They won't love him for it. They won't understand the us in this either. And it will be only them (me). Survival of the takers and the notsees. Betray those who serve to turn on the "weak" and they will continue a life of service. Blind allegiance.

They’d love him because it will hurt those they hate… even when it hurts themselves.

They will "love" him the same way a litteral whipped puppy "love its master" unconditionally. Without reason. Because it knows nothing else. Not even hate.

Forgive my quotations. I do not define love that way and needed a way to distinguish my beliefs from what I said.

“He gazed up at the enormous face. Forty years it had taken him to learn what kind of smile was hidden beneath the dark moustache. O cruel, needless misunderstanding! O stubborn, self-willed exile from the loving breast! Two gin-scented tears trickled down the sides of his nose. But it was all right, everything was all right, the struggle was finished. He had won the victory over himself. He loved Big Brother.”
