Comment by Daniel_Uhrmacher on What are your plans for the evening of the apocalypse? · 2018-08-02T14:49:30.330Z · LW · GW

I first wanted to write a poste about the fact that all depends on the type of apocalypse, but the more I was writting, the more I realised that the outcome and the process would be the same in pretty much every case.

A biological desaster would force us to stay in safe zones, the financial sectors would break down and the army could abuse of it's power, because some weeks after the beginning of the apocalypes, the rule of the strongest would lead again.

An enormous financial crisis would make every infrastructure collapse, driving us to form small groups of 10-15 people that would help each other to survive. In this scenario the army is -again- the strongest and the ruler.

However, I think that in this case there would be soon new states and organisations growing on the ruins of our past civilisation.

A natural desaster could wipe out human kind and if not, it would be like in the biological scenario and force us to stay in safe zones under the watch of the ones who have the weapons.

What could be a leading factor is the severity of the desaster, but we are talking of an apocalyps here, so I gonna assum it would be extrem sever.

Having members of my family that rely on some pharmaceuticals to live, I would first steal all I can grab in the pharmacy before joining a small group to live as best as we can.
