A bombshell investigative report aired by CBS 60 Minutes just confirmed what many in the national security community long suspected: Russia has developed — and deployed — a portable, concealable directed energy weapon capable of causing serious neurological damage and injury to people without leaving a trace.

Leading AI safety experts warn that we face the “risk of extinction from AI” due to the ability of AI to create new WMD and the impossibility of controlling AI (unlike nuclear weapons). AI safety experts explain in a recent book, If Anyone Builds It, Everyone Dies why humans will not be able to control AI. Fortitude Ranch, the nation’s largest survival community, has adopted an AI survival strategy of posing no threat to an AI system, not […]

In our periodic polling of preppers on what they believe is most likely to trigger a societal collapse (widespread, long lasting loss of law and order), an economic collapse is often the top concern.

There are unfortunately many ways an economic downturn could lead to a collapse, violence and widespread loss of law and order: Any of the above factors […]

A recent poll of several hundred preppers, people who are looking at news and watching for threatindications, well informed, asked, “Do you believe that President Trump’s actions and plans to date are increasing or decreasing the likelihood of a domestic civil war?” The poll found that 50% believe Trump is “greatly increasing” the likelihood of civil war, with another 20% indicating he is slightly increasing likelihood of civil war.  7% responded that Trump is not having an impact on the likelihood of civil war, but that a domestic civil war is likely.  Combined, 77% of respondents believe Trump is increasing the […]
