Things Biden and the Democrats did, this week #23

June 14-21 2024.

On the 12th anniversary of President Obama's DACA program President Biden announced a new pathway to legal status and eventual citizenship for Dreamers. DACA was an executive action by President Obama which deferred any deportation of persons brought to the US as children without legal status. While DACA allowed Dreamers to work legally in the US for the first time, it didn't give them permanent legal status. Now the Biden administration is streamlining the process for employers to apply for work Visas for Dreamers. With Visas Dreamers will for the first time have legal status, the ability to leave and reenter the US legally, and a pathway to a Green Card and eventual citizenship.

President Biden also announced protections for the undocumented spouses and children of US citizens. The new rule allows the spouse, or step-child of a US citizen to apply for lawful permanent residency without having to leaving the country. It's estimated this will help 500,000 undocumented people married to Americans, and 50,000 children under the age of 21 whose parent is married to an American citizen. Current law forces spouses to leave the United States if they're here illegally and wait and unclear period of probation before being allowed to return, but being allowed back is not assured.

The IRS announced that it'll close a tax loophole used by the ultra rich and corporations and believes it'll raise $50 billion in revenue. Known as a "pass-through" has allowed the rich to move money around to avoid taxes in a move the Treasury is calling a shell-game. Pass-throughs have grown by 70% between 2010 and 2019 and the IRS believes it helped the rich avoid paying $160 billion dollars in taxes during that time. The IRS estimates its crack down on these will raise $50 billion in tax revenue over the next 10 years.

The EPA and Department of Energy announced $850 million to monitor, measure, quantify and reduce methane emissions from the oil and gas sector. Methane is the second most common greenhouse gas, responsible for 1/3rd of the global warming. The funding will focus on helping small operators significantly reduce emissions, as well as help more quickly detect and cap methane leaks from low-producing wells. All this comes after the EPA finalized rules to reduce methane emissions by 80% from oil and gas.

The Biden Administration took steps to protect the nations Old Growth Forests. The move will greatly restrict any logging against the 41 million acres of protected land owned by the federal government. The Administration also touted the 20% of America's forests that are in urban settings as parks and the $1.4 billion invested in their protection through the President���s Investing in America agenda.

The Biden Administration released new rules tying government support for clean energy to good paying jobs. If companies want to qualify for massive tax credits they'll have to offer higher wages and better conditions. This move will push union level wages across the green energy sector.

The Department of Education announced large reductions in student loan payments, and even a pause for some, starting in July. For millions of Americans enrolled in the Biden Administration's SAVE plan, starting in July, monthly payments on loans borrowed for undergraduate will be reduced from 10% to 5% of discretionary income. As the department hasn't been able to fully calculate the change for all borrowers at this point it will pause payment for those it hasn't finalized the formula for and they won't have to make a payment till DoE figures it out. The SAVE plan allows many borrowers to make payments as low as $0 a month toward having their loans forgiven. So far the Biden Administration has forgiven $5.5 billion wiping out the debt of 414,000 people enrolled in SAVE.

The Biden Administration celebrated the 1 Millionth pension protected under the American Rescue Plan. Senator Bob Casey joined Biden Administration officials and Union official to announce that thanks to the Butch Lewis Act passed in 2021 the government would be stepping in to secure the pensions of 103,000 Bakery and Confectionery Union workers which were facing a devastating 45% cut. This brings to 1 million the number of workers and retirees whose pensions have been secured by the Biden Administration, which has supported 83 different pension funds protecting them from an average of 37% cut.

The Department of Energy announced $900 million for the next generation of nuclear power. This investment in Gen III+ Small Modular Reactor will help bring about smaller and more flexible nuclear reactors with smaller footprints. Congress also passed a bill meant to streamline nuclear power and help push on to the 4th generation of reactors

Vice President Harris announced a $1.5 billion dollar aid package to Ukraine. $500 million will go toward repairing Ukraine's devastated energy sector which has been disrupted by Russian bombing. $324 million will go toward emergency energy infrastructure repair. $379 million in humanitarian assistance from the State Department and the U.S. Agency for International Development to help refugees and other people impacted by the war.

