Default Replacing New America for my Campaign

So I have replaced New America for my campaign with a group I call The Reductionists. Essentially, they mirror a real life movement that believes in reducing the human population and returning humanity to pre-agricultural levels of population. I decided it was this group that funded scientists to create a virus that would begin destroying civilization, while they would then make the crisis worse by striking at industry, energy and fuel storage, crops and key leadership. They are essentially extremist radical environmentalists who do not value human life at all.

For this group, I have created a cell structure for some operaties mimicking the Morrow Project. Due to the party capturing such a group (scientists and medics and some guards in this case) the party have been tasked along with other groups with hunting down the bases and refuges of the Reductionists.

I think that they could easily be slipped into regular Twilight 2000 even without an Infection plague. They could be wreckers, terrorists, mutineers, and so on who simply don't want to see civilization recover effectively. They might be few in number or be a genuine big conspiracy.

That seems to be the norm for groups and individuals like this.

For themselves as a general group, sure. They believe they will live in a paleolithic paradise post civilization.

It's for the kids, man!

They need to do these terrible things now and remove the glut of humanity who only know how to live by sucking all the good out of Mother Earth in a wholy unsustainable way! You're killing the oceans, poisoning the air, depleting the soil so it cannot grow anything, destroying ecosystems that you do not bother to begin to understand, and have not paused to stop for the last 150 years!

For the kids to have a chance to grow up, the current crop of adults needs to go; the most efficient way is to smash the systems that are hurting the Earth
that these adults depend on.

How can you be against the kids? Now, stay still so I can get a good shot at you...

Very similar, yes, just very different circumstances, and a bigger conspiracy.
