Worst Case Scenario: Slow Societal Collapse Without A Purge
Popular media is full of post-Apocalyptic shows. Walking Dead, The Last of Us, Earth Abides, etc. The same with movies showing Apocalyptic events where a disaster happens and everything collapses and billions are killed right away. The story is always about the small band of survivors.
In both cases there are two constants: It happens fast and there are few survivors.
But the reality is that the far more likely real-world scenario is much, much worse and horrible. And actually occurring now as I write this. What I fear is a slow societal collapse.
Where things slowly crumble. Where there is not one defining event, but a series that we notice but don’t acknowledge. We’re already past a number of negative milestones and people are still claiming ignorance.
I cover this topic near the end of The Green Beret Preparation and Survival Guide, but wanted to highlight some aspects of it so you can see what’s happening and going to happen.
Here are immediate signs of collapse (days, weeks away):
The emergency or disaster is something that is approaching you and can’t be stopped.
The rule of law has completely broken down and now your home is a target and you cannot adequately defend it
