Had a lunch time conversation about hunting which evolved to preppers which evolved to whatcha gonna do when the zombies come for you/end times etc.
I decided that I will start a new survivalist philosophy called Donnerism. Learn to love your neighbor in ways you have never previously considered. We will be the ones to fear...

They lived together, believed in the same things, had the same language, same problems, etc. Same ethnic, religious, geographic ties. And so on.. We still have tribes now, but the individuals in these tribes might be separated geographically by vast differences. We also have the media, which is a megaphone for issues important to the tribes - well at least the biggest two, everything else is marginalized and discredited and looked down upon. It gets even worse once you're on the internet. Critical thinking is gone. Fact checking is too time consuming for the masses. Facts themselves are too easy to hide or distort. There is as much disinformation as there is information, and its intentional to continue to perpetuate the system. I just want a small island with a temperate climate to raise my mini-tribe. The rest of you can fuck off ;) Native American Indians did it right, mostly. I wouldn't mind going back to that at this point. Enjoying nature. Enjoying family. Spending quality time. The only work to do is the work that has to get done. I'll figure out spears, I'm okay with bows and good with fire. No more rat race, no twitter, no CNN/fox, just kicking it with my fam enjoying flying through the cosmos as insane speeds on this ball of space dust.

We tailor our social media by liking posts we agree with, and unfriending (or at least muting) posters of contrary material. We create our own personal worlds of yes-people and intelligence no longer becomes necessary. Our handicapped minds are no longer required to hold two conflicting ideas for the sake of critical thought. All this has devolved a once-functional society filled with different people who recognized the value of compromise into a self-centric, personalized hegemony of detached resonating chambers. > > > > Guys I’m not even fully caffeinated this morning why am I even writing this… > > > > Chris Wright > > Network Administrator > > > > From: Af [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of That One Guy /sarcasm > Sent: Sunday, October 16, 2016 9:21 PM > To: [email protected] > Subject: [AFMUG] Ot but common > > > > Can we all still be friends after this shitshow? Pleeeeeeeaase? Even if we can't be friends will you folks at least still offset my incompetence? -- If you only see yourself as part of the team but you don't see your team as part of yourself you have already failed as part of the team.
