Adaption would mean that you accept the new normal as normal. Hypernormalizing shows that you are (yet) not adapting. At least in my book.

It certainly looks like people are adapting mentally. What level of adaptation are you thinking of?

Getting enough food supplies to last a season. Having plans for what to do if the power goes out for a week. Having a bug-out bag ready to go. Connecting with a community to prep for potential self-sufficiency. Learning skills that would be useful in a post-global trade scenario. Getting money out of banks and into tools and goods you can give away or sell. etc.

Yeah, that's for rich people.
