    This was advice geared towards people who haven’t prepared. If someone is already prepared then they wouldn’t need advice on what to do. Idk why your acting as if im somehow against organizing because i gave people a quick rundown on how to maybe survive if an unexpected global famine happens and they arent prepared for it.

    A lot of people who are currently just working 60 hours a week going home passing out and repeating aren’t gonna be prepared for when this happens, but if they take a few simple steps like i described their chances of starving to death decrease a lot. Spreading this information to them is not somehow anti-community organizing, and i literally mention how they should seek out community once its safe to do so.

      Yeah and I’m saying it’s bad advice. The thing we all gotta be doing is building community. Individual last minute prepping is actively harmful because it provides a false sense of security.

      I don’t disagree with the premise (prep for famine), but the advice doesn’t match the situation. Its a collective problem & needs to be addressed as such especially to people who currently aren’t involved in community building endeavors.
