"Profound Bigotry from Zeeke and the Zombies"

It's getting harder and harder to tell the Zombies apart these days. More and more they focus their ugliness on various forms of bigotry (racism, anti-Semitism, misogyny, socio-economic class, handicap, etc.)

It started, of course, with Zeeke's virulent words, such as "cocksuckingfagjewbitch." Over time he managed to attract a rag tag group of other ugly bigots including some notable mainly for N-Word Bombs (Pikle and Vomit), and others who mostly just me-too including Bak, Jack, and SamBow. At one time, I thought it was just the males, but I changed my mind on that when I saw Beth call Takoma an "injun" and "half-breed" and labeled me as Jewish. (I thought Beth was better than that.... oh well.)

It's easy to imagine how this bonding develops over time. A Zombiewannabe IMs Zeeke: "I hate those ______, too! Can I join your cult?"

I'm beginning to think that ugly bigotry is about *all* they share, or that it's at least a critical feature. They seem to have little else in common. And such ugliness is about all they say together in the room, except for occasional forays when the room is almost dead into "car chat" between the guys or "chick chat" between the gals.

And it's always fun watching their contortions when one spews something like "Fatgurlz" or "blob" and then rapidly backtracks to say he didn't mean so-and-so Zombie. Or when they make some blanket anti-Semitic remark, realize too late that Res Lend is there, and then have to stumble thru saying that he's a "Good jew."

I suspect that their ugly bigotry is also a core reason why they remain a small clique with declining influence. Normal, mature adults understand that bigotry is, as George Will once said, "a stench in the nostrils of reasonable people." And the common reaction to it is to avoid further contact with such people. I mean, who really wants to defend being a BFF with someone who spews such ignorance and hatred?
