In this article we are going to discuss a longstanding debate, will preppers survive the apocalypse? Sounds like a fairly superfluous question, right? Think again, sports fans. Believe it or not not all preppers will survive the apocalypse! In this article, we are going to discuss death after doomsday, who’s more likely to survive, who’s more likely to die, and what you can do to better improve your chance for survival.
The reality of post-apocalyptic survival…
I’ve been in the prepper game for a pretty long time now, and let me tell you, brothers and sisters, the prepper community has become a very diverse pool of beliefs. In my travels I’ve seen some pretty interesting things, learning quite a bit about the diverse nature and ideologies that fuel many preppers’ motivations. That being said, I am comfortable in the belief that many of you will die. Why? That’s simple, many of you refuse to accept reality…
People just don’t accept the reality and consequences of life after the apocalypse. Studies in human behavior after disasters has proven we suck at surviving efficiently. When we are faced with extreme stress, loss of food and water, the breakdown of law, and basic services, we as a species get really stupid. As preppers, we think we’re immune to the atrocities of man, but we’re not. All around the world it has been proven in the midst of disaster rape, assault, abuse, and child neglect run ramped.
Which preppers will die?
Tree hugging hippie preppers will be one of the first to die. You know who I’m talking about, the people who think after doomsday the world will be all puppies and sunshine. These are also the gun-grabbing liberals who don’t believe in owning firearms, who don’t have any defense whatsoever other than a few super cool throwing stars, and a medieval mace they bought at a swap meet. For some reason, these guys think since they have a couple years worth of food and water, they’ll be able to survive by staying hidden and passive. Unfortunately, humans will seek out other humans after a disaster. They will seek out any signs of life in flocks, and you will not be able to stay hidden that long. Sooner or later you will be taken advantage of. Seriously there are around 367.9 violent crimes per 100,000 inhabitants every year in this country, what do you think is going to happen in the absence of law?

Delusional tactical ninjas are going to die pretty quickly. How many times have you been around someone who talks a whole lot of talk but when it comes time to nut up or shut up they completely brick. We have those very types of people within the prepper community too. I tend to call them ‘tactical ninjas’ because they sure are good at buying all the gear, looking like a juggernaut loadout from Modern Warfare, but couldn’t hit a watermelon from thirty feet. As we all know these people with inflated egos and no discernible skill will let their delusion take hold only to get their asses handed to them after the shit hits the fan.
Preppers that don’t practice OPSEC have a good probability of dying. We’ve said it a million times and have written countless articles stating the importance of operations security. After managing several groups and pages on Facebook, where I see all the preps, defenses, security measures that people publicly post I’m sure many of you are going to be targeted by the less prepared. You may think the people who follow you on Facebook, or Twitter are your friends, but after the shit hits the fan these ‘friends’ can quickly become enemies. If you take your survival seriously I suggest you stop trying to be Prom Kings and Queens. Keep your preps to yourself and stay safe.
Who’s going to survive?
Luckily a lot of loyal readers of our site (and other similar websites) are going to survive because they understand the importance of defense/offensive/protective measures, water maintenance, food storage and sustainability, and continually train on honing their skills to survive the apocalypse. They stay informed and have a clear understanding of the ”big picture” People who militia up forming interpersonal survival groups who train and prep together will have a far better chance at surviving than most people because they will know how to hit their targets, grow their own food while having a reliable stockpile, and will understand the importance of OPSEC keeping their post-apocalypse plans to themselves. As a highly motivated and trained group of survivalists, we will secure our survival after SHTF.
When medicines will vanish, you’ll need this on your bookshelf.
My grandfather was one of the greatest healers in America, and I spend most of my life using his old remedies. Most of the book is written closely following my grandfather’s life-long plant journal, which he used to treat thousands of people.
The physical book has 300 pages, with 3 colored pictures for every plant and for every medicine. It’s made for common folk with no previous plant knowledge. Especially now that we’ve lost so much of it to history. That’s why in times of crisis, this book will save many American lives.
