Yeah the "self sufficiency" thing is kinda bs. More of a fantasy prepper types have. If there was a societal collapse (unlikely) people who work together as small communities will probably be the ones who thrive. Prepper types will either run out of their rations and homestead types would just get taken over by said communities lmao. Also some dude from long island is not gonna have a self sufficient farm in VT. Especially after climate collapse.

There really has never been a time in history where solitary humans were the ones that thrived.

Yeah. Vt is more community oriented. We really dont take kindly to preppers who move in from the big city and do wierd shit in the woods. We already have the ruby ridge people.

Texas is probably more of the type of place you should go to do that.

Edit: also I really dont think you are thinking this through. You are a rich long islander. Buying a vacation home in bumfuck vermont that you plan to ride out the apocalypse in. All the people in back woods vermont know each other and know who their neighbors are. They are armed to the teeth

What do you think is going to happen when they realize their asshole solitary neighbor has a ton of food and supplies.

Idgaf if people want to move here and contribute. This guy just seems like he wants to buy 100 acres of property so he can live out his prepper fantasy once a year.

Vermont really isn't that big though. If you want to be in the middle of nowhere its not the place to move lol.

Soon enough we will get to ignore it. This reminds me of self driving cars in 2015 reddit got flooded with wierd hypebeasts and then the tech progress slowed way down.

The hype is reaching unrealistic levels. Subreddits dedicated to chatgtp and bing are essentially cults who believe its sentient at this point. Soon we will get to the trough of disappointment as this tech gets deployed to the general public and people start finding its faults
