Let's see, no that was not my intent. I have no one to try to inspire, and no interest in making myself sound epic. I do; however, find it amusing that you throw out the term nerdy as an insult, when you are the ones taking the game humorously serious.
The NPO can still rebuild (again), especially when looking up their alliance yields 5+ pages of peace mode nations of millions of NS. Which brings me to my next point. A game should be amusing, yes? What would be most amusing at this point, given the past machinations within the context of the game, would be to watch the utter annihilation of an alliance which has dominated the cyberworld almost since its inception. The alliance which has built itself upon the concept of taking the game too seriously. Throw out the pseudo-political crap that has stagnated CN and show that it is capable now of that which it has proven incapable in the past. Try a new approach and risk things on a massive scale. Do things for the fun of it, and for the fun of seeing the result, rather than out of fear of loss (which, in this fake world, is ultimately meaningless). Who knows? Maybe what comes of the chaos of internal strife (in Karma, the one that almost everyone is predicting) will be better than promoting the status quo. Even if it isn't, it'll at least be an interesting change.
EDIT: I would like to point out one thing. Though I may not like Trotsky's style with the NPO, I think one thing people should take note of is this: He isn't hiding in peace mode.