America pledged $315 million in new aid for Sudan. Sudan's on-going civil war has lead to nearly apocalyptic conditions in the country. Director of USAID, Samantha Power, warned that Sudan could quickly become the largest famine the world has seen since Ethiopia in the early 1980s when a million people died over 2 years. The US aid includes food and water aid as well as malnutrition screening and treatment for young children.

Bonus: Maryland Governor Wes Moore pardoned more than 175,000 people for marijuana convictions. This mirrors President Biden's pardoning of people convicted of federal marijuana charges in 2022 and December 2023. President Biden is not able to pardon people for state level crimes so called on Governors to copy his action and pardon people in their own state. Wes Moore, a Democrat, was elected in 2022 replacing Republican Larry Hogan.

Here is some hot tea...As always take with a grain of salt. by u/Meegainnyc

Here is some hot tea...As always take with a grain of salt.

I made it text for ease of reading and thanks OP for the scoop! 🧂

THE VIEW FROM THE U.K. I count two Royal reporters as friends. The private view in the U.K. is this:

1. ⁠The Palaces (that is, the institutional faces of the Royal Family) are content that the facts surrounding the Markles slowly but surely come into the public domain with as little "push" as possible from the Palaces. A slow revelation of the facts is considered more powerful and comprehensively final that big leaks which the Markles can counter

2. ⁠The Press in the U.K. is staffed by anti-Monarchists who receive their story feeds from the Markles and play them off against the formal releases to the Royal Rota in the U.K. and elsewher

3. ⁠Archie certainly exists - or, at the very least, a child represented to the Late Queen and Duke of Edinburgh as Archie.

4. ⁠The Late Queen never visited Frogmore Cottage in 2022 and never met any child represented as the daughter of the Markles. She said as too I'll to make such a journey. There is no diary evidence of any meeting whatsoever

5. ⁠The Palaces and the Royal Family collectively are determined never to meet or be in the same place as the Markle woman

6. ⁠The Markle woman's husband is very subtly discouraged from setting foot on any Royal property until he is rid of his for-now wife

7. ⁠The REAL crisis for the Markle woman's husband is a looming tax crunch. By 6 April 2026 he will be non-resident for U.K. tax purposes to the extent that he can return to the U.K. and not pay tax on his American earnings here in the U.K. Alas, he will run out of money before then and the only way he will get any more is if he takes up residence (tax residence) here in the U.K. in order to receive his bequests from Diana/Queen Mother. They CANNIT be paid to an overseas tax resident. Thank you so much this insight. This couple are in a pickle aren't they? Here in the US, in focus is the dodgy business Archewell and it's misappropriating funds & Tax, as well as the other stuff that I have talked about with the US government, if people have been paying attention. There is a reason why the visa info is on hold, but I won't get into right now aside from saying that it is not good, if it turns out to be true. We will have news soon and it most likely be broken by an independent Journalist, international news, and or YouTuber as MSM outlets here in the US will not cover it to avoid diplomacy issues with the UK, and drawing attention of Russia & China for use in foreign propaganda. It's safe to say there are crisis on both sides of the pond looming. These two have made a mess and no doubt Meghan will throw Harry under the bus to save herself when the time comes. James Holt is a fool for taking the liability for Archewell finances as it is only a matter of time before he is called into question.

FYI his stupid birthright citizenship ‘control’ laws will target ‘legal’ migration too. Right wing voters like to say ‘well we’re not unreasonable, we don’t oppose legal migration’ but that’s gone. If you’re a worker or a student on a visa (and many workers will, in fact, be on visas for a long time, a decade even, because the American system for residence—a ‘green card’—is so long that people have been in queue for years), your children born in the US will not be citizens anymore under Trump’s executive order. A child born and raised in the United States, having known no other home, is not going to be a US citizen. This is something that had been protected for decades— one of the requirements to running for president in fact is being a born citizen. Will that also change now, if people fucking born in the United States cannot be citizens of their own country?

