Doomsday people are crazy to start with! Anyway, something that depends on a lot of electricity (in China!) to keep afloat, is not really doomsday-compatible!

- phkahler 9y ago>> Doomsday people are crazy to start with! Really? I think they're just allocating more resources (both mental and material) to a possible future that most of us think is low probability. There are other ways to fall into the trap than crazy/paranoid ;-)
- michaelbuckbee 9y agoVery few of them seem to have sat down, looked at the risk profiles/probabilities of various scenarios and said "I should start prepping". In most cases they seem like people who are terrified of a few overly specific (low probability) events to the detriment of their health, relationships and community. What concerns me is both that there now seems to be media specifically designed to prey upon these people's fears and then turn around and sell them products to assuage those.
