The last few pages of Technocracy talk perfectly illustrate why I always loved the Conventions. A massive global conspiracy that's got so convoluted that no-one knows who's really running the show, filled with a competing mix of humanist idealists, power-hungry opressors and literal mad scientists? There's a lot of scope for all sorts of things in that concept, and it all depends on what facets you want to highlight at any given time.

Sorry about bringing up Technocracy Chat again, but having genuinely good and idealistic people working for a horrible, hidebound and in some places evil organisation is such a great hook that I really don't understand why people hate it as a direction. How much minor weirdness do you overlook to focus on big threats? What happens when you have more in common with your "opposite numbers" in the Traditions than you do with the awful people you work for? What if you have to work with, say, Werewolves, to defeat some horrible thing from the Umbra? What if they're good people, but your boss is asking pointed questions and giving meaningful nods towards the silver-filled claymore mine? What happens when you uncover corruption (literal, magical corruption) within the ranks, but don't have the rank/clearance to be heard? IMO the real antagonist in a Technocracy game isn't a rabble of Reality Deviants, it's the Technocratic system tself.
