Line 18:
* [[Deliberate Values Dissonance]] - Applies both for the author and the different species of Man. This is especially true to the Last Men, who treat ritual cannibalism as a sacred death practice.
* [[Eternal Recurrence]] - Stressed over and over all throughout.
* [[Guilt -Free Extermination War]] - After fifty thousand years of intermittent warfare between the Second Men and the Martians there is no hesitation to use a bioweapon that kills all the Martians and leads to the downfall of the Second Men.
* [[Harsher in Hindsight]]-America's rather mindless pop culture has taken over much of the globe, Europe has been exhausted by wars and China is now the world's #2, a Russo-German happened with Germany led by a man who wrote a crazy book considering Slavs subhumans, Europe, exhausted by wars, has created a Union. Whoa.
** The final struggle is between China, dominated by a disciplined if xenophobic political party, and an America controlled by billionaires and religious fanatics with eccentric takes on Christianity. The subsequent American world-state collapses after a few centuries because it has pissed away all the world's fossil fuels.
