Why are preppers hated so much

[Tartar Horde]

SD has hit the nail on the head why preppers/survivalists are given a bad press. No state wants it's people/commodity to have freedom of thought, free thinking individuals are the greatest enemy of a regime that needs your total obedience. The state despises our love of free speech and the right to determine our own future as we see fit because it robs them of power over us. The ever increased drive to state surveillance and control over the internet and independant media outlets, as well as increasing police powers to curb freedoms will continue until the population at large decide to resist through civil disobedience. TPTB are relying on the majority of the population "buying into" the conditioning that is so prevelant in all our TV/media/Schools to keep them complient. I come into contact with a lot of people and I am not surprised at the amount of contempt our politicians are held in by them. The Police are now seen by many of our countrymen as nothing more than glorified money collectors, and a private political army who can literally kill you without punishment, the feeling is they no longer serve US. The simple reason our government continues to implement laws to limit our freedom is that they believe the people lack the moral fibre and strength of conviction to stop them.
