What is fascinating is that you seem to know Romero’s work and of other authors who used Zombies as a way to criticise capitalism, society, even racism, but you completely miss the point when start with “zombies are constantly trying to get past our borders” as an actual alegory to people crossing borders and refugee crisis all over the world. Not to mention that it seems you only know Western zombie movies, a hint, Asians do it to (and very well).

I mean, you can understand the wave of zombie movies as an alegory to a irrational fear of being invaded, tht’s ok, but that’s the way YOU see it. It’s a completely different thing to say that authors and directors are using zombie movies this way, portraying reality in such way.

After mentioning Romero and others you seem to try to validate your nonsensical theory that now zombies equal racism and stuff by going back to Haitian zombies and drawing from that all that racism only you can see and references that you just made up in your mind. That’s just sad.

I wonder why this kind of baseless “criticism” always finds a home. If you want to pretend that the moon is racist because “she’s” white I bet youll find a place to publish it (and pay for it). It’s the new fashion.

“Contemporary white filmmakers have appropriated zombies to express their fear of, well, black people.”

WHAT?

Anything after this point is just pure nonsense.

Bonus: “ Its toxic masculinity and distrust of women, its fetishistic love of assault rifles, its open nostalgia for a more “innocent,” ’80s-like America, are precisely what paved the way for America’s dramatic rightward shift.”

Sorry to say, but what “paved the way for America’s dramatic rightward shift” are articles, speeches, behaviours like yours, seeing racism and prejudice everywhere and calling everyone racist because you don’t like a movie or a concept.
