Communal prepping is about building a new society, not abandoning it.
This society has been rotting and has had multiple holes put in it over the decades. Grab the steering wheel? The engines are already choking with water, people are drowning on the lower decks right now. This is a sinking ship, not one on a collision course. Even if we got rid of the morons steering the ship into the rocks and tearing holes in the hull, it wouldn't change the deeper structural problems that the ship has had since it was built.
Community doesn't have to be small, either. Communities can federate, after all. By your logic, why didn't you stay on Reddit and try to repair the ship before it sunk instead of escaping onto this life raft?
And who said anything about naively ignoring the fascists? Why do you think I said people should learn to shoot guns?
I'm sorry I got caught up arguing a very specific point that you just made. You're already in the raft and I'm trying to fix the ship. Thanks for your help.