I don’t trust right wingers one bit. ‘Oh you’re so unreasonable, you’re so paranoid’, they’ll never acknowledge that this is what republicans meant to do all along. Blur the lines between ‘legal’ and “illegal”. Make it so vague that of course people left to draw their own conclusions will go ‘not white = illegal’. They’ll never claim knowledge of what they’ve done. They’ll never stick to their word and rally to protect ‘legal’ migration, no. That goes against their milk-white christofascist panacea, doesn’t it? It’s just a bonus if everyone else suffers too.

Fight like hell for every child. Fight for every single one like they’re your own. There are no lost causes. There are no children worth leaving behind. There are no ‘illegals’ if you know what’s good for you.

It is so frustrating that the LA Times does not have a gift article option, because this article is an incredible snapshot of the U.S. immigration system from the immigrants' perspective. Everyone should read this.

We live in a country where so many people are living half-lives, lives of deep uncertainty, instability, and fear. Their lives are paralyzed. Every story told in this article is a story I have encountered time and time again.

In the (too) many years I have been working in immigration law, it always stuns me how little American citizens understand about the process and what it takes to become a legal resident here. A friend once said to me, totally sincerely, that before he had met me he thought that the only thing keeping undocumented immigrants from becoming legal was that they didn't want to fill out the paperwork and pay a fee.

In reality, the U.S. immigration system is a sprawling network of laws that have been built one on top of the other to create a labyrinthine process that takes years to navigate and is impossible without expensive legal assistance.

Here is a snapshot of the process from the article:

The U.S. caps the number of permanent employment-based immigrants at 140,000 annually, with no more than 7% allowed from any one country. As a result, people in countries with large numbers of applicants could wait a lifetime. The wait for an employment-based green card for residents of India is 134 years, according to Cato’s estimate, based on government data. A U.S. citizen who wants legal permission for their married adult child to immigrate to the U.S. from Mexico would have to wait 160 years at the current rate of approval.

One of the more recent developments I have observed since the Trump administration is a growing fear among people who have already successfully navigated the process that their status--even among naturalized citizens--continues to be perilous and liable to be snatched away at any given moment.

And this has a real impact on our communities - on our ability to enforce the laws that are supposed to make all of us safe and successful.

About 4 in 10 poll respondents said they had avoided things like talking to the police, applying for a job or traveling out of fear of drawing attention to their status or the status of someone in their family.

I could go on and on about this. I don't have all the solutions, but I would say a good start would be to at least double the number of immigrant visas available annually in all categories. The very least we can do is to stop artificially throttling the process.

The immigrants are already here. They are contributing to our society in enormous ways. They are our colleagues and classmates. They are our neighbors. There is no reason not to give them the true freedom that we all enjoy and take for granted.

This is the so-called birthright citizenship executive order. It's actually a little narrower and broader than that term at the same time, and (much as I hate to admit it), it's actually pretty cleverly structured, which just makes it that much more dangerous.

(To be clear: I'm not a lawyer, just someone who's read a bit about these things on the internet and tries to think them through logically. If you think you might be affected, get a real one.)

Birthright citizenship is the idea that, if you're born in America, you're automatically a U.S. citizen. It doesn't matter if your parents are undocumented or if you leave the country days after being born, you're a U.S. citizen for life. It's also extremely well documented both in the U.S. Constitution, particularly the Fourteenth Amendment, and in a series of SCOTUS decisions (because: racism). So what exactly is Trump going on about here?

Option #1: It's a cheap shot to make his base happy and say he kept his promise. Or option #2: he thinks the current SCOTUS is his to command and expects them to ignore their own precedent and say the Constitution doesn't mean what it clearly does. I wouldn't put it past him or them, but this EO is structured pretty peculiarly, and I'm not sure that's an accident.

