Right, I agree, basically my experience with preppers and libertarians is, the ones disgusted when you ask them if they're "leftist" are the ones with too many guns and not enough neighbors, and vice versa for those who embrace the label or don't care.
- bigfishrunning 7mo agoSo you go around asking people if they're "Leftist"? Why? Either you get a non-answer or you start a fight with somebody for no reason -- what a strange thing to do
- komali2 7mo agoDiscussing philosophy and politics is very normal in the prepper community. I'm not just waking up to strangers and doing it. This is at meetups, dinners, that sort of thing. "Oh you're a libertarian? Is that more Kropotkin or Rothbard?" At the gun range I'm just as likely to see a thin blue lives flag, punisher skull, or "don't tread on me" emblem on a gun or gun case as I am to see a hammer and sickle or trans flag. It's just part of the territory.
