Why Western societies are so obsessed with the concept of a zombie apocalypse to the extreme extent that entire franchises are built around this imaginary event?
Is it deeply rooted inside your cultures or is it a recently emerged obsession - a future programming by (((the elites))) perhaps? Asking because this whole thing is non-existant in Eastern Europe and Asia, people couldn’t really care less and nobody finds it entertaining here.

Why are russians so obsessed with sniffing glue, shooting krokodil up their toe nails and having their wives fuck churkas?
What are political implications of that?

Wow, a degenerate mutt shill from Churkistan. Oh noes, somebody said something about Murica, I better act now!

the zombie fixation seems to be a subliminal reactive fear of the stranger, the flesh eating zombie hordes represent the mass migrating subhuman races descending on European lands and laying waste to civilisation. A fear that is manifesting across sacred Europa.

our cultural anxiety comes from invisible enemies. war across the atlantic/pacific, faceless corporations, the government, inflation, our boss’s boss’s boss that decided to lay us off, covid, mercury in our fish, carcinogenic chemicals in our air and water etc etc. zombies are unequivocally evil beings that you can see and touch and shoot. you don’t even have to feel bad about killing them since they’re just monsters that look like people. your concerns in a zombie apocalypse become food, water, ammo, medical supplies, your family and friends. simple physical things. the kind of things our ape brains evolved to handle.

It’s a deep set desire to see the system collapse and be destroyed

Being alone against a large, hostile group draws upon an innate fear most people stemming from civilizations who experienced winters developed.

What is resident evil? It's a thing around the world. Not in Eastern Europe and central Asia because you don't make movies and games.

The Zombie symbolizes the breakdown of social order. The end of civilization and the decent into animalistic behavior.
If your country has never experienced civilization I can see how this fear would be hard for an ignorant animal to understand.

Is it any wonder that a civilization which faces rapid societal decline in every way imaginable would create allegories which reflect reality?

ITT: too many fucking platos
keep it simple
It's a simple "common enemy" that multiple groups of protagonists can band together and fight against.
Don't have to justify any of the enemies motives: they are alrdy dead and they want to eat you ez bad guys.
Can easily create bad ass situation for "normal every day people" to look like terminator.
Super easy underdog stories
>I was a loser before the apocalypse but now I am super bad ass and I kill zombies for breakfast HIYAAAAA
So reltable
TLDR: zoimbie shit is easy and safe to write.

because we want to shoot stuff

People hate wagecucking so much, that they'd rather live in a world where they'd be forced to learn how to survive. Also in a zombie apocalypse money becomes worthless. You don't pay for stuff, you just find it and take it. And since most people are zombies, theres an abundance of consumables and other stuff

oh yeah don't forget these types of characters:
>this very unquie and rare skill that I practiced for years finally comes in handy, I am so smart and clever and finally spreading my wings to be COOOOOL
