To move forward, to have a future, humanity must acknowledge and account for the dysfunction of the normal. The current state of the world, produced by humanity as a whole, proves the dysfunction of the normal.

In many ways, those who have read Kaczynski, Earth Firsters, and random autonomist eco-terrorists appear better prepared, at least mentally, to survive the current collapse.

This represents a significant faction, one that will only grow over time. A post-doom mindset focused on preempting the reiteration of industrialized civilization would seem formidable.

While various self-proclaimed militias failed to launch their revolutions to protect democracy, they still hold firearms and high paranoia.

National Guard units will be unpredictable. At the very least, their armories will be targets.

After agribusiness collapses, pandemics, geomagnetic excursions, solar flare radiation and electromagnetic pulses, “limited” tactical nuclear warfare, bio-warfare, chemical warfare, and geopolitical consolidation, a lot of real estate goes unoccupied, sometimes for excellent reasons.

It’s noticeably part of everyday life.

How Will You Survive?

Techno-optimists plan on a digital option for survival.

The meat suit is a losing proposition anyway.

Are you willing to bet large on technological salvation?

Or is it back to eating foraged vegetables and roadkill?
