I used to think there was nothing more stupid in zombie movies than uninfected humans just leaving each other alone and killing off the zombies. Why would you bother taking guns from other people when you have so many just lying around after 90% of the people died? If everyone just killed 10 zombies, the whole thing would be cleared up. I don’t think that anymore.
Yeah, at the time I assumed that the people intentionally spreading in game were just trolling because there was no actual danger to themselves. Reality proved that tons of people are fine with harming themselves as long as they harm others at the same time.
nah. There’s some footage out there of people going maskless and when pressured to put masks on for their safety, they proudly proclaimed that they currently have it, so they can’t get infected again. This ignores the fact that you can catch different strains and you probably aren’t going to double the severity of your symptoms from having two infections. Infection duration on the other hand might be doubled. Turns out selfish people are very, very often stupid people.
This is why the literal only thing that would work is making it legal to shoot people who are unmasked if they’re coughing (which is insane, but insane is the baseline I guess)
Corrupted Blood taught us that we needed to add the vital “I’m a malicious/selfish asshole” variable to our calculations.
I used to get so mad at movies that had unrealistic portrayals of how people would act in a crisis situation.
After COVID, I no longer question the unbelievable stupidity of humans, nor the amount of hatred humans have.

Or the miraculous assumption that surely I won’t become infected, but I’ll be damned if I’m gonna be safe for other people!

If I start following rules now I’ll break my streak!
