You are aware, right, that this is the Self-sufficiency and Preparedness forum? It's not the "take your relatives on vacation" or "how to grow tomatoes" forum.
yes. so I ask again....WHY would you be in a CAMP? (I did ask literally or figuratively.) IF people are planning to go LITERALLY to a CAMP, then that tells me zero situational or tactical awareness. and it often means they intend on surviving by shooting OTHER survivors becuz well, thats what the interwebs are all about.

WE plan for that as well. Just sayin.
I sometimes worry about people because of how single thought, take at face value they seem to be.
Are you not aware that "camp" can mean those of your thinking?
Ie, from the Net when I asked it to define "camp"
2. the supporters of a particular party or doctrine regarded collectively.
"the change is aimed at accommodating last year's political agreement between the island territory's pro- and anti-independence camps"

I thought, along with RetireinPA, that you meant a physical camp. A place where you and your friends would hunker down for a period of extended time.
Otherwise why would you can if someone "waste precious resources because they don't comprehend the desperate situation one is in." Why would care if someone is racking up their credit cards for things you don't want or buy?
Then you discuss Lost in Space where they are literally in a space/camp situation.
Quote:
If one watched the 60s Lost in Space, they would see time after time where Dr. Smith used up critical supplies for himself. Such as he used the Carbon tetra, critical for their food preservation, to get a spot of his clothes, left the top off, and it evaporated (in a time of TV production before we knew how deadly the stuff is). Or all of their water supply for a shower because he could not go another day feeling icky.
So are you planning on forming a support system in a physical space which would be your camp?

hence literally or figuratively. there is no contextual clues given here. (plus people might look sideways at 're-education' phrasing. By qualified WHOM? the very term implies someone has a contemptuous view of some class of people and we know, THAT never works out. someone always ends up in mass graves.)

oh btw...a number of years back we studied the sociological aspects of what you are describing here, where we can say I am in this camp of thinking, and I am in that camp of thinking etc repetetively. problem is, when this happens, it forms 'religion' <-----note the ticky quotes! and *THAT* never works out well EITHER. It becomes lord of the flies on steroids.
The same answer applies to this post. Take a guess. What do you think people are the most likely to be talking about on the Self-sufficiency and Preparedness forum? I don't have any problem with understanding what the OP is generally talking about.
and to answer this part (sorry, rare sunny pitt day, had to shake the boat before vacay....) I have my ideas, but dont want to assume anything. because I fear the answers here could get real scary real fast, meaning we need more red flag laws ;-)
recall, a week or so back I for the first time saw this forum cuz that 'hot topic' thingy popped up with something about 'faraday cages' and I thot, lets check that out, I know what those are and what they are for (bargaining in good faith ALWAYS gets me in trouble) and heckfire, mebbe meet a fellow sparky doing side work off the AK or diYaudio....boy, WAS I EVER WRONG. lol.
so now, too late, you piqued the interest of someone who LITERALLY does (did, as of last night 12am) disaster prep for unca sam. comparing notes is always fun and a lot is actually not classified but I dont think that fits the bill. AS jack reacher said, '...people looking for a legal means to kill someone'. THAT is what we are fearful of. Too many movies, too many TWD episodes out there...too many coal rolling pickups, too many ARs.
the idea is to restore normalcy. not beat the s*** out of people that disagree with you. so yeah, EXACTLY what type of 'camps' are we talking about is an important data point.

Difference in how we use our words. "I Love Lucy" and "All My Children" did a wonderful job of getting us to speak more alike than we did 100 years ago, but I think we have a ways to go
"Re-education camps"?? isnt that what they have in China when you dont toe the party line??
We could complain about a click bait subject line, but her meaning was clear if you read the first dozen or so words.
