In the days before Covid, doomsday preppers were ridiculed and shunned as part of the fringe minority. Now, they’re being celebrated with their own spread in the The Wall Street Journal entitled: “Who Counts as a Disaster Prepper These Days? Lots of Us”.

In the article, the Journal points out that there is a “renewed interest in self-reliance” in stocking for emergencies. The article asks whether it has to do with supply chain shortages and empty grocery shelves.

We can’t help but ask if it could be people want to front load items before additional 10% annual price hikes? Or if it could possibly have anything to do with the fact that we appear to be on the brink of World War 3? They don’t mention in so many words and we…well, we digress.

Living in a bunker throughout some disaster would be an immense challenge … day after day, perhaps isolated with one or two people, would be an immense and psychological obstacle to overcome.’ – Dr Michael Mills

Amidst Russia’s war on Ukraine and a global pandemic continuing to spread; the looming nuclear war and the threats of climate change, all such news are building up to think about how people can protect themselves during world crisis. Individuals self-defense have shifted from the masks, vaccines and Covid isolation to bunkers, prepping for escape plans, looking for emergency fallout shelters and keeping anti-radiation tablets. The demand of bunkers in Europe and the sales in US are soaring as anxiety over Russia-Ukraine conflict continue on the rise.

But is prepping all so easy and is there a downside of being isolated in such bunkers and fallout shelters living entirely off the grid?

To learn more about the doomsday escape plans, how life in bunkers will look like and what behavioural, social and psychological impacts will be living underground, The Review of Religions Science team met with Dr Michael Mills, who is a Lecturer in Criminology in the School of Social Policy, Sociology and Social Research at University of Kent. Michael is a member of the British Society of Criminology, European Society of Criminology, and the British Sociological Association. He is also on the Editorial Board for the Journal of Extreme Anthropology, and has peer-reviewed for several journals in Criminology, American Studies, Anthropology, Sociology and Geography.

Read on for the conversation between Dr Michael Mills and Musa Sattar, Deputy Editor of the Science and Religion Section for The Review of Religions. This interview has been condensed and edited for length.

Food scarcity. Food vouchers. Food riots and flash mobs.

All of that’s coming – and soon, says Texas-based food scientist and “Health Ranger” podcaster Mike Adams, who sees dire events unfolding in America in the short term.

His advice: people need to get prepared now.

“The thing to really watch for is the food inflation,” Adams said.

“My position is we’re going to see food riots in America before the end of this year. We’re going to see flash mobs in grocery stores—especially for meat products.

“Grocery stores are going to respond with increased security and checkpoints. At some point, we’re probably going to see an attempt at price controls and rationing. 

“And not on everything—certain types of things. It’s almost certain that the rationing they will attempt to enforce with a vaccine passport app that becomes a food rationing app,” Adams told The Epoch Times.

Adams is not alone in his predictions of hard times coming to America—and the world.

With food production buckling under the weight of runaway inflation, skyrocketing fuel costs, and fertilizer shortages, much of what’s in store is already “built-in.”
