Been hearing that now is the time to start stocking up on a month’s worth of supplies. Is it possible that last year’s TP nonsense was a trial run to see how ridiculous we would become when faced with a bit of hardship?

Makes sense & it likely cause more people to stock up on other essentials.
Sept is Preparedness Month
I doubt it was a trial run. I live in the DC suburbs of VA. In the winter every time they call for snow it gets like that in local stores.
When I first went into a store during the TP nonsense, unaware as I don't really watch news, I was like damn, they calling for snow?
I think it's well known if some adverse event is looming, shit flies of store shelves.
When I was at grocery store during the 'crisis' I was talking to the owner while people complained of no TP on shelves. He said people are buying more than he can get delivered. I yelled out: Do you people have enough food in your house? If you cant feed your family you dont need TP.
I also know someone who works for UPS said 1 house on his route had 10 cases of TP delivered (dont remember how many per case) and next day sign on their front lawn TP for sale.
I've prepped since 2008, I dont panic in the stores.
Get a bidet! Lol splish splash
you can thank the msm for creating that panic.... and the braindead sheeple that gubbled up all the slop the media spewed!
It didnt help you had fuckwhits running around buying up 26' box trucks full of it.
no it is a result of a series of strange events. So COVID first started in China and spread from their to other nearby nations. Those nations including Japan get their toilet paper sourced from China. China restricted trade and closed ports preventing this countries from getting toilet paper. Their citizens new where there products came from and new their would be a short. From there it spread to Australia and they had seen the toilet paper run but they do not source from China and so there was not an actual short for them. Then it spread when COVID hit a country people looked at what the country before them had experienced and ran for the TP. By the time it get to America we had already seen countries starting lockdowns and the TP runs. So people reacted like people.
In all of this fake garbage I think the TP runs is probably the only thing truly on the people for their idiocy.
I think it was just stupid begetting stupid. And then people who really needed TP were noticed by others who felt the fear to stock up and bought their 20th bag.
No, people are just stupid.
I think it was an organic reaction to fear. We see it in Florida every hurricane season, and we saw it up north when snow was coming (bread-milk-eggs alert). But whether we see another crisis or not, it's still a good idea to be stocked up enough to weather a storm, and it's easy to do just picking up a little extra every time you go shopping. I love being able to walk into another room instead of going to the store when I'm out of something.
They want to collapse society to create a global government. They know the vaccine mandate during an already ongoing worker shortage (which they caused with lockdowns and free checks) will cause chaos in the supply chain. If you haven't stocked up months worth of food yet, you need to get started asap. Without workers, supply will thin, and people will start fighting for what they need. Stock up now. Always prepare.
Good advice. Thank you.
It was. First of all, the paper goods isle has the lowest product to cost ratio, in the entire store. You can clear the entire isle for a few hundred bucks. The shortages in TP were immediately connected to looming shortages of other products, including beef and pork.
Koch Industries controls 70% of the TP market, easily manipulating supply chains.
