I have been doing some thinking and
researching for the past day, trying to figure out what is the
difference between a homesteader, a prepper, and a survivalist. Often
times they are used interchangeably to incorrectly describe what it
is a person really does. I **think** I finally figured it out.
Disclaimer: This is only meant to be a
light hearted, tongue-in-cheek, thing, so please don't be offended by
these descriptions. (Sorry a head of time if it does offend
someone...)
Survivalist: Someone who will catch a
bear with a trap made out of a tiny twig and para-chord. He will then
kill it with his bare hands, skin it with his teeth and eat the bear
raw using the salt from his sweat to season the raw meat.
Prepper: Someone who will get a 10 lb.
can of dehydrated bear meat from their 30 year stock pantry and enjoy
it very much.
Homesteader: Someone who while raising
the bear from a cub, will use the bear manure to fertilize the corn
and beans in their fields that will be used to feed the bear. After
the bear is sufficiently large enough, they will butcher the bear,
dehydrate the meat. Then they will tan the bear hide and make
para-chord, Then they will sell the dehydrated meat to the prepper
and the para-chord to the survivalist.
Sorry...I couldn't help myself tonight.
