      But have you considered that going to therapy and dealing with their intense insecurity is scary?

      Bros will have nuclear armegeddon before seeing a social worker and it shows.

        Therapy would pierce the veil of lies and ignorance that they’ve made their Identity.

        People will burn down their house before admitting they were wrong their whole lives.

          For what these doomsday prepers spend to compensate for their small manhood, they could easily pay for multiple sessions of therapy, even in the US.

          Like the other person said, the people that do and say all this crazy shit spend thousands on rifles, rods, and trucks when a Crosstrek would probably be perfect. And that’s fine I guess it’s just they have the money(or the willingness to spend it anyway) and could probably squeeze a bi-weekly session in there.

            Love how their idea of surviving the collapse of society is driving a huge ass truck, 'cause gasoline apparently falls from the sky

              To their defense, if there’s a sudden collapse, there will likely a surplus of oil laying around that will be available for a while.

      I felt silly for buying a 63 gallon, foldable/portable water tank for my small farm because the vast majority of the ones I looked at were marketed towards preppers.

      I just want my animals to have water in case the power goes out for a few days.

      But the way things like that are marketed makes it sound like your the smartest, bestest, most prepared person to ever walk this earth. I don’t need you to stroke my ego, just sell a foldable water tank with no leaks please.
