The lowest you can do this at is level 15

Fúck all the factions. I murdered the leader of each and I now wear their clothes. I am the king of the wasteland.

Do synths have power armor? No. They have to wear ugly cream colored gear that only has one good looking piece (field helmet). Do synths carry f[i]u[/i]cking laser chainguns? No. The best they can do is a kind of big rifle that looks like Nerf 20 years in the future. Do synths have a cool latin slogan they scream into battle? Unless "MANKIND REDIFINED" somehow becomes menacing, no. How about a leader with a fabulous coat? No. Maxson's is obviously better. And unless you wear his coat 100% of the time, it doesn't count. Were you guys in Fallout 3? Yeah. You got mentioned and your shining moment was when you f[i]u[/i]cked up and let one of your synths loose. We were... ahem, a bit bigger of a deal. How many installations do you have? Let's see, well there's that one... and there's... CIT? No wait that's not right... hmm... Which is cooler- blowing up a blimp, or blowing up part of a city, FROM BENEATH IT? Let's let that sink in. Teleportation is cool and all, but for about half a second, and everyone can do that anyway with a pip boy. Cool, you get the conscious concept of teleporting and an effect, big whoop. Raise your hand, who would prefer teleporting... (4 of 6 raise hands), to riding into battle on a fully functional retro-futuristic advanced assault helicopter model with pilot controlled rotary cannons at the front and mounted chainguns on either side, complete with passenger transport? (previous 4 lowers hands) And best of all, what was your guys' greatest accomplishment? Something about using Mass Fusion as power I ah... agh, ahaha, I'm sorry. You see it's just I was too busy building a gargantuan patriotic mechanical titan hilariously believing he is destroying enemy communist forces in the process of mowing down your synth's sorry asses. Did I mention our robot has a cool name? Liberty Prime! Powerful isn't it? Kind of like the lasers he shoots out of his eyes and unlimited near car-sized nuclear bombs he pulls out of his back and lugs and helpless enemies. All your guys have is some laser guns. Sure we think synths are a threat, but you know what else we want to obliterate? Super mutants, ferals, DCs, raiders, gunners! Hey Institute, you keep talking about helping. You really wanna help? Get "actively involved." [spoiler]All Brotherhood oriented propaganda aside, I understand the Institute only wants to help. I just personally like the feeling a pure untarnished warfare the Brotherhood offers. Plenty of toys and plenty of things to try them on.[/spoiler]

That's all amazing but the old synths are being thrown out! We'll soon only have Humanoid Synths. So they'll definitely be decked out in the latest X-O1 armor, bet on it! We can also teleport and our base isn't made out of collapsed buildings and hope! And I don't know about you, but in my Institute save file we're currently working with the Commonwealth and not stealing their tech/ crops. Nice! And the BoS is so fond of choosing who to give Aqua Pura to. Yall are monsters in disguise.

Hope is an incredibly powerful thing. In fact, hope drives power. Not always, but it does the best job at it. And so what if they're collapsed? 1, we have the Prydwen, which is mobile. 2, it gives us better view of our surroundings. 3, it's all reconstructable, we just have other priorities. Military sustenance is necessary. Sometimes sacrifices have to be made for the safety of mankind. And besides, it's not like we're stealing people. (Bunch of settlers: "Ooooooooh, dayum!)

We tried to play nice with the stupid people up top! They didn't wanna play ball, we started stealing people. Things need to get done, we don't steal food we steal whoever the fck we need. Very rude, very "gets shit done" lmao. Now we don't have to, and there is much patching up to be done. It will take time, but once humanity finally sees a radiation free future ahead, they will only want to walk forward with us. We held our hand out before, now the Commonwealth gave it s hand to us. Also, I shot the Prydwen down and destroyed Liberty Prime. And your men care, as they often comment on the shoddy state of things. [spoiler]It's [u]our[/u] hat Mr Krabs. We are number one![/spoiler]

This could go on for a while.
