>>366088The word prepper gets used for someone who is a crazy batshit insane tinfoil alien invasion is coming person when they really just should be called "Crazy".
Meaning they are basically obsessed with the topic and have no interest besides prepping, because their life is so freaking empty that they are wishing for it to end or something.
IMO the definition of a prepper is :"a person that aquires tools and skills specifically because they want to be more self sustainable in case of future events"
Quite similar to the bushcrafter who just does it because he enjoys the lifestyle in itself
So yes, you are a prepper, on a level, because you are prepping. You just most likely are not batshit insane, that's all.
