In memory of Theodore Kaczynski.
"Readable" book "Industrial Society And Its Future" with full copy of original text;
Our society tends to regard as a sickness any mode of thought or behavior that is inconvenient for the system and this is plausible because when an individual doesn't fit into the system it causes pain to the individual as well as problems for the system. Thus the manipulation of an individual to adjust him to the system is seen as a cure for a sickness and therefore as good.
EXPLANATION
................................................................................................
To avoid future misunderstandings: I'm in no way agree with violence and crime activity which was done by this person. And in no way such behaviour should be praised or glorified.
But, as already many times in human species history were observed by other people, I think we should examine and try to study/understand any piece of art (whether literature, videogame, movie, music, any kind of performance, essay and etc.) "apart" from the original creator and his biography. It's not always good, but with Ted "Unabomber" Kaczynski everything isn't as simple as it could've been seen at the first glance.
And this piece of theoretical project by Kaczynski has changed my perspective on many things in life, since my first introduction to his "manifesto" back in 2013. It doesn't matter what political, societal, philosophical or religious "band" you chose, but many things that Theodore described and anticipated about next "human species crisis" in the end of the last century, actually were rapidly evolved and developed within last 10-15 years.
So, my modification is just a little "gratitude letter" and part of somewhat "digital immortalisation" philosophy which I support.
WHAT TO EXPECT
..................................................................................
"Readable" book "Industrial Society And Its Future" with full copy of original text;
For "Lore-Friendly" users like me: Let's just say that some scavenger accidentally dropped this book while running away from Super Mutants.
More so I really think that projects like this could have been written by different political activists in Fallout timeline.
HOW TO INSTALL
..................................................................................
This mod was done with the help from lStewieAl's "Book Menu Restored" resource pack.
So, you will need this utility and FOSE to use restored function of "usable" books.
As for my mod, everything as usual:
1) Place the .esp in the Data folder of the game
2) Activate TTUnabombManifesto ESP file and run the game.
Requirements: FOSE and "Book Menu Restored"
HOW TO FIND/USE
..................................................................................
One copy can be found in Roosevelt Academy Library interior, right on the first table near the entrance door.
Detailed location in "Images" section on this page.
To use book just press "E" and select "Take" after initial "activation" to put this copy in your inventory.
BUGS AND CONFLICTS
..................................................................................
Everything should work as intended with any plugins load-out.
But, because it's a really long material, you'll have to wait for processing of text everytime.
So, don't be afraid, your game isn't going to CtD. Around 15-30 seconds (maybe longer) to play next page or select copy for the first time in Roosevelt Academy.
