   I think a right-wing counterpart to Last Generation could have success organization-wise. like a Brotherhood of Steel type organization with a charismatic leader and a fascist hierarchy, prepping for the downfall of humanity.
   
   (I'm not in favor of such, just thonking)

     Brotherhood of Steel is fascist (at least in Fallout 4) because:
     - strong charismatic leader that did not get chosen, but assumed power
     - leadership cult with everyone considering the leader the perfect warrior
     - only "pure" humans are allowed
     - sickness is seen as otherness, sickness must be eradicated
     - black/white thinking with "if you are not BoS, you must be the enemy!"
     - claim to help society, but mostly just kill people because everyone outside is "impure"
     - want to destroy everyone who has similar power to them (the institute), without being in communication before

     @kaia Any organization like that would be loaded with feds and its members financially crushed to powder under media/NGO pressure, all ending in them being in a metaphorical gulag. Our current surveillance apparatus doesn't allow any sort of right wing organization like that.
