    i get the "less educated" and "without values" part but where does depression play into the zombie stereotype, depression implies the existence of conscious human thought processes, what a shit journalist

      They're picturing a depressed person as a nihilistic killjoy that doesn't want to do anything and lives without a purpose, I'm assuming.

        "lets make everyone miserable by fucking the economy, fucking the planet, killing millions of filthy poors each year and then demonize our labor force in the media for having an adverse reaction to this!"

        That's really fucking rich, considering most nihilists I run into want to gobble treats while performatively not caring about anything and effectively living without purpose. Someone being depressed probably cares enough about something that it hurts compared to that, while the apathy enjoyer continually buries such disquiet under consumer products.