The Fourteenth Amendment actually says "All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State in which they reside," and it's that "and subject to the jurisdiction thereof" bit that usually gets conservatives all hot and bothered. They argue if someone doesn't have a legal right to be here how could they possibly be under US jurisdiction?

But if you commit a crime in the US, even if you're an undocumented immigrant, they still send you to jail, and the same Constitutional protections (right to a lawyer, right against warrantless searches, etc.) still apply. What this clause is pointing to (per the analysis at congress.gov) are people who fall under another country's sovereignty. A child of another country's ambassador, say, or if his parents were "alien enemies in hostile occupation," like an invading foreign military. Members of independent Native American tries once fell in that category, too, though that changed under Elk v. Wilkins in the late 1800s. The point is they all fall under another nation's sovereignty. This is also why diplomats usually can't be prosecuted for violating American law, even compelled to pay parking tickets. Or at an international level (& here I remind you, I'm an interested student but not an actual lawyer, etc.), why a Russian soldier in Ukraine probably couldn't be prosecuted for violating Ukraine civil law (though violations of international law might be different).

So, getting back to Trump's executive order. The EO describes the 14th Amendment as a repudiation of Dred Scott (true, as far as I know), so only meant to grant citizenship to African-Americans (ehhh...; see US v. Wong Kim Ark, for instance). It claims this means people born in the US but whose parents aren't here legally, or even if their parents are on temporary visas or other temporary permissions, don't qualify for birthright citizenship (double ehhh). And importantly, it only applies to people born here in the future.

Remember that Trump's described the situation at the Mexico border as an invasion. I think that's in one of his EO's, certainly it's all over his rhetoric, and not just immigration through Mexico. And remember that invading foreign military don't qualify as "subject to the jurisdiction thereof."

Whenever I hear this EO discussed on the news, it's always in the context of Trump either not understanding the amendment or hoping SCOTUS will abandon their own precedent. And as I said, that's not impossible. It would also be quite the legal jump and wildly unpopular, so if you think anyone on the court is concerned about their perceived legitimacy might think twice about baldly doing that. They'd probably want a justification of some sort, even if it's a fig-leaf.

But if the president is labelling the parents as part of a foreign invasion, and the child's born to them during the time they're acting as foreign invaders? That strikes me as one hell of a fig-leaf. And I don't want to panic, much less give the MAGA legal team any ideas. But if SCOTUS agrees and all Trump or the current president has to do is keep describing immigrants as an invasion? That's rather terrifying.

& I didn't even talk about how this applies not just to undocumented immigrants but people here legally, but temporarily. Just thinking about that has me all kinds of upset, so I'm not going to go there. But this EO sucks muchly on that point, too.

I apologise if this is invasive but, do you have a job in Japan? If so, what is it? (curious if it's the classic english teach route)

Hey, no worries ✌️

I work in data administration, and I'm an office admin at a studio in Vancouver, BC. But since I can work remotely, I can still do my job while I'm in Japan. So I don't have a job at a Japanese company (I work at home from our place in Nara) but I'm cleared to work from within the country. This is the kind of thing that a digital nomad Visa would be used for.

I'm also going to be starting a self-employed, at-home business next year. Not all Visas allow this, so if you want to pursue something like self-employment or freelancing in Japan then you need to make sure you have the appropriate Visa.

My partner does work in Japan, thanks to his company having a few different international branches (one of which is based in Osaka) which gave him the initial opportunity to pursue a residency and working Visa in the country. And since we're married, I was eligible for a spousal Visa.

If you want to work in Japan (and you don't already have any pre-existing job opportunities, like my partner did,) then applying to be an English Teacher is the most common method that the majority of people go for. There's many different programs for English teachers (and a lot of the time applicants aren't required to have high Japanese proficiency)

Another option is child care, since a lot of daycare programs and families want care providers who speak English and/or can teach English to their young kids. This is harder to get into, though.

