When I first saw Night of the Living Dead I may yet have been pre-teen. Back then I only thought it campy and not a horror, and certainly not symbolic of what human behavior could become.

Nowadays, long before reading much of the commentary in this thread, I saw many of my contemporaries behaving much like zombies even to the extent they could not understand what I mean. When I first saw Zombietime’s videos of anti-breeder demonstrations in San Francisco I was convinced they saw this too as proven by the name they adopted for their site.

Some people who never chose to have children, and some who tried and failed, somewhere became envious of those who did have them. And they gone on now and have even convinced themselves that somehow they are behaving selflessly heroic in saving the planet. Moronic is more apt, and potentially dangerous too.

When I say zombies I mean some humans who still having every appearance of life, but unmistakeably have no personal DNA invested in the future. And they aim to influence — eat the “brains” to self-preserve that God gave every other living thing — the children of those who did breed from having kids of their own simply because now they realize they have been left out.

I’m sorry folks, but many of you whom I previously thought sensible now seem to be exactly this sort of zombie.
