I've written about this trend before: the liberal anti-Trump prepper movement. Unhappy with the results of the 2016 presidential election, a certain cohort of Americans have taken up "prepping" for fear a Trump presidency might bring about some kind of apocalypse.
Business Insider has some more information about this new and growing group of folks.
One such group started on Facebook and is called the "Liberal Prepper." Its purpose is to "combine minds and hearts, with an emphasis on preparedness, in a time where a progressive way of life has never been more at risk of becoming taboo or altogether ostracized."
The beauty of freedom is that people like this are allowed to form groups and associations; in fact, similar groups composed of people on the right have existed for years. But people in this country are not guaranteed that their life choices will not be considered taboo or ostracized by their communities. In fact, I applaud these folks and encourage them to live their progressive lives as long as they keep their progressivism out of mine. But that's not what progressivism is about and progressives want the force of government to compel their fellow citizens to also live progressively. No thank you. I can make my own choices....

I will eat them and take their stuff.
Liberals taste like chicken.
you don’t want to eat a liberal Lord knows they are diseased
Women, men, families, women, men, families, women, men, families...

It's fewer starving liberals I'll have to shoot when they try to overrun my farm.
Maybe this is them taking care of themselves, for once.
I wouldn’t worry about it too much. Untrained hoplophobes are more of a danger to themselves and their own families than to anyone else. How do I know? Well, that’s what they have been telling everyone else all these years.
“I hope no one is letting these crazy bastards buy firearms.”
I hope you’re not seriously advocating that their Second Amendment rights be denied, just because their political views differ from yours. That sort of thing sounds awfully...progressive...to me.
As for me, I hope the crazy bastards choose not to buy any of those evil guns.
Liberals buying guns,, prepping and not trusting government? They are becoming Libertarians...
Even the 'Libs' see value and security in prepping

A 'Keurig Single-serve' is not to be considered to be water storage !
“liberal prepper”
Now that is funny right there!
Sounds like conservatives in the making.
The ones to fear are their own, who are the ones whoa re rioting and destroying things and have no tolerance for other opinions.
No. MOM'S basement.
Barbra Streisand is building up her body fat by stuffing her face full of pancakes.
If it makes them suddenly appreciate gun rights, great.
If it helps keep prepping businesses open, excellent.
I was going to start a prepping-related business, but figured Trump’s election put that on hold. Maybe not! I wonder if I can base my prices in political affiliations...
I am glad they are suffering! I suffered for 8 years, let them feel the b_tthurt deeply. Feel the pain you libtard progressive freaks. Your world is ending!
Ping. I thought some of the comments on Progressives in this article relevant to your interests.
Are these the same people who made such fun of us trying to by ammo? Hey libs: sucks to be you, huh?

Where I was after Katrina, the National Guard was handing out Cajun MREs. Heat packs of jambalaya, gumbo, etc., with teensy little bottles of Tabasco. Well, I was impressed, anyway.
