There’s another prepping community here also. There’s a bit of an overlap, sure. I think one is more about just news events, the other actually prepping.

Either way, answer is yes 🤣

Combined with measles fucking up immune systems, the next few years are going to be oh-so-interesting for us here.

Just a matter of time before the world puts a travel advisory on the US, like with other countries with disease outbreaks and terrorist groups.

Noted, and added. Headline was pulled from the URL, I didn’t want to editorialize, but this is a good point.

Huh. Well, that’s a nice feature Reddit doesn’t have. Ability to correct post headlines.

The problem is the orange man with tiny hands has a tiny penis complex, and needs to take it out on the world.

I don’t think people have an issue with the reasoning. The problem is that this is the 3rd or 4th time in, what, 5 weeks, that Trump has threatened tariffs? And we’ve seen the damage that is flooding to the markets.

As an example, we don’t have tariffs on wood right now, but because of the constant back and forth on it, suppliers have just gone ahead and kept their prices high to reflect the uncertainty of future sales. A 2x4, 10’, has nearly doubled since the beginning of February until now, even though tariffs on wood imports never officially happened. Just the constant threats are fucking things up.

🤣

I totally forgot about that sun-bathing of the taint stuff

Yeah, our untainted cow milk may be cut off, but on the upside, we are swimming in the production of bull shit

Do you mod the Reddit intelprepper sub also? Have you reached out to other mods there to take some of the burden off your shoulders?

Don’t we still have the person in charge of higher education with a job for abusing his p card? 😕

You remember VERY correctly. Since then, we’ve brought back at least some PPE manufacturing to be domestic, but it likely won’t be enough for the initial consumer run to empty the shelves and scalp them for $10 a mask.

Just like facts.

Hegseth seen nodding in agreement

one of those better be a new Stargate

Advocate for antivax bullshit that kills people? Sure! Encourage politicians to stop live-saving cancer research, gut the VA, and reduce safety standards that will have more people suffering? Cool beans!

Oh, you don’t like that and want to voice your opinion? GFY

Fucking scary shit. Now, it is simply “liking” content Reddit doesn’t like. Soon, it will be upvoting things that the government doesn’t want you to see, or paints them in a bad light.

Wonder if we can convince the mods there to put in a sticky post their respective lemmy community?

I kept the same username as there, just to keep things sort of similar for regulars who recognize each other.
