We are witnessing significant changes in America’s geopolitics.
We, in both North and South America, share a common history and have lived through similar independence processes, which is more than enough for despotic regimes to fear.
I apologize beforehand because this is an article not so directly related to prepping at the beginning, but the reason is a simple one.

Reality Shock
My experiences indicate that you’re going to need as many supplies as you can get. Surprise surprise.
Unless you are a seasoned farmer/gardener with years of experience as a backup and enough productive land, tools, and access to water, it’s going to be rough to stock up enough preps. Most of the readers live in climates with harsh winters. They are miles ahead of the rest of us, who don’t need to pile up firewood to survive the winter, for example. In the tropics, for instance, you can’t just hang dry meat in the open. Flies will contaminate it with eggs, no matter how salty it is. A smoker is a good idea, but getting the proper firewood shavings is hard: most tropical woods have too much resin.
Don’t get me wrong.
Preparing, stockpiling, and training for the aftermath of an abnormal event is a must; however, life taught me that there is no such thing as a “short collapse.” I had 1-2 months of stockpile enough for two adults, a teenager, and a child, including a good water tank (300 gallons). That was back in the prime of my prepping times, with a good salary.
A small room loaded with dry groceries like (rice/beans/pasta/flour/cornmeal/spices) in buckets with a lid, laurel leaves to repel bugs, and a secondary fridge plus a chest freezer. And like 8-9 boxes of canned tuna, eight boxes of UHT packages of liquid whole milk jars with anchovies and sardines, vegetables in vinegar, chocolate, cookies for the kids, and an assortment of other things, including personal hygiene and house cleaning supplies, sure we could overcome a short disruption.
But the reality hit like a ton of bricks. All of that is gone now. The “government” wasn’t looking for anything else but taking the population to their knees, as it happened, indeed. Rationing and hyperinflation were the weapons.
How long the next collapse will be?
Sadly, the abnormal disruption of life I foresee is not short at all. We are on the verge of a major global conflict, and Venezuela is a “hot corner” in all this. We are going to face a truly difficult 2025, even after having won an election in the most challenging circumstances against a non-democratic regime.
We won a battle, but the war ahead will not be a “political” one, I’m afraid.
The uncertainty will increase exponentially, and many people smarter than me agree.
The ugly truth that no woke socialist will tell you is this: the global conflict is the only way those regimes can survive in a world that craves freedom.
China is working actively and investing heavily in societal control because they know what is coming.
Their Western allies in all the governments have the same agenda: disarm civilians, establish the “15 minutes city”, electric cars or scooters connected via WiFi that can be disabled remotely, social credits, the WHO “vax passport,” and digital currency. All of that is NOT to ease your life. It’s to control people.
