I believe many people carry with them a deeply buried desire to hurt people, but their morals keep them from doing it to just anyone. But they yearn for a chance to do it without moral repercussions.
Yeah that's what zombies are for. It's why they're popular.
You are probably right. And nazi zombies even more so.
You don't get to be the apex predator spread around the whole world without a love for violence ingrained deep inside the species hearts.
So, agree more or less. But also I think the desire can be nuanced, like personally I don't want to just commit random violence but I do wish some folks would get hurt or killed. I think it's like that for most of us.
I believe we are looking at it from different directions. You say people want to enact revenge on bad people, sometimes violently. I say people want to be violent and hope for someone bad to appear, so can do it without moral repercussions.
