Survival Sunday - Sunday PREP Edition - Granite Grok

Survival Sunday – Sunday PREP Edition

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.  I know this is a long post; I am attempting to put out a lot of information as a resource.  Read or skip sections depending on your interests.

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:

  1. Mentality: first and foremost in survival is having a flexible mentality and cultivating the ability to adapt. Vanity has no place in survival.
  2. 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 posts sometimes get cloned on American Reveille as well, which is a good site to check out in general.

FYI, here’s a link to the last Survival Sunday:

I suspect it’s not a 100% correlation, but I’d suspect there are strong correlations with a certain demographic, with fatherless kids, with population density, with amounts of fedgov support… and these are not independent variables, but confounded.  Deliberately.  Remember LBJ’s infamous quote:

“I’ll have them n*ggers voting Democratic for the next two hundred years. [Said to two governors regarding the Civil Rights Act of 1964, according to then-Air Force One steward Robert MacMillan]”

― Lyndon B. Johnson

They plan nothing good.  Remember this hero’s risks and prophecy:

When we think about what could go wrong in a survival situation, we always tend to think about gear and equipment first. But, as I have learnt, sometimes it’s basic common sense that could cause your downfall.

Stick to the basics. Don’t think you can outwit the common sense advice that all children are taught as the basic rules of camping and hiking.

Amazing discussion.  It is just a delight to see two people, intelligent and knowledgeable people, talking.  My only regret was not being in on it.  And I was fascinated that part of it was clipped because of youtube’s censorship.

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:

  1. When does it start?
  2. How bad will it get?
  3. How long will it last?
  4. What will the aftermath look like?

“A Created Global Food Crisis”

Notice, too, how those who are trying to prepare for what’s so clearly coming down the pike at us are already being vilified as “hoarders” and “black marketeers”.  Never mind that it’s a matter of simple, basic responsibility to prepare to feed one’s family during hard times:  that’s now an indicator that one is being anti-social, selfish and mean-spirited.  Those who’ve seen the writing on the wall and are preparing for what it predicts know better, of course.

Having THE talk with the kids

I was at the gun store a month or three ago looking at a new acquisition.  I was holding it up in firing position when my son said “Dad, don’t forget, never put your finger on the trigger until you’re ready to fire”.  The salesclerk looked at him and asked How old is he?

I just smiled!

If the footage is as horrific as the chief indicates, then most of us are going to be on the same side when we see it for themselves. The collective outrage and grief over Tyre Nichols’ death could actually be a unifying moment for much of the country… at least outside of those who’ll exploit his death as an excuse to try to burn it all down.

But they’ll use it to divide us.

Concluding thoughts if I’m moved to comment:

Gas bags: Progressive war on your stove is VERY REAL – HotAir

Billionaires and your natural gas stove | Watts Up With That?

As I’ve posted in meme posts, etc., the real reason is simple: independence.  If your ability to cook is purely electric, then you can be turned off – and turned off remotely.

Do not doubt that this was planned years ago.  The entire multi-axis assault we’re seeing now was IMHO conceived and outlined before even the hints of the technologies existed to create & implement them existed.

This meets, in my book, the definition of a missionary.  Without knowing how they’ll get there to convert the world, they nonetheless set off without hesitation or doubt, committing all their resources to that goal, and persisting inter-generationally in its pursuit.

This is a religious war.  A war to the knife, to make you a Communist.  Or dead.

Please check out my meme collections; last one here.  Mockery, ridicule, and the wrapping of uncomfortable truths inside humor can penetrate the cognitive shields of normies far more effectively – IMHO – than dry facts and figures.
