What are some reasons that some people Look forward to the SHTF or TEOTWAWKI...???
For example: There may be some who feel unfairly repressed.
Please do not vote: I am wondering what are some reasons some people look forward to TSHTF.

i don't think they look forward to it but just are confident that they are completely ready for it and express it and since we cannot see each others face it would seem like we want it to happen but most all ready for it which is why they seem like they are looking forward to it WOW really long
Sorry guess I'm kind of ignorant...what do those letters stand for??
One thing I agree with : Please do not vote: I am wondering what are some reasons some people look forward to TSHTF.
Don't Vote! Don't complaine! Don't want to hear how bad you think it is or will get! Just keep your mouth closed and go away!

WTSHTF= when the s**t hits the fan:D
TEOTWAWKI ... The End Of The World As We Know It
For a better understanding of the terms and letters used see my Blog: "Wolf-Pack Definition Index".:cool:Quote:

Maybe they have trouble getting along with other people in general and if this should happen then it's solved. I think it represents a deeper, phsycological issue.(did you read that, Remy?) Maybe it's the "last man standing", or "King of the World", or they want to re-build civilization so it will reflect their way of thinking. Maybe they just want to get away from the IRS.:eek: Maybe they want a bigger piece of the pie. I don't think that there's just one answer to this whole mind-set. My thinking along these lines leads me to believe that it would be total anarchy & Chaos. Not at all like the "Apocolyptical Warrior wanna-bes" are hoping and believing will happen. Remember, anybody can stop a bullet, not just those who think they'll be the ones left here when it's all over.:cool:
You did not awnser the question..
I could go either way. I have a place I will move to and can by both air and sea. So I really don't need the e-way. I could care less for technolgy and would not mind turning the clock back a couple hundered years.
REMY----Thank you, that helps.
REMY, Would you consider also copying that post to The BLOG section...?????
I could see people wanting it for two reasons.
1. You've done all this preparing, you want to see if it'll work. Kinda like being all dressed up with no where to go.
2. You feel as if you could lead people and or be seen as a leader because of your knowledge and abilities and seek some adversity to let those abilities shine through.
This strikes home as any one who practices a craft for an extended amount of time and want to test their skills
I think that is one of the reasons politicians find reasons to go to war on occasion, test their people against real world scenario
I find that the subconscious doesn't know the difference between practice and reality
So, it works well to continually push oneself, striving for perfection
In the back of your mind hoping the inevitable will happen, while in the forefront not wanting it to happen because your cushy life will end and things will be permanent... :)
Not the least bit interested in seeing TSHTF, but I fear it will. My job(s) require me to deal with small amounts of chaos and try to turn them into order. It is bad enough. Seeing that multiplied by any factor is not a pleasant thought.
IMO, it's not a matter of "if" it's going to end, it's a matter of "when" it's going to end.
The way we continue to "sell" this country away is going to cause a collapse.
So many people are so da*n gung-ho to make the world a "global" community, that America will become non-existent! It's not getting better, it's getting worse.
And make no mistake about it, there will be another terrorist attack on U.S. soil. That too, is not a matter of "if" it's a matter of "when"!
Those of us that are prepared will be better off than those whom are not! Practice and preparation are not for nothing. . .they are for everything! Unless of course there is a nuclear attack or blast. Then it's a mater of WGAS!! :eek:
Typically in history, a power will only last on average about 200 years
It seems about the time we hit the 200 mark, things really started taking a downward turn
As much as some don't want to admit it
It will be from with in due to socialism
Socialism is a natural occurrence when a country stays to rich for to long
The hunger of self reliance melts away to indifference and expected unearned benefits (welfare mentality)
When I was younger I thought it would have been fun . But I am retired and old now , the body is almost used up , and the rocking chair is looking pretty good now , so no way would I want it to happen !! But it is gone to ,and the younger man and woman are the ones that will have to live up to it or... down as the case may be
WOW how armegedon is this thread! I personaly think that to be prepared for survival is important, when the shtf is a diffrent scenario all together because one is being in the wild and somthin goes wrong and the other when somthin goes wrong just a litle to close to home. Im actualy more prepared for problems at home then in the wild. This is cause i have a supply of food at my house and BOBs for all family members. If this happens it would suck. I do not want tsthtf Is what im saying but if it does im prepared( more so then the majority of the world).
Wishing don't have anything to do with it, if and when it happens we will have to deal with it the best we can, whether we are ready or not. So enjoy the learning of the life style now and ease the transition or adapt the hard way, makes no never mind when it comes.
When folks feel they have no control over their environment, they want to blame someone else. That's a whole lot easier than taking responsibility for their circumstance and doing something about it. My theory (for what its worth) is there are three types of people in this world. 1. The very small minority who can do nothing about their circumstance (on life support for example). 2. The very small minority that will rise above no matter what obstacle they face. 3. The overwhelming vast majority in the middle that want to b**ch about how bad life is but do nothing about it. Point the finger and proclaim someone else a witch. "That's why my life sucks, it's their fault" mentality and I don't buy into it. They seem to want TSHTF or TEOTWAWKI so other people or the government will end dominion over them. But it won't change and they don't understand that. It will continue after something happens because they won't change. It will only change who they call a witch.
Change is inevitable but it doesn't have to be some uncontrolled catastrophic event. And governments transition and change and grow. We should be able to adapt (just like we do with the weather in the bush) to those inevitable changes.
As to the world community, it's just a natural extension for man. We traded between clans, tribes, cities, then states and now countries. Who knows, we may someday live under a single government. And I can't proclaim that good or bad. It will be what we make of it.
Trained in martial arts because I didn't want to fight....
Been doing the wilderness thing all my life, so if I'm not trained by now I never will be. I'm always learning more though.
TSHTF...I hope I'm ready, I think I am. Do I want it to happen? Nope.
I proclaim that one government or many governments are all a waste of my time and money.
This is perfect, and I believe this has been one of mans down falls (only seeing the ills of the world and striving for what the Jones have)Quote:
A 'Garden of Eden' environment and existance where everything was 'provided' for us in a state of bliss. Now that we have to deal with the weeds that surround us
It’s really only perception of ones surroundings
If you want to see beauty, you will see it
If you want to see disease, then that’s all you'll see
"withdrawing into artificial wombs"...well said, remy.
Heeeeeeeeeeeelllllllllllllllllllllll NO!
Maybe in my dreams. NOT! Reminds me of the Jarheads who really wanted to go kill people...young and stupid. Who wants to kill people? Who wants the Sheot to hit the fan? Only those who think too much of themselves.
People gonna die, your family members may die, your friends may die, YOU may die.
To dream of such nonsense is childish.
To prepare for such nonsense is smart.
Yep, that's why we're buddies, buddy!Quote:

i thought it would help a lot of people, on the whole, when i was younger. i was right a little, but forgot about the far greater numbers who would suffer. people would still fall into abuse and exploitative situations, some would still feel the need to take whatever they want from their community, etc.
I think there are those who genuinely hope that the SHTF, so they can live out their fantasies of being survivalists. Just like there are people (I know some personally) who get their CCP in the secret hope that one day they'll be 'forced' to defend themselves. And the ones who were genuinely disappointed that nothing major happened on 12/31/1999.
I also suspect that if the S ever really does HTF, those types won't last 5 minutes.
