I'm imagining up a world where, through incredible science, the soviets successfully develop genetic engineering, the west develop psychic powers, and such things. Lots of inspiration from the metal gear solid series. I want to include some cool interesting real life people, like Ted Kaczynski, and make them even more interesting, like him becoming president or something. Then I also need cool locations, like an east german state run gay disco club. Any suggestions?

    You could use it to deconstruct the Tianamen Square protests (or create something similar)- if they're psychic they might just give off a "vibe" that people don't trust outside the West and therefore can't gain support for Operation Yellowbird, "pro-western democracy" type views, so you can present the narrative of people being against Deng's reforms rather than flatly anti-communist.

    Also you should have some "anti-psycher" tech in there.
