Would you be friendly or hostile in a zombie apocalypse (lemmy.world)

Guess this is an ad hoc poll for where on the spectrum would you be on the zombie apocalypse, but I do expect halo effect to alter the results.

The question is would you be hostile or friendly to other survivors you come across if they had no recourse for their actions

The main assumption is that You have the inherent resistance to the plague so that way you can you can start in a heavily populated area and make your way out or live in there.

I would be curious if people would hide away for the rest of their lives in a cabin in the woods.

Assuming I've already lost all friends/family then yeah, a cabin in the woods fending for myself sounds nice. Otherwise all things considered I'd try to be the friendly type, having more people in your group is usually better than being solo.

But all that probably means I'd die in the first year LOL. Most likely wouldn't cut it being alone and starting out I'd probably have the bad luck of picking the wrong type of "friends". To really stick it out in that sort of situation you probably have to manage to survive through a few groups of people starting out until you end up with a stable group of people willing to work together.
