I don't watch TV. What are "Preppers"?...R
Preppers are also called survivalists. They prepare themselves to survive various apocalyptic scenarios. I respect the life experiences of some of these people (for example ex-military who have been in countries that have descended into chaos), also some are undoubtedly highly knowledgeable and skilled, and it is hard not to admire their energy and single minded dedication. However the scenarios some fear put them firmly into the same group as flat earthers in my opinion.
