It's just not the big issue he thinks it is. Again, we've survived dozens of them since we started walking, and at least two since we started farming.
Look, I grew up around actual amish. A "disaster" that merely destroys electrical technology is NOT an apocalyptical event. An increase in ambient solar radiation is not catastrophic. Another ICE AGE will not wipe out humanity (although the war it provokes might).
You could be here screeching "billions will die" and I'd still say "but millions will live", and I will calmly take my chances with such odds. Because I've seen what pre-modern life looks like. It's not the end of the fucking world.
