It lacks reality.

Whenever there is a minor crisis, compared to when the world turns into a crisis, the first priority is clean water and food. After a few days clean water would have run out and any water found would have to be boiled.

Without farming, tinned foods would run and farming would be the second priority. Back in the days of people living like this they only fought wars when the men weren't needed on the farms. Supporting a community like the Saviours would be impossible the way the show is portrayed.

In America, there are 112.6 guns per 100 people. The average guns per gun owner are 8. So finding arms if someone takes them away from you, would be easy.

As for not carrying a shield to fend off walkers, well that's simply stupid. Imagine the damage a shield wall can do against a pack of walkers. Using knives instead of swords is also silly.

Stupid things like cooking cakes, biscuits, pies, etc. Where is the fresh, flour, butter, sugar, dairy goods coming from? Soldiers killed by zombies while they were inside tanks. The last community of losers was just silly.

I can believe a community like the Saviours running large areas. But not the way it's portrayed on the show. The weak ones would end up as serfs just not be left alone to walk away.
