For the past several weeks I've been joining Facebook groups and getting kicked off for stirring them up and in there opinion being a dick on them.
Why some may ask?
To see how serious they are in what they claim to do and believe.
There are at least 20 or 30 with some variation of wording, Zombie Apocalypse Survival, Zombie fighter, usually with zombies and survival combined the question is why?
Zombies have become so common place we see them everywhere, movies, video games, shirts, posters and tv shows.
I've always said any idiot can make a Facebook group but it takes an intelligent person to maintain it and teach with it, so far time and time again people are coming up lacking in knowledge and organizational skill.
The most recent was a FB group out of Australia mostly airchairists who talk big but have no follow through, I was called delusional by one of its female members about the threat of a real zpoc, simply because I believe that the threat of zombie is real, I turned around and explained to her that I'm delusional for believing it, than by her belonging to the group and still staying that by her own opinion that she would also be delusional.
To say the least when called out on there own bullshit people get angry and defensive.
One of the first groups I was kicked out of in less than a day formed a website offshoot known as Z.E.R.T. a supposed zombie prepper and eradication force out of Las Vegas NV they where foolish enough to post there phone and a home address, there fee to join there site was a for the first year was $39.95 and the same price the second year and the third year the same price as well, and oddly enough the fourth year left blank, shock gasp and awe could year 4 be a fee of $39.95?, the fee buys you per year a blood red stationary printed in black ink a welcome document, a sew on patch, and a few laminated cards and a t-shirt as well as access to there website forum, the package doesn't change much between year 2 and 3 a dog tag, and a key chain.
Pretty much the same pathetic shit you can buy at Walmart for less than that and print off your computer in a few seconds, I've bought a t-shirt that had the words and decals saying zombie hunter with a shotgun and a machete in a cross bones fashion a zombie head and in bold red letters remember to dismember, We payed maybe $5-$7 for it, a sew on patch you can find and buy on amazon for about $4 at the most for something zombie related that's cheap, key chain under a $1 and you can find them in zombie green or what some would call highlighter neon green, and any army, navy store will sell you a blank set of dog tags cheap.
So what are you really paying for? the answer jack and shit, nothing.
Supposedly you are paying for the so called expertise of the forum and website admins, and to be allowed to talk on there. Sorry to say that too is a load of shit, when I took there address and phone number I put the address through google maps the structure was supposed be there headquarters and defensible and impervious to harm according to its admin and man in charge.
While we will name drop groups we won't disclose names of people simply because they are insignificant at what they claim to do, the majority of the groups serve as a joke by the members and admin's own submission, they omit certain details.
Back in 2003 when the zombie craze was still new on the scene a group out of St Louis MS called zombie squad started a website they even included a zombie hotline for spotting zombies, they also promoted what they call cadaver removal services headed by civilians decked out in quasi-military gear, and even made a commercial posted on Youtube showing a hyper obese guy getting out of a Ford with crumbled beer cans falling out onto the lawn and the obese guy heaving himself out and opening his trunk and removing a high powered automatic rifle entering a persons home and firing off a long burst of rifle fire.
Two guys standing outside in suits and ties talking about the "so called" professional services of zombie squad, the owner of the home at the end of the skit it presented with a large bill for thousands of dollars.
Sadly they have grown in popularity simply based on the fact they do blood drives and help the community, there original purpose long gone.
The fact that I present all these different Facebook groups with the reality of what a zpoc will encompass step by step.
1)The initial start of the infection, and those will be likely to get majorly infected first Local and state law enforcement, Fire and rescue, EMT's and first responders, and than the nursing staff and doctors in hospitals and clinics.
2) Potentially city sanitation works and utilities workers, if you work in the city outside you might get infected.
3) Aside from a patient zero where ever it come from the ones who where out there would accidentally bring home the infection in there family and loved ones as people are not going to realize what is going on.
4) A few weeks go by infection spreads wider it becomes more noticeable and people start to see what the infection does to the population.
5) Individuals supplies start to dwindle and pantries start to go empty, at that point, a persons mentality changes into look out for number one and what does my neighbor have that I can get.
6) The urge to take, steal, or kill just to survive day by day even if the person you kill was your next door neighbor, a trip to the store is met with looting, rioting and scavenging for a can of food.
7) By this time martial law has been affect and waking up and surviving become difficult.
8) The infected outnumber the living and you not only have to deal with the savage human element but the zombies as well.
9) The time for zombies is on the rise and humanity is now a minority, those who have survived have made there fortifications and are slowly picking up what remains of minor supplies, food, weapons, ammo, and finally breeding or slave labor for stress relief.
10) Welcome to the End of the World! Enjoy...
Do you see the reality yet, and if not when will you?
