From Back to Bataan...
FILIPINO: We have no arms.
WAYNE: Where did you get this?
FILIPINO: Killed a Jap.
WAYNE: Kill more Japs and get more guns.
Indefatigable logic.
Again... that idea is terrifying to some people. And they’re the ones who won’t / don’t survive calamities.
Those that understand and embrace that simple idea - DO survive. And win.
Look at the movie “The Pianist”. Those people were herded from one deteriorating situation to another and ultimately herded into the boxcars for the last ride to the gas chambers of Treblinka, Auschwitz, and other death camps. And they refused to see it or do anything about it - they kept saying “We’re being relocated... it’ll be all right...” And by the time they realized what was actually happening, the boxcar doors were being locked in place behind them.
Even the main character, with an MP40 machine pistol laying on the ground in front of him, wouldn’t pick it up to fight back... conditioned NOT to fight. Sickening.
Just have to face the fact that a good number of folks are and always will be Sheeple, and you can’t count on them to be anything BUT Sheeple.
Find out who you CAN count on, and gravitate there. And have the WILL to survive whatever comes along.
