I have no idea how to help you in a broken down society full of hidden zombies. It's obvious that the way zombies are portrayed in the movies isn't real, but in every town there is a hidden zombie in people's hearts, that breaks down society a little bit at a time.
Zombies hidden in plain sight: a soulless shell of a human where respect is only given based on how much money and power is displayed. Some of these hidden zombies are people in charge, and we have no idea why we allowed hidden zombies to attain a management position. Some hidden zombies are your neighbor, saying "[EXPLETIVE] You" at any attempt to have a clean house, because you haven't spent as much money as them. If you haven't displayed as much money and power as a hidden zombies, they will never respect you. It's as if you don't exist. They have the V8 with a HEMI engine, and to them you should not exist in this world. There are far too many people on their high horse today. You'll see them if you look, and I don't know how to properly handle those situations when you're alone. There's no army or security guards to back you up.
The odd thing about hidden zombies is they know how to exactly put on a fake happy persona when the light is shone upon them, or when there's a podium around. What if we had a random crowd full of angry people gather, and chose a person from the audience to stand up at a podium and explain what it's like to take the high road? People who are angry and acting like a hidden zombie suddenly find the ability to shut up. It's amazing, like sunlight on a vampire. There is a real concept of a psychopath, and we choose to ignore it. But when a person is in a position of money or power, the thing you should have avoided at all costs is psychopath behavior. You should not be bought at any price.
It's been said in different ways before, but when the stuff really does hit the fan, we have to come to the reality that respect, honor, dignity, caring, love, and empathy are all going to be thrown out. The smart people such as the STEM graduates are completely ignored regarldless of wisdom and ability. Those very people who help build that technology tree of society are attacked as well. It's completely the wrong way to live, but people have trouble stopping the herd mentality. It's not easy to escape a broken-down society where hidden zombies in charge constantly shove false news and false acts of terror at you, and send fake thieves to your house with far more guns than you have.
What if you broke down your words and actions into categories? Like say, a robot would analyze not your words or text you share with the world, but your actions. Everything not found in a robot's database of basic actions would be stored for later categorization. How does the robot classify taking your own plates from the cupboard at your house and breaking them? How do you classify throwing items at people on the street? Do you hear yourself? Do you even see your own actions? The king of the mountain is not the one who has displayed the most money and power.
Do any of you know how to use a soldering iron, or a ham radio, let alone fix one? BMWs with Torx bolts aren't going to help you in the forest if someone steals your Torx bits. When the stuff really does hit the fan, I'll be glad to help you as neighbor and rebuild the technology-tree we need to maintain our current society, but it'll take a village just to protect us all. In a small village like that trying to rebuild, disrespect has to be punished in some way. Like the quarter in the jar for every time you say a cuss word.
How is the connection to your soul?
Do you know who you are?
How do you act towards someone who steps on your toe?
Do you forgive?
Do you hold grudges for life?
