First, I am merely an “enlightened amateur”. Please vet & check on your own. Caveat emptor. Consider these to be priming the pump for your own investigations.
Second, I fear spicy time is very close, but even a month of food, water, etc., puts you well ahead of most of the sheeple. IMHO, set your minimum sights on a three-month period.
Third, two things will be critical for having the best chance of making it through:
- Mentality: first and foremost in survival is having a flexible mentality and cultivating the ability to adapt. Vanity has no place in survival.
- Develop a meatspace network of people that are likeminded: cultivate your community ties and build alliances with neighbors (note: don’t babble about the Jab or globalists or depopulation, or start pointing political fingers when doing this)… and remember, the first rule of PREP CLUB is that there is no prep club.
And please follow both me, Nitzakhon, on Gab… as well as my blog host Granite Grok and also on Telegram Tommy Robinson Official plus his Urban Scoop site. And don’t forget my posts sometimes get cloned on American Reveille as well.

And they’ll drug you into compliance. From there, it’s not such a far step from thinking yourself superior in every way, to seeing those you despise marked down as irredeemable, and then not even human at all.

“And how we burned in the camps later, thinking: What would things have been like if every security operative, when he went out at night to make an arrest, had been uncertain whether he would return alive and had to say good-bye to his family? Or if, during periods of mass arrests, as for example in Leningrad, when they arrested a quarter of the entire city, people had not simply sat there in their lairs, paling with terror at every bang of the downstairs door and at every step on the staircase, but had understood they had nothing left to lose and had boldly set up in the downstairs hall an ambush of half a dozen people with axes, hammers, pokers, or whatever else was at hand? After all, you knew ahead of time that those bluecaps were out at night for no good purpose. And you could be sure ahead of time that you’d be cracking the skull of a cutthroat.”
-Aleksandr I. Solzhenitsyn , The Gulag Archipelago 1918–1956
When you realize you have nothing left to lose. Or, perhaps, the thing you still have left is your freedom. And while I’m certainly not advocating violence, or recommending a specific course of action, when the politicians who give the orders to implement tyranny are smacked hard by the fact that there are people who can hit a few-inches circle reliably from a few hundred yards away. I fear the avalanche is starting. I don’t want that, no sane person does, and I pray every day that things don’t go spicy. But if it does, remember this:
Live free or die. Death is not the worst of evils.

Short of years and untold wealth, you cannot possibly be fully prepared for everything (I have to keep reminding myself of that). But even some preparations, ideally at least 90 days of food, water / water purification, etc., puts you head and shoulders in front of the vast majority of the sheeple who will be in jaw-gaping astonishment when the SHTF. The only relevant questions are:
- When does it start?
- How bad will it get?
- How long will it last?
- What will the aftermath look like?

“To destabilise this dirty western society? It’s not difficult: you just have to destabilise the woman. Women are the keystone of any society. All you have to do is take the woman out of her temple: the house, the family, which can only stand on its own feet because of the woman. She must be persuaded that she is exploited and debased. She must be uncoupled. She must be trivialised, she must be taken away from the teaching and education of her children, who then become easy prey for vice and the worst utopias. And there will be a crisis of morality! She must be thrown into the labour market in bulk, which will lower the price of labour and lead to unemployment and economic crisis, thus disorder and ruin of society”
– Henri Vincenot, L’oeuvre de chair, 1984

BREAKING: Fed Gauge on Inflation Jumps 6.8% from Last Year – Highest in 40 Years
I have to see if I can pre-buy a winter’s worth of oil (I should be able to). At today’s prices. Painful, but all signs are pointing to more inflation and higher fuel prices… if not outright shortages and unavailability. Yes there’s a risk prices could fall and I’d lose on that score. But consider the risks vs. rewards: a loss of some money vs. being unable to heat my home at all.

Wrap-up commentary if I am moved to do so:
If this were, somehow, achievable without bloodshed I’d strongly consider it. I do see, however, several issues with this concept.
First, from a practical standpoint… how? Again I know, realistically, I’d have to move. And I’m OK with that. (Wife wouldn’t be but that’s another matter entirely.) But logistically, you’d have to have untold millions moving from one part of the country to another. India, in 1947 when it split into India and Pakistan, had roughly 400 million people. It was NOT violence free, and anger still simmers a lifetime later from what I hear.
Second, remember that Communism, like Islam, is an expansionary & aggressive religion. They would look across whatever border existed and not see people but merely territories to conquer and minds to enslave. Even if a separation could be achieved, missionaries that they are, they’d infiltrate. They’d immigrate in under false pretenses. And years down the road we’d be faced with the same crisis we have now, except we’d be in 1/2 the country we have now.
No. It ends, either in victory or defeat. Prepare yourself.
