't what they've used to be...even within Europe there are TONS of financial refugees.

Tough one...

It’s a technicality, but Britain isn’t technically a country. The UK is the sovereign country made up of constituent countries: England, Wales, Scotland, and Ireland.

Yeah, from 9/11-the present, we've experienced a monsterous constriction of individual liberty. Freedom of movement has been one of many casualties

I recall one city in Florida from late 90s, back then it was part of bigger city. I remember white Americans living in that city.

Nowadays? Hispanics, Cubans, Venezuelans, Jews, Ukrainians, Pols, Russians, Portuguese, Brazilians. You have to drive north to county line to see white Americans.

Older guy recalled, as he immigrated from Russia to United States, he was a little jewish kid, back then they did not allowed blacks and jews to enter Miami Beach. Now guess what is Miami Beach? All jewish. There are hispanics, and blacks come over to party. Jewish mayor Steven Meiner made laws against essentially blacks, because spring break has become mostly black, prohibiting spring break, and with it blacks from Miami Beach. The circle have closed. There used to be laws that prohibited jews entering Miami Beach, now jews made laws that prohibit blacks entering Miami Beach. Tolerance at its finest. But I regress.

We were talking about populations being replaced. Eh?

Think what is happening in GAZA. There are talks about rebuilding it. We even have computer drawing of the sky line.



Now let's use our heads a little bit. How can a gazan or a palestinian afford a place in an expensive city like pictured above? He can't! That's the idea. You don't genocide all palestinians, because it's a horrible atrocity, world notices. So next best thing is to price them out of their land.

This concept is applicable to what is happening in America. Miami Beach and other cities near by. White Americans got priced out. Sold what they had, and moved elsewhere. Population replaced. Done.
