Prepping on Telegram: Javier Azurmendi's channel

Prepping in the age of micro-content: Javier Azurmendi's channel

The prepper, with fifteen years of blogging experience, has peine a Telegram channel to organize his content, though he admits the format does not encourage depth. In one week he gained 26 subscribers, a modest but significant figure among those who reject the trend toward short texts.

A thematic index as a guiding thread

Far from limiting himself to scattered posts, he has drawn up an index structured into chapters: from food storage and crops under radioactive conditions to mental preparation for a general collapse. It also covers financial matters (stock market investing, metals) and self-sufficiency topics such as the Trombe wall or butane generators for extended blackouts. The index is updated and distributed regularly to make navigation easier.

The platform dilemma

Despite his skepticism about digital fads, he acknowledges that Telegram is now an effective way to reach an audience. He rejects the idea of turning his blog into a book or creating a YouTube channel: he prefers to keep his direct, no-frills style. His goal is not to build an audience, but to offer content with no filler, even if that means running out of material soon.

Adapting to a harsher scenario

In his latest updates, he admits he is readjusting his plans: from a blackout lasting days to one lasting several weeks, which has forced him to add butane generators. An example of how preparation must evolve with the threats.

This channel is a rarity in today's media ecosystem: dense, well-organized content on a platform built for the ephemeral. Anyone looking for serious prepping training will find a valuable resource here, even if it annoys lovers of three-minute videos.
