Is Prepping a Form of Activism?

I had never thought about prepping activities being a form of activism until seeing the featured blog from Backdoor Survival. I have been called an activist and I suppose in my own way I am, because I actively encourage others to prepare to be self-reliant. It is my personal belief that the more of us that survive the better off we all will be. But the actual process of prepping equaling activism never occurred to me.

When I think of an activist, I see them as someone very visible in the community who is attempting to make a change in the way things are done or thought about in today’s society. Preppers however, attempt to remain grey and unnoticed in their communities and live a life style that is a return to a self-sustaining life or simply are insuring their quality of life regardless of any SHTF event.

Does our community qualify as activists because we do tend to have a belief in recycling, reusing, and sustaining natural resources? These are issues dealt with by activists as well.

What do you think? Are you an activist? See what it is about preppers and prepping that could qualify us as activists, it’s linked below
