Current Events > Do you think scientific zombies could happen in real life?

(+) Yeah! (+)

not like in Walking Dead. More like Last of Us or 30 Days Later

A science based phenomenon. Maybe some disease that effects the human brain and makes them go into a violent rage they can't escape

Its called conservatism

You mean brainless overly aggressive derelicts only aware of their own existence?

Yeah they're called Trumpers

ba dum tinnng

Absolutely

In fact, I argue that mammals are exactly that. A foreign consciousness highjacking a body.

Rabies symptoms is similar to zombies. Maybe if they made a super rabies virus to make people crazy maniacs, it could be possible.

Remember the one dude who ate bath salts and tried to eat someone? We've came very close to them already.

i think we'll be able to control things through electrical impulses, one day in the future

but i don't think it'll have the results we need to grow as a species. i don't think it'll be useful other than for medical purposes on people who are still alive.

If a disease selectively destroyed the cerebral cortex, you might get something like mindless movement and aggression (see decorticate dogs). Though not sure if anyone would call that a zombie.
