I wasn't actually familiar with the later Fukuyama works. www.liberalcurrents.com/the-end-of-h...liberalcurrents.comThe End of History and the Final GirlAnton Jäger’s "Hyperpolitics" is, at its best, late marginalia for "The End of History and the Last Man." At its worst, Jäger, like Fukuyama, is a prisoner of his political pieties. 000

connorfromohio.bsky.social @connorfromohio.bsky.social · 30/07/2026I liked Nolan's "Odyssey" more the second time around & I've become convinced that he has presented an "Odyssey" with NOTHING supernatural. The film begins with "In an age of apparent magic..." and I think that's all it was. Nolan loves ambiguity about what really happened in his films. 130