Steps to better your survival…
Obviously, there are several elements to survival and prepping. There are too many people who rely on the rudimentary elements of survival while ignoring the most life-threatening. Using the information above it’s not hard to figure out the things you need to do to better increase you and your family’s chances for survival, but let’s bullet point it out for you…
- Accept reality
- Prepare to defend yourself
- Improve your marksmanship
- Train for doomsday
- Keep your preps to yourself
Final thoughts…
The reason I wrote this brief article was to express a lot of concerns I’ve had about certain preppers within the community because I am genuinely concerned with their survival. I abhor cruelty in all its forms and it’d emotionally affect me to see cruelty running wild after SHTF. I’ve seen enough of it in my lifetime, and I dread what’s to come, so I genuinely want you all to take stock in this article, either you take your survival seriously or you die…simple as that.
The Most Comprehensive Book Available
Our grandfathers had more knowledge than any of us today and thrived even when modern conveniences were not available. They were able to produce and store their food for long periods of time. All the knowledge our grandfathers had, in one place. Here’s just a glimpse of what you’ll find in the book:
The Lost Ways is a far-reaching book with chapters ranging from simple things like making tasty bark-bread-like people did when there was no food to building a traditional backyard smokehouse… and much, much, much more!
Discover how to survive: Most complete survival tactics, tips, skills and ideas like how to make pemmican, snowshoes, knives, soap, beer, smokehouses, bullets, survival bread, water wheels, herbal poultices, Indian roundhouses, root cellars, primitive navigation, and much more at The Lost Ways
Here’s just a glimpse of what you’ll find in The Lost Ways:
From Ruff Simons, an old west history expert, and former deputy, you’ll learn the techniques and methods used by the wise sheriffs from the frontiers to defend an entire village despite being outnumbered and outgunned by gangs of robbers and bandits, and how you can use their wisdom to defend your home against looters when you’ll be surrounded.
Native American ERIK BAINBRIDGE – who took part in the reconstruction of the native village of Kule Loklo in California, will show you how Native Americans build the subterranean roundhouse, an underground house that today will serve you as a storm shelter, a perfectly camouflaged hideout, or a bunker. It can easily shelter three to four families, so how will you feel if, when all hell breaks loose, you’ll be able to call all your loved ones and offer them guidance and shelter? Besides that, the subterranean roundhouse makes an awesome root cellar where you can keep all your food and water reserves year-round.
From Shannon Azares you’ll learn how sailors from the XVII century preserved water in their ships for months on end, even years and how you can use this method to preserve clean water for your family cost-free.
Mike Searson – who is a Firearm and Old West history expert – will show you what to do when there is no more ammo to be had, how people who wandered the West managed to hunt eight deer with six bullets, and why their supply of ammo never ran out. Remember the panic buying in the first half of 2013? That was nothing compared to what’s going to precede the collapse.
From Susan Morrow, an ex-science teacher and chemist, you’ll master “The Art of Poultice.” She says, “If you really explore the ingredients from which our forefathers made poultices, you’ll be totally surprised by the similarities with modern medicines.” Well…how would you feel in a crisis to be the only one from the group knowing about this lost skill? When there are no more antibiotics, people will turn to you to save their ill children’s lives.
If you liked our video tutorial on how to make Pemmican, then you’ll love this: I will show you how to make another superfood that our troops were using in the Independence war, and even George Washington ate on several occasions. This food never goes bad. And I’m not talking about honey or vinegar. I’m talking about real food! The awesome part is that you can make this food in just 10 minutes and I’m pretty sure that you already have the ingredients in your house right now.
Really, this is all just a peek.
The Lost Ways is a far-reaching book with chapters ranging from simple things like making tasty bark-bread-like people did when there was no food to building a traditional backyard smokehouse… and much, much, much more!
