I love Postal 1 because I relate to the sheer schizo paranoia, the deep anxiety and fear mixed with bloodlust, the feel like you're finally liberating the world and letting go off your emotions for the first time since childhood and also liberating the society in some weird way. P1 dude is Ted Kaczynski if he went further. P1 dude is THE anprim representation. He's probably the only media protagonist that spoke to me on a personal level.

I love Postal 2 because it has a funny russian mod that was made in one day by a guy way too drunk on vodka.

[sourestcroutons]

Iť might genuinely just be that I overproject into him, however hear me out: the thing that made him go postal in the first place was his job (therefore the name), which wouldn't be nearly as soul crushing without the work culture being deeply rooted in capitalist work "morale" that puts individual into constant stress and survival. And capitalism started at the industrial revolution (it's more complicated than that I know, but for the sake of the argument), capitalism as the predominant ideology wouldn't be there without it. Also the overall aesthetics of a person pushed so forward by the society he turns into mostly just his primal instincts, aka does an integer overflow move and returns back, is inhrrently anprim to me as the post industrial society is so far away from what is natural, one just becomes a caricature of a hunting animal

I agree with him being anti government, that goes with it for me. Imo P1 dude himself is apolitical (at least not explicitly political) he just hates everyone and everything and the system, but that's the vibe I get from him from the implicit things.

Pls tell me if this makes zero sense, I write this instead of sleeping at 2 AM.

I'd just like to add that since I finally finished Postal 1 a couple of days ago that the text at the very end adds to my interpretation. Lemme cite it real quick for reference:

Population pressure and the stress of modern life may cause an increase in violent tendencies. The urban environment is the incubator for all sorts of undesirable behaviors.

The first two sentences are literally just a rephrasing of Kaczynski's "the industrial society and it's consequences has been a disaster for the human race". The phrasing "urban environtment" hints on that. The urban environtment IS the consequence of the industrial revolution. I'm absolutely not convinced it's intentional, but it's worth noting that Industrial Society and Its Future only predates the release of Postal by 2 years and it has been in development wayy before the Unabomber incident. What the absolute fucking hell happened in 90s America socioeconomically that led into that.
