People have been doomsday preppers for a lot longer than 4patriots has been around.

Their marketing angle is panned to the hyper "paranoid, super conservative segment"

You would be surprised how many liberals fall into the doomsday scene.

It never hurts to have a few emergency supplies on hand.

You never know when the shite will hit the fan.

Next thing that you are going to tell me is that you roll your eyes at the Cheaper Than Dirt Ammunition site as well.

The Mormons have been heavily involved in our nation's disaster prep. That being said, if 4P has a good deal I will use it to supplement my hurricane supplies

Fear always sells. And the biggest targets?
Hard right conservatives and Christians.

Or maybe it's marketed to self reliant people who want to be able to take care of themselves if things go south and not stand in line at a soup kitchen waiting for government handouts.

While an alien invasion may be silly, there are plenty of valid natural disasters that people should always prepare themselves for

Yeah because a hurricane has never hit Louisiana and sent places back to the stone age for a while

The OP is the person knocking on your door for food if the grid ever goes down because he thinks preparing for disaster is "ultra conservative."

This isn’t a knock on the Conservative Party as I am conservative. It’s just too far and dumb.
your neighbor that has emergency food is not gonna let you knock on his door. He’s gonna blow your arse away if you get near his front door.

Bro if society breaks down into chaos those without prep materials will exponentially outnumber those with it, and those with it will be overrun
if you have land and a lot money… sure, prep

People who live in suburbs or cities who don’t have a securable compound getting into this stuff is hilarious to me

First rule of being a prepper is not talk about being a prepper.

It’s SHTF insurance. If you think it can’t happen, you haven’t been paying attention.

There's nothing wrong with being prepared, but I have tried some of the 4Patriots food and it's not very good. You can do better putting your own food together. And that generator they sell, that looks like some crap to me.
Get a real generator.
