Power went out

cope, they'd just drink and eat and play instrumental music and dance

dude, southern europe is basically paradise
you people often complain but you dont know how good you have it
I guess that is true for alot of europe but especially for you

this. there's still some life left in this high trust society. it's struggling, but it isn't dead, yet.

Culturally Spain was conditioned to suppress all dissent or negative expression under Francisco Franco (a couple years ago lawmakers even attempted to pass a Damnatio Memoriae on his regime), as was Portugal under Salazar
Americans literally act that way because they had the right to do so. It's physically impossible for a nation that systemically prevented and violently corrected all civil unrest to imagine it being done by people of their own free will

next time it's really happening, you guys!

you better listen to me!!!

it's really gonna happen next time!

Americans are just a special kind of retarded.

they tend to live in a grim future they collectively manifested and we're on a bad road leading to the same place. difference is that over here there's still some basic concept of dignity left that wasn't eaten away by mass media and end stage capitalism. let the whore of Babylon be a warning to all of us.

Cuba totally just sang and danced throughout their blackout, huh
Wood and gas stoves are a luxury in Europe where most stoves only have 2 electric burners

It took a gigantic power outage for europoors to go outside.

Not the own you think it is

I was saying in the threads you need 24 hours and then the power bugs get ya

shit head you experienced 1 short power out.
do that shit for a week with no end in sight and get back to me.

you won't
cause you'll die by the hands of some muslim who has zero compunction.

All I can say is that it's not just that nothing happened, but that we were all doing great. And that includes the minorities. I just think this kind of redpilled me on it really is more societal and cultural than racial. Any race can adapt as long as its in small quantities over time.

So did every He just have generators going to serve you at cafes and shit? No power means no refrigeration, 12 hours makes a lot of stuff trash

You faggots are going extinct and we don't care about you obsessed faggots I just hope you kill each other soon

make this thread again when the outages start happening every week and let us know if everything's still wholesome 100 based chill brazilian niggers

You sound like you care

Keep telling yourself that pigfuck.

you were expecting the purge in a few hours in daytime? But it didn't happen and now you think you can all sing and dance together in arms?

what are you going to do when the power goes out big guy?
are you immediately going to kill your neigbours and steal all their toiletpaper?

Yeah, I guess for 1 day it wasn't bad. Now people having their own farms, no outer dependency on energy, water, no bullshit diseases. Now that would be an actual utopia on this earth.

Same, but my mother kept raging and whining and blaming my dad for not owning a generator.

100%. They've completely lost sight of all that is good and live in actual hell. I've been there. It is palpable.

Holy mother of cope

Maybe... we're just not savage retards like you guys?

This guys gets it
First day is novelty
Second day is reality
and it gets progressively worse.
Your fridges didnt melt and you think you are tough lol

glad to hear you guys are doing better!

based

he relies on food that needs to be refrigerated

ngmi

You're third-world and brown and you showed it once again
Stop coping about it

But you were hit too

Based poortugal bro.

nigger your tuna cans last for just so long
you are talking to guy who lived under sanctions including electricity sanctions during good half of 90s
You niggers will collapse within a week.
Probably to cannibalism

i mean this is the perfect occasion to discuss the energy policy of this bag full of cats called the EU

and look at the UK and their Net Zero policies!
They are going to have the post NATO-Warsaw pact confrontation quality of life without the nuclear war!

Unless food shipments to markets are somehow halved, it's not that special. I've experienced like a 3 day blackout before. Nothing happened. As long as the goyslop gets on the table it's mostly chill. Can be worse in bigger cities where crime is high. Smaller cities not so much. Could be worse now since crime seems to be going up.

It's a waste when all the stuff in the fridge goes off even if you have the dry goods to survive

Not nearly at the scope like on the Iberian peninsula, but people in LA got a somewhat panicked emergency alert about our electricity grid and how everyone was supposed to cut their consumption about 2 years ago.
Absolutely everyone did and worked together. Avoiding rolling black outs and putting everything back to normal within 20 minutes. And that's in LA, one of the biggest most globohomo and mixed cities on this planet.

In an emergency we stick together.

That's because we have a lot of Portuguese in France

To counter point this

many supermarkets were absolute shitshows, people were fighting over toilet paper once again

gas stations had lines extending several kilometers

mass spreading of misinformation across all social media

It was a comfy blackout, but I do tend to agree that if this lasted for a couple days instead of hours things would probably get a bit nasty.
Although I like to think we wouldn't turn into fucking monkeys and begin raping and pillaging either, I do believe at least in my neighbourhood we'd try to help each other out through the hard times instead.

ok teach me senpai, i got a room full of canned basics - no fucking meat I'm not a savage - of rice, bulgur, chickpeas, beans, fermented food, salt, spices, wheat, yeast, tomatoes, lentils, any legume you can think of in general, stuff rich in protein, b12, vinegar, oil, nuts and much more. i got lamp oil, has for the lighters, stock of tobacco and booze, all tools, a diesel car you can repair, wood for years, good ovens, what am i missing?

