IF ?

Here is a thread I'll start but am not going to participate in because I want to try and learn more about other peoples attitude towards preparedness.

OK, here we go
If someone told you a mega tsunami was going to hit here in 8 ours you would flee uphill and inland, If someone told you that a virus that was lethal was spreading through the cities from physical contact not airborne you would react to it straight away either bugging out or isolating yourself indoors, if our government told you the EU was going to invade our cities in a couple of weeks time you would sod off sharpish to some safe place. If the media exposed a government plot to round up milions of you and enslave you in work camps you would run and hide.

So why when the evidence is overwhling that our cities are fast becoming dangerous and very unsafe places to live cos of overcrowding, crime, terrorism, political extremism, poverty, pollution, poor environment, etc and not fit places to live. You know that the professionals and middle classes are already fleeing in droves and have done so for two decades now.

Why do you CHOOSE to remain?
*Point of note this is NOT an attack nor a criticism or condemnation , or judgement in any way or form, this is a genuine academic question.

No one is having a go at anyone.

The evidence is absolutely clear the threats and hazards are multi faceted and undeniable, you WOULD flee a tsunami of water, so why WONT you flee a tsunami of crime or social collapse?

I point out again I wont respond I just want to read and learn because I'm clearly missing some fundamental motivation or driving influence that makes people slective as to what major threat they face.

Thanks in advance
