I seriously believe this to be true. People watch this zombie shite and think every illness is going to be The Plague that ends civilization as we know it, and that they, personally, are Rick.

No, it comes from people who watch too much news and then search the internet with no understanding of anything.

You can also blame websites like infowars and drudgereport. Reading people comments on the articles on that website is entertainment itself.

Too many retards have bred prolifically over the past umpteen years; I would argue these are the people feeding into the hysteria.

I don't really see the connection between the two. People ingeneral get paranoid about events like this. Do you not remember "mad cow disease"?

Ill admit that a 24/7 news cycle & social media is fueling a bit of the paranoia.

I agree, this zombiemania is out of control. The idea of dead people returning as zombies and hunting humans to eat their brains or whatever is absolutely ridiculous, yet people actually believe that shite.
