      Addicted or homeless people are still people and deserve ethical consideration, while zombies are in most of fiction dead and thus require considerably less consideration. Hostility towards homeless people is classism. Equating marginalised people to fictional horrors like zombies is hostile.

        I feel like you’re choosing to be offended. No one is saying we should go kill homeless people. The joke is that he mistook the homeless meth-head for a zombie. If you’ve seen severe drug abuse, you know what that looks like.

          Don’t try arguing with these people. They’ve never had to deal with someone in a meth fueled psychosis where the slightest movement can be perceived as some kind of taunt or challenge to them.
