The reason that I’ve gathered as to why most leftists hate preppers is that we are escaping the judgement of their own eschatology.
Their highest form of nirvana seems to be that everyone suffers, that “we’ll all be in the same boat” as one put it. This is their equivalent of the “new heavens and earth” promised to Christians in the Bible.
They, for some reason, think that condition to be FAR SUPERIOR to the present state of affairs where some people, through their own hard work and choices, live better lives than others, and don’t have to beg for sustenance.
Preppers, by being prepared to have a sustainable life outside the collective and not dependent on the “god” of government, are screwing up their perfect world.
“Their highest form of nirvana seems to be that everyone suffers, that “we’ll all be in the same boat”...”
That’s true - they want us all to be equal - poor and miserable - except for their annointed leaders.
I say since the government uses our money to provide a safe place filled with milk and honey for Hussein and family, I am as important as he is, so I’ll use my money to provide safety and milk and honey for me.

Yup, leftists want (us) to share the misery. But how many of them want to partake of the misery themselves? They’re “special”. It’s the hoi polloi who should share the misery, not Them.
