I've been comparing pro-sufferers to zombies due to their mindless conformity (regarding the sanction of life), how they outnumber pro-choicers and promortalists; their tenacity in pursuing and capturing those attempting suicide; their lack of compassion and empathy towards individuals who wish to end their lives, how they impose the superiority of existence, and the lengths they go to prevent death, especially suicide. The last two points bare similarities to zombification.
At first, I considered how zombies would be the lesser of the two evils. Zombies don't care if humans commit suicide, don't criminalize suicide or euthanasia, force institutionalization or "treatment" for x amount of time until desired compliance, charge thousands of dollars for unwanted/unnecessary "treatment," or manipulate anyone at all. Their only motive is to devour as much fresh (human) flesh as possible. Plus, their moans and groans are far more tolerable than the pro-sufferers' verbal diarrhea of toxic positivity, guilt-tripping, invalidating, berating, and demands.
On the other hand, I thought about the aspects of zombies and zombification portrayed in different folklore and fiction. Suppose zombification was contagious to living and/or freshly dead humans, that zombies cannot die until their bodies are completely destroyed, and/or they retain their capacity to suffer? Given those possible factors, wouldn't the fate of zombification be just as bad as suicide prevention and prohibition of euthanasia?
There's also the disadvantage of zombies dispatching their prey in a violent, slow, and agonizing matter.
Which of these would be the worst to face: pro-sufferers or zombies? What are your thoughts about this?
