I watch that TV show Alone and even experienced survivalists struggle to get food. Us normies are screwed.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 11 months ago (1 children)

yeah but they have a very limited amount of supplies from a very limited selection (no guns) and its generally been intentionally in places that are very hard to survive in for one reason or another. Don't get me wrong though. Still hard but if you have yurt with sattelite internet and solar panels and guns and many buckets of survival rations and like something that gets water from humidity automatically and such. well not really as bad. so I guess it depends on how much time you could prep your hiding spot or even your stuff your going to go out with.

That's true and it's similar to how I took the question. If I've gone into hiding, I imagine it's an emergency situation with little to no time to prepare.

yeah but civiliazation is not far away so you should be able to scrounge at the least. in the show a plastic tarp or anything that can be used as a container is a big deal.
