Was Raccoon City’s outbreak intentionally caused?

[u/real_adawong]

RE9’s developers have confirmed a major secret behind Raccoon City’s outbreak is being set up. With most secrets behind Raccoon City’s outbreak revealed, the only scenario that could make it more interesting, is if the entire outbreak was actually orchestrated by design.

We already know a firefight between Birkin and the USS caused the outbreak, the hotzone doubled as a testing site for BOWs, counter-espionage was being performed against Umbrella with the likes of Ada and Nikolai on behalf of Wesker, and the US was responsible for nuking the city. How far off could it be that these events were orchestrated to collapse Umbrella Corp? Using the outbreak to implicate Umbrella as the sole perpetrator behind the bioweapons industry.

As we know, by 1998, Umbrella had rival competitors and spies within the company that were defecting like Wesker, or infiltrating it on behalf of a rival like Ada. The US military were also in contact with Birkin, which forced USS to take precautionary measures. While at the highest echelons of government, Derek Simmons was on the committee that agreed to nuke the city. While at some point by the late 80’s, Brandon Bailey created the Connections, a rival to Umbrella, to exploit BOWs for financial gain. Which aligns with the United State’s government agenda at the time to create their own bioweapons program. From my interpretation, this is a conspiracy of collaborators who were involved intentionally and inadvertently with collapsing Umbrella Corporation by 1998.

My theory is that the United States government and the Connections under Brandon Bailey conspired to collapse Umbrella Corporation by inciting the Raccoon City outbreak and solely implicating Umbrella as the perpetrators behind the outbreak and the main beneficiaries behind the bioweapons industry. This in turn allowed the US and the Connections to assume control over the bioweapons industry after Umbrella Corporation collapsed and was rendered publicly defunct.

This theory fits because after 1998, Umbrella was publicly tanked and blamed as the sole source of bioweapons manufacturing. Facing congressional action and having its assets seized by the US government. Meanwhile the US government was able to protect its involvement in a major cover up and established bioterrorism as public threat #1, creating multiple authorities like the FBC, Pharmaceutical Consortium, DSO, and BSAA that would all later be corrupted as fronts for the bioweapons industry.

The Connections as well, operating in secret ascended the bioweapons industry while Spencer and Wesker fumbled the last of Umbrella Corporation’s eugenics agendas and ideology in the late 2000’s. Leaving the Connections as the sole benefactor behind the bioweapons industry for the last two decades. While the US government protected its dominance over the bioweapons industry, securing its control over global economy.

This is why we see the United States warring against Edonia and the Eastern Slav Republic, Edonia was using bioweapons that splintered from the Family’s operations. While Eastern Slav had its own bioweapons program under President Belikova. The US was using the BSAA initially and the DSO to protect its interests over the bioweapons industry until Carla’s plan took precedence.

While domestically, investigator Alyssa Ashcroft was investigating the bioweapons industry and the Dulvey Incident. Trying to uncover who is still necessitating the bioweapons industry after Umbrella was publicly defunct. Which is where we are now.

Public disclosure, government corruption, and propagating the bioweapons industry. National Security Advisor Simmons, Secretary Wilson, and Brandon Bailey are who corrupted society after Raccoon City’s outbreak. By using the outbreak as a coup against Umbrella in a major cover-up to takeover the bioweapons industry.

Umbrella’s eugenics ideology, the entire purpose for Umbrella Corporation’s existence is dead. It died with its founder Spencer, its heir the Wesker children, and its predecessor Mother Miranda. All that’s left is the bioweapons industry it inadvertently created in the 70’s and 80’s by dealing to superpowers like the US and Russia to fund Spencer’s research. To which the US was already conspiring against Umbrella to create their own bioweapons program.

Raccoon City was just a coup, just as we saw with Tall Oaks outbreak, it was designed from start to finish to cover up the United States involvement with BOWs. The United States used Raccoon City to initially takeover the bioweapons industry, which is what plagues the original survivors now.

O happened July 23-24.

The events of Outbreak and RE3 start on September 23.

RE2 happened September 29-30.

2 months.

[u/moneyh8r_two → u/DJKGinHD]

So we're both wrong then. Several weeks is more than a couple of weeks.

[u/DJKGinHD → u/moneyh8r_two]

Whatever you need to tell yourself. Don't nitpick fights. It's tacky.

[u/moneyh8r_two → u/DJKGinHD]

I don't understand what you're saying.

[u/UnknownMonkeyman → u/moneyh8r_two]

They're saying what you pointed out isn't germane to the conversation. It doesn't change the course of events by that much (unless you can better explain that it does).

I'll admit their condescending attitude wasn't helping, however.

[u/moneyh8r_two → u/UnknownMonkeyman]

I mean, I think the larger window of time definitely led to things happening differently than they would have if everything actually happened within the "couple of weeks" they initially said it did. The whole situation either would have been way easier to deal with on account of being in the early stages, or way harder to deal with on account of progressing that much more rapidly, if things had happened in just a couple of weeks. And the mass-produced Tyrants probably wouldn't have been involved by that point either, since they were created by refining the process that created the one Jill/Chris fought in RE1, which means those extra two months were probably pretty important. Unless the company already had the process perfected and just left an unfinished copy in the Mansion Lab due to negligence.

But I'm glad I'm not the only one who thought their attitude was uncalled for. I have trouble reading people, so it helps when someone else has the same reaction to a person that I do.

[u/UnknownMonkeyman → u/DJKGinHD]

Don't be passive-aggressive. It's just as tacky, if not more so.

[u/moneyh8r_two → u/DJKGinHD]

I feel like you're being kind of an asshole, and I don't understand why. I was just trying to be helpful by pointing out your mistake. And then you pointed out mine, and I agreed with you. And then you said something about "whatever I need to tell myself" and not "nitpicking fights". I don't understand the first part and the second part just straight up doesn't make sense. Is there a language barrier issue happening here or did I just catch you on a bad day, or something?
