   American friends, why are some people stockpiling toilet paper again?

     That's at least part of why I was stockpiling stuff.

     Toilet paper isn't really being threatened. Bananas might be more of an issue.

     @Shlomo @HoroTheWhiteWolf It's because every port on the east coast is on strike and shortages of things are coming. Dumbasses don't realize the US is a net exporter of toilet paper tho so there won't be a shortage

     Also the recent hurricane actually flooded the highest quality quartz mine in the world, whose produce is essential for modern semiconductor manufacturing, if you're interested in how crazily intricate and fragile our global supply chains can get.
