BRACE FOR IMPACT

M2 data was released today — it is down -4.63% since last year, the fastest pace of money supply destruction since January 1933. The Fed eased at 100 mph, now it is slamming on the brakes and credit markets are about to fly through the windshield.

“The” numbers. Figures, & the liars that figure their figures will legit the lies. Well, it has always “worked” before.

Nothing “obtained” via political process is legit. GIGO

And so, “ready for impact” … & so to that advice falls largely upon crash test dummy ears.

Because symbolic wo/man & political wo/man, obverse/reverse, figure most pervasively in the digits-way-beyond-five “discounting” that is pretty much a continuous f/unction of humanimal.

And Flashman, or Hitler, or whoever’s, “capitalism” cannot do the strawbale scapegoat accusation levied by lying figurers against it without state/nation cudgel wielding … which is politics … which is “continuation of war by other means” … which is Pogo, the f’d up Possum, & that pouched creature’s libido dominandi by-the-numbers deathwish.

Poetic possum parallelogram: Racket in the pheasant coop/run got us all out of bed early one morning. Possum had found a way into the coop. It was covered in blood. Had murdered every bird. And itself.

The species that calls itself “people” is stupid. Rhymes “social.” Rhymes eat-preyed upon-loved cannibalism. Rhymes cowardice, sloth, short attention spans & time preferences, mostly. But the other deadly sins are abundant, too.

”And “politically” en-ganged people dement away even more IQ, both kinds – intelligence & integrity.

Politicals are flaming moths & the planet is tinder.

“Legal tinder.”

The document is juicy.

On May 23, 1933, Congressman, Louis Thomas McFadden, brought formal charges against the Board
of Governors of the Federal Reserve Bank system, The Comptroller of the Currency and the Secretary
of United States Treasury for numerous criminal acts, including but not limited to, CONSPIRACY,
FRAUD, UNLAWFUL CONVERSION, and TREASON.

Is this what Hitler was on about ?

“Capitalism is a value-decoding machine. Its objective is to completely decode society of any values that impede the free flows of capital, rendering everything and everyone a de facto commodity, transforming societies into markets. It can adapt to totalitarianism and other varieties of despotism when necessary, but left to its own devices, or … you know, granted dominion over the entire Earth, and every creeping thing that creeps upon it, it sets about decoding and destabilizing values, destabilizing value and meaning itself, until, ultimately, everything means anything, or nothing, or whatever the market determines it means or is worth at any given moment.”
CJ Hopkins : The War On Reality (Revisited)
https://www.zerohedge.com/geopolitical/hopkins-war-reality-revisited

“Hitler’s real quarrel with the capitalist and Marxist system alike was that they stopped things from growing. They were concerned not with creation, but the one making with making the quick profits and the other with establishing an unnatural and sterile uniformity. Both were destroying quality throughout the world – the quality, not only of things, but , of what was far more serious, of men and women”

My neighbor is getting tossed because he can’t pay his rent. I learned of this from my other neighbor; a prostitute that was working hard to lure me into her parlor. A different neighbor just got arrested for meth.

This, all in the last two weeks. In a red county in a red state.

These were mostly respectable neighbors a year ago.

The one good thing about living on the shitty side of the tracks is that my neighbors are the canary in the coal mine.

If you aren’t a prepper yet, you’re a fucking imbecile. Get ready right now. It’s all going to shit.

“You’re prepping in an apartment?”

Why The Fuck Not?!

Sure,a rural homestead much better but not all have that,you can have still a good supply of food/tools of freedom and their food(safe always a good idea)/a good ready to go “Wheels Up” bag ect.

One does the best they can with what they have.

So,no matter where you are at,prep,though prep with your location in mind ect.

And as always,Prepper Cat is with you!

Yep. If you can’t leave then prep where you are. An apartment would be tough to secure tho but its still better than no shelter at all. Keep enough preps on hand to last serval weeks to a month and a ‘wheels up bag’ like you said.

In an apartment the doors aren’t the weak points. The walls are. Someone wants your ‘stuff’ they’ll come thru the walls when they figure out the door isn’t worth the effort. Be nice to have a semiauto shotgun at that point.

Not too hard to secure, if you’re in the upper level of a high rise, because they are made with cement block walls, and have all their windows facing out,
Some plywood to cover up the inside of your door, and 4x4s to brace it should be enough to.secure your apartment from the odd random looter, and as long as you’ve been quiet and stealthy about your prepping, so as to not invite a large group to single you out.

Definitely lots of variables concerning apartments and where you are in one. Upper floors in a cement apartment are going to be more secure, but you too, will have to climb those stairs at some point. The key is like you say, stealth and quietly building your stores preferably just out of reach or interest from marauders. Eventually you will have to venture out into the streets in a city, which again means added risk for everything you do, even getting a few more groceries.

Apartments seem like death traps to me if the infrastructure fails.

No water, no lifts, no sewage, no electricity…..

The higher the density, the higher the risk. Get rural.

Buy a water bed. Good for a while. But ideally cities are no place to weather out storms, they’ll all burn down. But if you are stuck in a city, or apartment, the idea is to prep where you are the best you can. Taking into consideration whats defensible and whats not. How long can you reasonably stay put before having to leave. All important things to ponder.

I agree, you’d probably have to be able to wait it out for at least 90 days, after that most people would be either departed, or the dearly departed.
The problem is that who’s ever left, they would be the baddest of the bad asses, and some.would probably eat you for lunch, literally.
So if you were to step out, you better be stealthy, or get out of Dodge.
Best to wait as long as possible to bug out to allow a thinning of. The herd before bugging out.

I would argue that if someone, someone who knew and practiced OpSec, and who was a prepper and lived in the upper floor of a high rise, that they would be better off than someone in a suburban culdesac.

If you were to slowly and quietly stock up on supplies, and you are prepared to secure your front door, and especially if you have a balcony you’re going to be better off.
Especially if the power went out and wannabe interlopers would have to climb up numerous flights of stairs, for the remote possibility of finding goodies, as opposed going door to door in some suburban neighborhood

Fort up, ignore any interlopers, and wait it out for a few months, sort of like the girl and her guardian, in the first episode of Station 11.

Nowhere in post says apartment, might just be a shitty neighborhood by the tracks.

There’s a bonus in that scenario, the people will always go to better neighborhoods when the shtf or Halloween.

I’ve had zero Halloween people in years, I found out they go to nicer neighborhoods.

If things fall apart, when things fall apart, who’s going to be better prepared to survive, the folks who already have to struggle and thus have the expertise and experience doing so, or the people who don’t?

Talk about BRACE FOR IMPACT…

Have to put up a caveat…Uncle Clif (not my uncle…I’m older than him – but I understand how his engaging chuckle and overpowering – busy – IQ makes many look up and smile)… BUT I digress…High is one of the most Spiritually lost prognosticators of those who are often SECULARLY right I have found to date.

To me he is like a powerful magnet – Right on one side and Stupid deceived repulsive WOO WOO BS LOST on the other.

I pray for him often. Gotta love the guy. Proof an IQ is meaningless in the most important area.

One of the occasional regulars here once made a comment about him and his brother…if you see this…let’s talk?
