** The peculiar obsession of the Cabots with a "Mysterious Serum" {{spoiler|that's allowed them to live for centuries}} bears more than passing semblance to drug addiction.
** The excuses used by some of the Institute's members on why they shouldn't help Wastelanders are reminiscent of how residents of Western countries waive off supplying foreign aid to developing nations, right down to a few Institute scientists outright stating [[Somebody Else's Problem|"We shouldn't try to think about it, as it's much too depressing to discuss right now."]]
** The Institute's efforts to control the Commonwealth from the shadows, up to and including propping up proxies and creating manufactured crises {{spoiler|such as the Super Mutants}} to keep the region's populace divided are reminiscent of both Cold War-era covert operations the and [[Conspiracy Theories]] involving enigmatic organizations like [[The Illuminati]].

Ruins to simply blow a big hole in it}}.
