Interesting insight.
Helps explain why some people react strongly to an action that on the surface sounds reasonable and prudent.
Heck, even the feds suggest stockpiling food, water and supplies for disasters and emergencies.
But I do know that there seems to be a growing view in liberal circles that prepping is hoarding and a reason to be suspicious of preppers.
For some leftists, it’s almost as if the post-crash America is some sort of eschatological utopia where “everyone’s in the same boat” (and I quote).
And if you are planning to avoid their utopian equality,
you are a really bad person.
This is why “hoarding” is so evil in their eyes. You’re avoiding “righteous” judgement.
