In fact, my goal is to find a bunch of people out there like myself or similar in building a nice army of our own.
How many national socialists who are also like you have you met recently? IOW before people start dying off in large numbers. And unlike me you will be choosing from a smaller set. You will decide that if they do not look like you, they can't be part of your tribe. To me that's cosmolopolitan. You think there is some large group of people who are like you.
You think I'm some guy who watches too much television, actually I don't watch much television at all. I read more than actually watching T.V.
I believe I said Hollywood. Great, you're reading. In earlier incarnations you quoted films as evidence of reality. I think you still see the world through film archetypes. You've still modeled your 'solution' to how to relate to others on film characters. The naivte of enjoying a full societal collapse is someone seeing a movie in his head. Cause Hollywood makes that shit look cool.
Weapons? There will be enough stupid people with weapons killing each other. Procuring weapons from them is a non-issue, real easy when they're already dead.
Sure, but you're not one of the people really skilled with them. And those guys will also have helicopters, armoured vehicles and all sorts of toys they've trained with and some used in battle. You will not be one of the experts.
Also, I have had experience living off the land in hostile environments many times almost dying three times mind you being exposed to the elements. I'm not as much of a simpleton or lack experience to survive as you would like to make me be
I think you will have advantages over most people. Certainly most people who are addicted to their technology and have led comfy lives. Given your background you will likely have a much faster learning curve when dealing with threats, and you will be much less squeemish about using deadly force if necessary. I have little doubt you are a tough guy, would not hesitate to dive into a cesspool to save your life, could get your rage up fast and strike with your full strength early in a confrontation, that you can deal with harsh environments, be deprived of food and warmth for longer periods much better than the average person.
But the people who will be deciding things will either be vastly tougher than you are, and they are already much tougher and much better armed and much better trained on their weapons
or
people who have resources who can 'pay' those people.
It might all work out nice for you. It might. You stand a better chance than many people.
But the fact that you just assume it will all work out, is silly. It shows the hollywoodization of your mind. You are seeing images in your mind of it working out.
You are focusing on those aspects of yourself that give you advantages over the average guy and not focusing on things that make you not a major player.
It might work out, but there is a very very good chance it would not work out for you.
Well, now that we've got that out of the way.
Me interested in married women or those involved in relationships? You must really think I'm a home wrecker or naive. I only go after single women, I try not to wreck homes if I can help it. I am a man with some principles, geez.
I don't remember saying anythign about married women. maybe it had some other point in context. If you mean the guy bashing your head in while you're getting the blow job, that was in a post-apocalypse situation where you didn't know there was a guy or a guy around.
