This is what I thought. Can someone explain to me how believers in
zombies motivate that other people are not zombies? They must point to a
clear criterion and say this is "not zombie", and lacking that, you are
a zombie.

It seems to me the only non-zombie there can ever be with that point of
view, is oneself.

Best regards,
