While I fully welcome our new zombie overlords, I also think this question is something like 10 years late. Wasn't this the big question in the early to mid teens?

Gonna laugh when the chuds run out of bullets immediately and are left without food and water because they actually suck at prepping.
Honestly the whole "zombie apocalypse" thing feels very pre-COVID
We've been through a global pandemic, shit was fucked before and shall remain fucked hence
Let's find a new supernatural metaphor for capitalism to obsesses over. With AI being all the rage I say it's time to bring back Frankensteins
Do I mean "Frankenstein's Monster" or the amoral, unhinged luminary who is responsible for giving life to an abomination?
Yes
I think "alien invasion" is due for a comeback. Actually, that makes me think of something. Nacon should make a video game adaptation of They Live. The glasses would be a great game mechanic.

We'll get back there someday.

Alien invasion tropes requires the threat of a second superpower with global reach and militaristic aspirations; which also corresponds with (but is not identical to) MAD inspired tropes
even Independence Day doesn't really do invasion, only destruction by a force we cannot understand or respond to effectively. I'd actually say it's more tapping in to cosmic horror, with a dash of environmental catastrophe (science expert no one listens to, early warning signs ignored by government, etc.)

No you’re not allowed. I’m picking you up in a six wheeled monster truck. Put on your leather pants and this hat made out of some gaskets, it’s apocalypse time.
Remember in World War Z when Donald Trump made a zombieproof celebrity fortress on Long Island, bragged to the world about it, only for non zombie refugees to overrun it?
I live within panicked running distance of a museum of arms and armour
So I'll be sitting in the cafe working through their stockpile of crisps and coffee, wearing full plate and keeping the hordes at bay with poleaxes
So you have chosen…a heart attack
Probably the way I'll go out without zombies, so at least this way I'm kitted out in such a manner that future archaeologists might think I'm important

In a zombies time I think I'd try to speedrun self-realization so I could get to the part where I understood man is the real monster and from there I'd create a new more enlightened society where we all finally achieve full communism.
Ooh, and assuming this is "mysterious animating force" zombism it wouldn't take too long to figure out essentially free energy powered by shambling, right? Just trap some skeletons in a room with a treadmill.

I respect their right to free speech which includes moving their mouth onto and through my arm, cos I’m a free speech absolutist
Also I’d find some of that shark proof chainmail that divers wear and then die of exhaustion because I’m unfit
