Appreciate the Rays of Optimism! Nothing wrong with injecting optimism from time to time. In fact, a comprehensive Woe cannot but thrive without said "hope" from time to time sprinkled in.
In Aesthetics, there is something called the "Uncanny Valley" which closely tracks Aesthetic resemblance vs Our emotive reactions to said resemblance. The relation (roughly) goes like this:
Early phase increased resemblance to Humans -> Increased Positive Emotions from observers
Valley "reached" with regard to resemblance -> Asymptotic Decline in Reception; Disgust and Fear
Valley "passed" with regard to resemblance -> Rapid recovery in Reception; Awe, Love, etc.
In this particular situation, an Analogous relation holds. In fact, if one reads the very last paragraph and lines of "1984" by Orwell, that relation is likewise hinted at (paraphrased):
"He Had Won the Victory Over Himself, For He Loved Big Brother"
What is this relation? It is the one for "Reception to Tyranny" vs Increased levels of Tyranny. Plato was quite correct when he said this is the endpoint for all "Democracies":
Early phase increased Tyranny -> Increased Positive Reception from Observers.
Valley for Tyranny reached -> Rapid Asymptotic Decline in Reception; Rebellion, Fear, Anger.
Valley for Tyranny passed -> Rapid recovery in Reception; Awe, Love, Reverence, etc.
The Coming Conquest and Delenda Est of these Lands by the Eurasians will thus be to the masses what Winston's Utter Surrender (at the end of "1984") was, namely the Uncanny Valley for "Tyranny" being overcome at the Macro level for whole societies, and in fact an entire "post-Civilizational hellscape". This cannot happen mind you, without Hope entering in first and then being Devoured. The Future Eurasian Conquerors and Ravagers of these lands know this.
It is a good way to end off on the "old world", where Nuclear Radiation burns, Cannibalism, Necrophilia, etc were but reserved for those of a pessimistic mindset. But well, what else can be said? Mankind Utterly Deserves all that he has wrought by his own hands!
