Thirdworldization: The Slow Burning SHTF of America

The developed world, accustomed to safety, convenience, and comfort, is facing a slow-burning SHTF called Thirdworldization by some. Each time humankind faces some tribulation like the one we’re currently going through, it feels like the world is coming to an end. In many senses, the threat is present: a pandemic is a serious SHTF. It IS the end for many.

But the real SHTF isn’t just the pandemic – it’s the effects on the system that Selco warned us about from the very beginning.

The ramifications of such events as Covid-19 and government responses are real and long-lasting. Despite theories surrounding COVID-19 (conspiratorial or not), the fact is real damage has happened to the economy and our lifestyle. To those who say we’ve been through a lot since March 2020, I’d argue we haven’t yet seen the full range of consequences. Objectively, we’re not even out of the pandemic.

The question remains: how and when will this Thirdworldization play out?

I concede this doom-and-gloom talk is growing old and burning out even among preppers. But we’re not talking probabilities: it’s already happening.

We must face reality and accept things are not going back to normal any time soon (if ever). It may indeed get worse before it starts getting better again. It’s past time to stop waiting for Black Swans and pay attention to subtle changes already underway.

It’s been a different SHTF for each country, each business, each family, and each person. On a more broad scale, there’s no way to tell for sure whether it will be a storm, “the” perfect storm,” or something in between. These things unfold slowly – the proverbial frog in the pot (until they catch up). As always, multiple interests and powerful forces are acting simultaneously in different directions, which means lots of possible ramifications.

7 Threats Seniors Face When SHTF (and what to do about it)​

Aug 1, 2024
Seniors citizens must start prepping because they face more risks and dangers after a crisis, disaster, societal collapse, or other SHTF event. They also have unique responsibilities that people in other age groups may not have. I cover 7 unique threats and factors that are unique to senior preppers. Older adults should pay attention to these and note the 3 solutions I offer for addressing each of the 7 threats.

A Failure of Civility: Post Election Preparedness​

With over two decades in the world's hotspots, I've seen firsthand what happens when society breaks down. The upcoming election could be a flashpoint, and you need to be ready. Here's your tactical briefing:

Human Terrain Mapping: Know your AO.
Who are your allies? Your potential threats?
Home Front Assessment: Is your position defensible?
Can you sustain operations?
Health and Fitness: In a crisis, the weak don't survive. Period.
Building a robust support network: You can't go it alone. Cultivate your tribe now.

Here's part 2. **Note: I edited out the vid I had originally posted here due to how long it is. I've now posted a condensed version. If you would prefer the longer version, you can watch it at the link I've provided. This one is a tad on the religious side, but his ideas are good. Reminds me of the gimer known as "numbers."

CONDENSED SURVIVE THE ELECTIONPOCALYPSE - Part 2​

Survive Election Chaos: Find Allies, Spot Trouble, Escape Fast

When elections turn violent, survival isn't just about avoiding crowds—it's about seeing the chaos coming and getting out in time. In this follow-up to "survival mapping," we’re going deeper: how to team up with people who can have your back, spot the early warning signs of impending unrest, and—if it all goes sideways—how to break free from a riot before it traps you. Don’t get caught off guard. Your safety depends on these life-saving strategies.

That's an interesting thought on the face of it.

How do you protect your, uh, assets?

Leave them here? WHERE? A Chase SD box? Or other SD box?

Leave them with your brother-in-law? Yeah, sure.

With a custodial law office? Man, I'd have to really have confidence.

Sell or store to/in a bullion-vaulting company, or a paper exchange? Then you have the typical SHTF problems.

Keep them in the bottom of your boat going to the Bahamas? Good luck with THAT. Good luck taking them ashore, keeping them from getting robbed. The very-first time you sell one coin...your house will be TAKEN APART, and probably with the police watching, ready to take their cut.
