Your tone 🙄🙄🙄
Yes. I read it all. I particularly read this section here:
Perhaps you are correct that the popular definition has changed, much like the Greeks (hilariously) changed the definition of egregious through their use of sarcasm. But your understanding is just plain wrong, you are incorrect. Your downvotes mean nothing, I've seen what makes you cheer.
I see no need to rebrand to conform to ignorance & lack of understanding. If you would like to learn more about prepping, here are some channels you can look into. I'd also recommend looking at the Facebook group, The Phantom Planters. It's prepping, kinda, but in a farming/growing way, whatever you want to call it. Perhaps you'll be inspired to plant some fruit trees around Indiana. 🙂
...and yes, the timing is embarrassing on my end because Canadian Prepper just announced last night that he is building a bunker. But he presents lots of good information otherwise. You'll probably like City Prepping more.
None of that is in the comment you replied to.

You're kind of proving my point. You're trying really hard to defend a word that no longer means to people what you want it to mean. The language has moved on.