RP anyone?

Interested in some roleplays. I'm mostly into sports anime, but there's a few others I'd be interested in as well. I'm a 30 y/o M (ftm), so please be at least 21+. I've got about fifteen years of RP experience, but that doesn't mean I'm an expert or write these super long posts. Characters are aged up to legal adults (so college on)

Post lengths range from a couple lines to a paragraph or two (give or take). Some posts may be longer, but I'm by no means a novella writer. And despite the fact that English is my first language (and only), sometimes my English and Grammar skills lack.

I personally write OC's, and am happy to write with well fleshed OC's as well, so long as they're not overpowered. You can also write as canon characters as well, either is fine with me!

RP's I'd possibly be interested in are as follows. I'll also give brief info on each OC. Keep in mind MOST my Oc's typically hail from outside of Japan (transfer students turned permanent resident or on student visa, or just live outside of Japan). Many also have some form of health issue/disability, but they DO NOT have to, as their character does not revolve around it. There are a tiny handful of exceptions to this however. They're also all gay.

Health issues will be marked with (HI) and can be discussed in private.

Free!: One OC, Samuel Anderson (HI), a backstroke swimmer from Brisbane, Australia. His ears are deformed and lives with severe hearing loss, though has hearing aids that makes it manageable. He does have a bit of a dark past that has made his career as a swimmer complicated. (I'm caught up with this series except for the last two "episodes")

My Hero Academia: Two Oc's. Keiji Okada and Kaito Amari. Keiji can melt into shadows taking small loads with him (and people for VERY short periods of time), and Kaito is a double amputee who can transform into a white wolf. (Caught up with the Anime)

Haikyuu: Three Oc's: Morgan Lewis, who hails from Ireland. Adopted into his family and has setter and middle blocker skills. Morgan also suffers with some mental issues, nothing super drastic that isn't being managed.

James O'Malley, who hails from England and has middle blocker skills. He stutters. He can sing perfectly fine (and is quite good at it), but he can't get a full spoken sentence out without it taking a bit. Communicates via texts / notepad mostly. Does know sign language.

Kegan Williams, who hails from Alaska, USA. This is a FtM character who doesn't play past high school due to their gender identity and the complications that come with it. He specializes as a setter however. He suffers with a lot of gender dysphoria. (I'm not caught up with this series in either format, but spoilers are AoK!)

86: Eighty Six: Kyoji Natsumo "FrostWind". San Magnolia 86 Soldier who serves as a mechanic for the Spearhead Squadron. Covered in burn scars and is missing his right leg from a mission prior to arriving at Spearhead. Very quiet and doesn't really socialize. (Caught up with the anime, up to volume eight or nine I believe for the Light Novel)

Soul Eater: Lukas Jorgenson, a Meister. Honestly he's not really into it, but his parents made him attend the academy. He specializes in long weapons such as spears. (Caught up with the original Anime, but not the spin off or the manga)

Yuri on Ice: Antoine "Anthony" Dubois, a blind skater from Canada. He travels with his sister who competes professionally. He himself can skate but it's not at a competitive level.

Andy Davis, a professional skater from Australia. Not a big name and honestly doesn't really touch the skill level required for the Grand Prix, but it doesn't stop him from trying. (Caught up on this series)

Fruits Basket: Ufuru Sohma, a next gen OC (year of the dog), or could just be a family member. (100% caught up on this series)

Harry Potter: Shane Morris. Distant relative of Newt Scamander, though doesn't know it as he's the child of a child of a squib and a muggle. Very skilled with magical creatures.

Percy Jackson: Alex O'Connor, son of Apollo and an irish woman who moved to Montana to live with her husband on a ranch.

Morgan Hofler, son of Athena and a university professor. (seen the movies, read all the books except for the second and onward of the new college series for Percy Jackson. Have not seen past meeting Medusa on the TV series)

Pokemon: Jack Reeve, a Pokemon trainer from the Alolan Region. Specializes in Canine Type Pokemon. (I've played all the games and seen all the TV series.)

