I actually think it would be good uniting force for a divided country:

The "it's a hoax" portion of the population will simply become zombies
The "we love guns" portion of the population can now take their life frustrations out on the zombies
The "we need to fix this world" portion of the population will learn to fight too and provide vital aid and supplies to the (likely growing) "we love guns" group
The "we need run away from this madness" portion of the population will just hunker down and play on their smartphones

Either way, everyone kind of wins

I think you're a little off on the "we need to fix this world" guys.

Although zombie films / TV series lean heavily into the action side of things, that's just because it's more entertaining than watching people building things, developing tech, doing scientific research.

Remember with COVID 19? Huge numbers of people immediately set out to find a cure, inventing and deploying ways to prevent and monitor the spread, creating pop-in treatment centres, etc.
