This is a dark question. And I am not trying to make it exciting. But when I hear Dr Malone, I feel a sense of validation--yay me, I avoided the vax thus far... but, as I peer into the future with his prognosis for the vaxxed in mind, I sort of feel paralyzed. If 40-60 percent are vaxxed (jabbed, whatever... in their minds they're vaxxed) and if they all have serious medical issues and/or die over the next 5 years, then... whoa.
Hell, even if just 10 percent of our population dies, it will shatter our systems and way of life. So, when do we start thinking about what to do in advance of that.
No debt
Guns and ammo
Food
Land and seeds
Support networks
Etc.
Most cannot do the above list, although many can. We will need new systems. We will have to navigate a dystopian landscape. Are the Anons the community leaders? What can we do to begin preparing for this role?
Just wanted to share this gargantuan question and create discussion. At some point, we will need to find each other...
Leaders will rise...I don't think you can "plan" to be one and I wouldn't want to if I was planning on it.
For me it is about skills and a mindset. In a very real way my whole life up until this point has been a preparation. From sorting my grandmother's spice cabinet at four to learning to cook and can and weld and cut with a torch and fix engines large and small and deal with people and learn who to trust and keep at arms length; how to prune a fruit tree and grow a garden and take care of animals etc.
Come to think of it I probably could be a leader but I will be the first to tell you don't look to me, I am just trying to do my best and take care of my family and live my life.
They can take silver and gold and things away but they can't take knowledge and ability so look to those things as well in your preparation, whatever form it takes.
I don't worry about it as I said but I always add to my skill set and doing it can be fun. I have a grain mill and an oat flaker on order. Going to try some homemade oatmeal and flour with my sons. As I lead them they will pick up skills and memories that they can build on when their challenge comes.
Buy good tools, they're a lifetime investment.
And remember, John Wayne Gacy was popular in prison because he was a former restaurant operator and was reportedly the first cook the inmates ever had who understood spices and flavor and could make prison food palatable. We all have a role to play if the worst case happens. Don't discount yours no matter how small when it does appear. Not saying mine will be big, just that God sees even little things done well, I try to remember that.
I think you're already a leader... by being a role model. Great leaders, in my opinion, don't walk around saying "I'm the leader." They just do... in response to what they perceive. And others follow.
Thank you. I appreciate that.
It reminds me of a story about a Lawnmower repair customer I had. Very hippy occupy Wallstreet former Boeing purchasing guy who liked his bud (weed) and didn't like paying his mortgage (he was in year 3 or 4 of foreclosure during the aftermath of 09) (literally showed me the banners in his garage he made for occupy rather than, idk, getting a job) and as I was fixing his mower for the 2nd or 3rd time that season (he liked to blow belts by running over piles of limbs and dropping the deck to "mulch them") he tells me: "I like you. When we move out west to start our commune we will need people like you who know how to work." Then without an ounce of irony or sarcasm says "I'll be the manager, that's what I'm good at."
Lol. Sure I'll come live in your community where ppl like me do all the work and you tell us why we're doing it wrong. :)
LOL... that's a hilarious story. Sounds like he baked too many cells up top with his bud.