I also have some non series related OC's

Lance Neilson, an AKC Dog Show/Field Handler specializing in Brittanys.

Jackson Matthews, a College student aiming to be a vet.

Caleb Mitchell, a Horse Jockey.

Peter Kramer, a German College Student who was a competitive diver until an accident took the use of his legs.

Lt. Franklin "Troller" Marshall, a Navy Fighter Pilot.

and Taylor Martin, a Rodeo Bulldogger.

If anyone's interested, please send me a message! I RP on Discord, but would like to chat here first to make sure we're on the same page, first!

I look at photos of "Ukrainians" evacuated from Gaza and remember our former consul in Dubai. I adore him. The most in the world he hated Muscovites, Syrians, and Egyptians with forged Ukrainian passports. In second place, he hated women who came to the consulate for a certificate of marital status because they were going to marry Syrians, Palestinians, or Egyptians.

After the traditional greeting, "Are you stupid?" there was an obligatory conversation about, "You will come to me again in a year, wearing a hijab and sobbing that the child is being taken away." 50% came in a year wearing a hijab and wrote statements that a child was being taken away from a Ukrainian citizen, the rest came in the second year.

The most spectacular case was a woman who brought her child's Jordanian passport and demanded that the Ukrainian be returned to her. The child did not have a Ukrainian passport because she did not need one, and they did not make it. But the child is UKRAINIAN!!!!! Help, Mr. Consul, we have rights!!!

He told her that until she brings him a passport of a citizen of Ukraine with a residence visa pasted there, she is not in his jurisdiction at all and can apply to the Jordanian consulate. "Are you normal at all?" said the woman and began scribbling complaints to Ministry of International Affairs.

I remember a case when a Ukrainian woman came to demand "to prevent her husband from obtaining Ukrainian citizenship", because they found out that he has another family in Syria, and he just wanted a Ukrainian passport, so he got married, gave her a child, and actually planed to transport from Syria his first family with 3 children and therefore applied for citizenship without her knowledge. Because when she got married, she didn't know about the second family, and that's why she doesn't want a passport for him now)))))

If anyone is wondering how this case ended, the dude didn't get a Ukrainian passport because he died suddenly. He had a heart attack. In Syria, when he went to his second family. His Ukrainian wife cried a lot. She wrote him poems about eternal love and an image forever in the memory in the heart. And she got married a second time. For a citizen of Egypt, but 20 years younger than the first husband. They live in Brazil as war refugees.

A separate category was made up of Ukrainian women who came with their children's Syrian and Egyptian passports and demanded visas for their children. The consul explained that you just need to make a Ukrainian passport for the child. Because according to the law, a child born to a citizen of Ukraine is a citizen of Ukraine, and it is stupid to issue a visa to Ukraine to a citizen of Ukraine!!!! But they said "fuuuuuu nooooo who needs it".

The most difficult case was the case of a Ukrainian woman who worked in Jordan, got married there, and gave birth to a child. Her husband beat her, so one day she took the child and went to Ukraine, and four years later, she signed a work contract in Dubai, where she was arrested by Interpol right at the airport. It was very difficult for the consul to get permission to visit, because it turned out that all these 4 years she was wanted internationally for kidnapping. The husband woke up and found neither his wife nor his child. And turned to Interpol. The girl's mother went to all ministries and wrote down complaints.

The ministries transferred the complaint to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, and they wrote a demand to the Consulate "to prevent the extradition of a citizen of Ukraine to Jordan." The consul submitted a note to the Ministry of Internal Affairs of the Emirates. There they said, Ukrainians are you fucking crazy???? Do you mind, that they are still married and he is looking for his wife?? When the Consul asked this question to the woman, she said: "T'hu!!! Was it marriage? We just stayed in the mosque for a little while. It doesn't count, and it was a joke in general. I do not consider myself married. He insulted me." That day the Consul bursted out. He said he couldn't do it anymore. This is pyzda and he will go to ATO. About how he mobilized after the start of the full-scale and to which brigade I will never say even under tortures.)))))

