    I agree, but if it’s WW3 then you’re fucked either way. Prepping is no solution. Do it if you want, tho, either way.

      “Prepping” by stocking up on stuff to rob your neighbors of their stuff = bad

      Harvesting a bit of solar energy if you can afford to is pretty much the opposite of that mentality. I’ve lived/am living through the aftermath of an almost complete collapse here in Lebanon and I can assure you solar power is the only “solution” that doesn’t feel like a complete Faustian bargain. Literally everything else you have to do to live a decent life feels like mortgaging your future for a better shot at reaching it. It’s the most expensive thing we’ve ever done and at least when it comes to domestic electricity I feel like a king

      If its WW3 we’ll be the partisans. You arent prepping to just survive alone. You should be prepping so that if it comes to that we can have a network of resistance that surives as a group and when China crosses the Pacific we’re here to help them.
