It is likely that the push to ‘radicalize’ French citizens as preppers has to do with French President Emmanuel Macron’s recently nuclear weapon fetishization speech.
Sweden and Finland have issued similar prepper paraphernalia in the past in attempts to have their citizens ready for disasters, a controversial practice as prepared citizens may be less reliant on government for their every resource.

The French government has drafted a 20-page doomsday prepper guide for its citizens, detailing survival tips for terror attacks, pandemics, cyber threats and nuclear fallout. Interestingly, peppers have been derided as terrorists and selfish hoarders in the United States for over a decade now, with a National Guard whistleblower going so far as to say that “doomsday preppers will be treated as terrorists” in 2012. That same year a prepper was stranded in Hawaii after being put on a no-fly list.
“The survival manual aims to encourage citizens to develop their resilience in the face of different crises,” a spokespersonfor French Prime Minister François Bayrou told CNN.

If the prime minister approves the 20-pages of prepper paraphernalia, it will be unleashed on every household in France before summer and will direct citizens to be in possession of a so-called ‘survival kit’.
The literature promotes the supposedly terroristic practices of possessing emergency supplies, including six liters of water, a dozen cans of food, a flashlight and batteries in case the power grid goes down. It even alleges preppers should be in possession of basic medical supplies.
The booklet also recommends that the French prepper should have first responder emergency contacts at hand, know relevant radio channels and even directs people to keep all windows and doors shut in the case of a nuclear accident.
While the booklet would be available when the grid goes down (to keep with the off-grid prepper mentality) a French government website that went live in 2022 provides the internet-connected preppers advice on how to be ready for emergencies.
Sweden and Finland have issued similar prepper paraphernalia in the past in attempts to have their citizens ready for disasters, a controversial practice as prepared citizens may be less reliant on government for their every need.
On October 25, 2012 Alex Jones spoke with Soldier X, a National Guard whistleblower, regarding a chilling warning by the National Guard that “doomsday preppers will be treated as terrorists.”
Then on October 28, 2012 Jones spoke with Stewart Rhodes, founder and president of Oath Keepers, to discuss the government’s emerging war on ‘preppers,’ as evidenced by recent news of a prepper being placed on the no-fly list.
In 2014 Infowars detailed how the FBI was seeking to entrap preppers in terror plots to link the behavior of being prepared with terrorism.