By the way, the standard "you will come to speak in a hijab" always had a standard answer: "Oh well, you know... But he is completely different, not like other traditionalists. He's from a good family. You don't know him at all. My Mohammed is Different."

By the way, after the start of full-scale worlwide problems, the new consul's job became much less stressful. Because all the Syrians, Jews and Palestinians en masse made Canadian visas, like Ukrainian refugees, and went to Canada.

Well, to be objective, I do know one case of a marriage between a Ukrainian woman and a Syrian man, where the woman was the queen. And not just as a queen, this woman came to her husband's family once a year with an inspection from Lviv, where she and her husband lived, and made the whole family dance. "Everyone dances"!!!! The man, as a proud eastern testosterone alpha male, realized that the only way to crawl out from under that heel is to the grave. He did it when he got cancer. That's why. International marriages of distant cultures are possible. But they need a special character from a woman. Ukrainian women demonstrate such traits, unfortunately, rarely.

I randomly decided to watch the intro for the 2004 Dawn of the Dead, and after watching the original, and also doing a read on the Raccoon City Destruction Incident from Resident Evil, I do very much feel that the latter two (disregarding the latter's use of the Umbrella Corps B.O.Ws) make for a more compelling and scarier zombie outbreak, and story regarding zombies in general.

Like, in the original Dawn of the Dead, there's the scene where the SWAT raid a tenement building where the people inside have been keeping their undead instead of handing them over to the authorities to be disposed of. Now, this highlights a good bit of the human factor since these people just... don't know what to do. Their relatives, their loved ones are dead... but also, they're not dead. But they can't kill them! It would be hard for a loving wife or husband to kill their spouse, or a parent to kill their child or visa versa. So, this creates a source of tension, which then spirals out of control as the SWAT enter, and because of the general breakdown of good societal order, one SWAT member goes berserk and just starts gunning innocent people down, thus then creating the potential for more undead to arise (I do subscribe to the theory in the film that the outbreak is because of something other-worldly; the "no more room in hell" speech), which then forces his fellow cops to shoot him, thus creating more chaos and break down, before some members just desert.

And then we have Resident Evil, which while approaching from the other and more fantastical covers an equal element that, before it was known that Umbrella Corps was behind the outbreak with their T-Virus, no-one had a clue what was going on. It was reports of cannibalistic attacks and random murders, people disappearing in the mountains around. Then, when the virus entered the city, it was first known as monsters appearing in the city. Then it became people being affected by an unknown disease as the hospital became swamped with patients and calls to police escalated as random acts of violence and even so-called 'riots' began to spread across the city until *BOOM* zombie outbreak. And also, throughout this process, the Raccoon City police, the fire department and the hospital are still doing what they can to help the citizens of the city. The firefighters were still trying to put out fires, the police were still trying to evacuate people to possible safe zones, and the hospital staff were doing their best to try and find a possible cure to this unknown virus.

And all of these match the zombies: it's a slow process. It's not instantaneous, it doesn't just happen overnight. It's a slow build, a kind of tipping scale as the numbers of zombies go up, society spirals downwards.

In the Dawn of the Dead remake... yes, we see A collapse of society with the news footage at the beginning, which is a part I actually enjoyed, especially the dialogue of:

Reporter: Is this an international health hazard or a military concern? CDC guy: Both. Reporter: Are these people alive or dead? CDC guy: *pauses* We don't know.

And then the film starts proper... and there's nothing. No news about it, no-one talking about it, no-one commenting on it. It just... happens. it's fast, it's slick, it's gorey and bloody. And that's all the remake has going for it.

It's horrifying, but it's not horror.

Don't quite know what prompted me to make this but there we go.
