But free gas masks!

Well, most of the federal government doesn't seem too concerned, so i guess that's understandable.

Not at all, if anything, it's escalating. Hide your kids, hide your wife!

Today government officals from New Jersey held a press conference(somehow only fox news seems to have the video), local sheriff's departments are taking matters into their own hands, and sightings have expanded to include other states, and military bases, including a us military base in germany, and other sensitive areas.

Not guilty by way of self defense?

You do have a point. At this juncture, I think, anything is possible. Really, non of it ads up. Half is fake and the other half is mystery. There is definitely still a large leap from his actions to this ideaology.

The future vice president of America is close with the leaders of the neoreactionary movement. I suppose, I wonder if a positive public opinion would make it easier for them to mobilize.

Edit: ending up with support from both sides of the isle.

That's a sensible way to look at it. People's actions can be separate from thier outlook, and that's ok.

Fair take. That wasn't my intention, although, now, I suppose that maybe a natural progression.

I admit, there is definitely a disconnect, considering his actions, but, I really am torn on the idea. I guess, I question that if (and big if) his intention is to build this type of future, would his actions be enough to make others sympathetic to his cause? If, or at what point, people turn away?

It could just be the tech culture he was around, and not the actual reasoning. Guess we'll have to wait and see.

 

Im talking worst case scenario, something like Station 11 or the movie Contagion

If the bird flu started spreading rapidly from human to human, and it devastated our population as it can in birds or marine life, how long would one have to hole up in seclusion before the virus burned through the population and it would probably be safe to come out.

Obviously, this is not the current situation, and this scenario is a long way from becoming any type of reality. This is just a hypothetical. If turds hit the fan, I dont want to waste time trying to figure this out in the moment while everyone's ill, and can't answer.

Move over B's, I want first dibs on the tp!

Edit: I'm not thinking of a flu, as it behaves in the human population as we know it. I'm talking like zombie virus, without the worry of reanimation. Like, pretty much, everyone that catches it, dies, and it spreads fast and stealthily enough that the end result is a drastically lower population of survivors. How long would a person have to stay isolated to outlive the worst of it.