you will get killed you dumb mitherfucker

people were fighting over toilet paper once again

i dont get this, you see
i have a hemorrhoid so once in a while i must use a soft soapy cloth to wash my burning bleeding asshole
this is of course a great annoyance to me but i still can not conceive of getting into a fistfight in the supermarket over some pieces of paper

in the worst case i would rather wash my ass in the ocean

The only thing you need is direct connection with someone on country side, if you live in a city without it, its going to be rough and expensive.
Stove and wood are great, you dont need anything more than direct supplier everything else is come and goes in blackouts

ou dont need anything more than direct supplier everything else is come and goes in blackouts

Unless said supplier gets short on supplies, then you're out innawoods hunting for game.

eggs are always coming
fresh flour is available
milk which you dont think about usually is there as well.
They dont just dissapear.
The biggest mistake that people will do is to stockpile bullshit, flour especially, that coming in pack is never from this year but from Godknows when but still in good shape when it was packed.
milk, flour and eggs
You would be surprised how that shit dissapears from everywhere in city in blink of an eye.
You will find sodas, beer, cigarettes even, but that shit is gold.

but you would go fishing

I forgot vegetable oil , that shit is also scarce

milk which you dont think about usually is there as well.

I don't? Well that's news to me. But I agree with mostly anything else you said.

I mean its everywhere so you dont think about it
But its gone from stores its only at people who have livestock

Yeah, go out fishing and not come back to this shithole. The way OP talks sounds all sweet and butterflies. But as for me, I've just had enough of one day having to interact with people. Good night.

Those were all shills. Americans outside of the most infested city ghettos don't freak out about power outages.

This
Nah. Europe could go without electricity. It would actually benefit poeple.
In US you all hate each other and only the threath of law keeps you nice. The moment the law or system crumbles its total war.
In Europe law doesnt really protect you. You cant sue your way out of anything. So less reliance on law = less crisis if system collapses.

Salve.

Panic and looting only happens in big cities. When the hurricane came through last September my town lost power for over a few weeks in the worst parts and there wasn't any looting because this is a smallish town in the South where everyone is armed. When people are armed and the system breaks down shit stays locked down because the people keep shit from hitting the fan. Look at the whites in Louisiana after Katrina. Shot blacks on sight and the looting stopped. Bad shit only happens in big cities where they disarmed everyone.

Bad shit only happens in big cities where they disarmed everyone.

Because the Army and police are supposed to keep order.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAAHAHHAAHHAHAAHAHAHAHHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHHAHAAAHAHAHAHAAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHHAAHAHAAHAHHAHAAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAAHAHHAAHHAHAAHAHAHAHHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHHAHAAAHAHAHAHAAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHHAAHAHAAHAHHAHAAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAAHAHHAAHHAHAAHAHAHAHHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHHAHAAAHAHAHAHAAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHHAAHAHAAHAHHAHAAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAAHAHHAAHHAHAAHAHAHAHHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHHAHAAAHAHAHAHAAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHHAAHAHAAHAHHAHAAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAAHAHHAAHHAHAAHAHAHAHHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHHAHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAHHAAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHAHAH

You get power back and the first thing you do is post about Americans.
You've already lost.

48 hours of no power in Los Angeles and shit would be fucking burning down lol

Do you have a gun? Otherwise all that stuff makes you a juicy target. I went to a class in college where we interviewed veterans and war survivors and one was a survivor from the Siege of Sarajevo and he said the most important thing, period, is being armed. A gun and ammo can get you any thing you want, it can protect you, and it can protect your loved ones and your property. You can trade ammunition for supplies, or you can take what you want at gunpoint. You make your home unassuming, you make yourself unassuming. Anything nice, big, or fancy is always a priority target for looters and shitfuckers. They work their way down on houses by appearance. Your food will keep someone else fed if you aren't armed and trained to use it.

supposed

When the system breaks down they won't be there, otherwise the system wouldn't have broken down in the first place.

Also this is such a a European mindset. It's cute how you guys have faith in your governments.

Today (since I obviously had too much time to think about stuff) I actually realised if I was an american I totally would be a Anon Babbleommando, currently if shit really hit the fan like a total systemic collapse, I could lock myself in my house and still I wouldn't be able to resist if a couple of goons broke in.
Having a gun to blast any fucker that tries to break my door down honestly sounds rather nice.
My point is, I do think I understand a bit why the 2nd amendment is so hard or basically impossible to get rid of. Once you get into that kind of mentality it's probably near impossible to change it.

They had a chance after the Civil War, if Lincoln had survived he would've definitely argued for a 2nd Amendment repealing.

Poortugal is confirmed a third world shithole for having blackouts lmfao

these anticarbondioxide luddites are a clear and present danger tho and they are coming to kill you

Cope

Seethe.

If the power went out and I knew reliably that emergency services could not take calls for 12+ hours then I don't know how I'd stop beating and knifing any pajeet I can get in arm's reach.

power goes out mid day

everyone takes an extended siesta

hey look at us, we survived the apocalypse
