>>5454182>what they need to acquire for their own survivalDipshits with IQs of 85 have survived just fine and lived long, happy lives without ever even considering purchasing any of that stuff. Your obsession is a hobby, not survival. The likelihood of any of the situations in which that gear would be useful coming about is almost zero, but there are situations that are guaranteed to come about in your everyday life in which that money would have been useful.
If you think any of this was a practical purchase you're autistic, if you bought this stuff because you think that it's cool and you like it, than that's just fine, but in that case it isn't about survival.
>>5454215>survival tactics I would caution strongly anyone that overthinks disaster preparedness or shtf sort of scenarios. They are by their nature incredibly unlikely and because of that the prepper hobby is a huge waste of money that starts out as a fun exercise and turns into an antisocial obsession. Prepping is a fun exercise in autism, but actual 'survival' requires that you
>work so you can afford cost of living>have social skills >reproduce>don't kill yourselfThis is how most people try to get through life and they're fairly successful with just that. Spending money on basically unnecessary things to 'survive' is dumb when that money should be spent to thrive. Spending vast sums on crap to protect your life when you could go do something that makes life worth living for that same thousands of dollars is dumb.
