Love the photos on the home page of your website, by the way! Simple yet detailed, really lovely. But as for being photographed myself - no, I don't think so.
Journalists and researchers only seem to be interested in apocalypse/end times/survivalism. I'm not that, and we're not that. I've just had this very conversation this week, about millenarianism, with a researcher. Toilet paper, first aid, fruit and veg from the garden, foraging, safety while travelling - that's us.miguelb wrote:I am sure that this forum is not made up of extremists as I can see in other threads that the members are very cautious with political comment. I can tell you that I also tried to contact preppers in German forums and what I saw there was the same: People like you and me living a normal life, just trying to be prepared for whatever - like having enough toilet paper in the house . But I had a lot of problems meeting people because of questionable reports on the prepping community in German media. Preppers were labeled as conspiracists or right-wing extremists.
What I would like to ask you is, do you think of prepping as a "scene", as a way of living or is it more a particular mindset?
Also, what are the scenarios you are preparing for?
I will sure have a look at other threads in this forum to find some answers, but I would be happy if someone is willing to reply directly
