For more than a year, I have been working out how to survive nuclear war and the result is that I am now quite convinced that the majority of people would easily survive … and that there are things we can do to help push us from the group that dies to the group that survives. Yes, large numbers will die in a nuclear war, that is a given, but that is very different from everyone will die. That is a lie.
But, having worked out that survival isn’t that difficult, I’ve hit a problem. As a sceptic, I need to check my work, and so I’ve tried to find people who I can discuss the subject with. But, despite finding so called “prepper”, “survival” or “bushcraft” sites, which you would imagine would be delighted to discuss how to survive a nuclear war, the opposite is the truth. Every discussion on surviving WWIII has either been shut down or targetted with doomsayers pushing the lie that death is inevitable.
Why would people do that? Why would sites claiming to be discussion forums for survival … implying a very positive attitude to surviving … repress discussion on how to survive nuclear war? It’s all been very odd and I’ve struggled to explain it!
There seems two most likely reasons:
- People are trying to stop serious preparation for a nuclear war – because they don’t want “other people” (meaning people like me) to survive
- People are trying to stop serious preparation for a nuclear war – because they think preparation will make a war more likely.
Either way, it appears that so called “prepper” sites, aren’t what they claim: they are run by people who don’t want anyone to actually prepare for a nuclear war. To put it simply, the forums claiming to be “prepper” sites are not to encourage preparation, they are intended to stop preparation! That is very easy to do: add a lot of stupid “conspiracy” posts about “the great reset” and that puts off most people who see the sites discussing deliberately created “conspiracy theories” and they think preparation looks idiotic … and if anyone (like me) attempts to have a serious discussion … that then gets repressed, censored or demoralised so that the discussion never goes any where.
At which point, I would like to say “well … it doesn’t actually matter” because a nuclear war is unlikely. However, one of these options (that they don’t want us to survive), seems to imply the existence of a doomsday cult which is actively pushing us toward nuclear war, in an attempt to kill the vast majority of humanity. If so, that would make a nuclear war very much more likely.
At which point I have to do a sense check: can I really believe that there are people who would push something that would kill millions. That sounds utterly crazy, but unfortunately, the truth is that there could be such people, because that is what Net Zero is. Net Zero is a doomsday cult attempting to destroy the entire modern fossil economy upon which billions of people rely to survive.
So, I cannot dismiss the doomsday cult on the basis that people would have to be insane to push it, because they have to be insane to push Net Zero. There are insane people around … so the argument that “you have to be insane to kill billions” … doesn’t mean there aren’t people trying to kill billions.
Why would a doomsday cult want to kill humanity? Because there are people who believe that humanity (meaning everyone else) is a “plague” on the planet destroying all the wildlife. And, it is true that much of the wilderness has been destroyed by human population growth. So, it is possible that there is a cult that thinks the planet cannot be “saved” until almost every single human (except themselves) is killed.
And, there are people who are openly talking of population reduction … a euphemism for mass murder. So, there are already people openly supporting the mass murder of huge numbers of people. It doesn’t take a lot to go from mass murder of large numbers, to mass murder of everyone (but themselves). It is not a scenario that can be easily rejected.
I need to think about this.
Upon reflection: The most obvious explanation is that people running “prepper” sites are eco-nutters who hate the idea of nuclear war. However, that makes it quite possible that they would have bought into the “Great reset” population annihilation cult. I therefore should keep my mind open to the possibility that we are being deliberately manipulated into nuclear war intended to “end humanity” (except the “chosen”). Open to the possibility, doesn’t mean it is happening, or is going to happen … it just means I should double check anything that might indicate whether such a cult is in action.
