It is a well-known fact among Zombie Rights Activists, though not in the general population, that Zombies of all stripes are generally capable of learning, even if they are (temporarily, we hope) impaired by the death-Undeath transition.

It has been a staple of George Romero’s work for decades; John Russo agreed, in Return of the Living Dead.

But amongst the public, it is widely and erroneously assumed that a: Zombies are ‘dumb’, and b: Zombies cannot get smarter.

So it’s a bit heartening to see someone else who has become aware of even the highly-distorted view of reality presented by the media.

It’s a pity that this does not necessarily make people question their dislike of Zombies, though. Case in point, this comic from Ctrl+Alt+Delete.

The ZRC has gone out on a limb to defend Zombie pornography, so we are hardly in a position to disclaim Zombie strippers. Nor would we want to. So mocking Zombie strippers isn’t exactly Zombie Friendly.

Still, spreading the word that Zombies can learn means it isn’t all bad.
