I need you to point me toward the original source for what you just posted, and I'd also love to hear your take on Fukuyama...

Amanda Fowler2 said:So here’s the thing: I wanted to tell Baudrillard that if modern humanism is essentially driven by the premise that nothing holds more weight than life itself—which implies that life isn't worth sacrificing for any cause—then perhaps the philosopher needs to maintain a certain distance through ethical reflection, assuming such a thing even exists in this post-historical era... Furthermore, is there any way to reconcile Socrates, Heidegger, and Baudrillard—the victim at the dawn of everything, the apologist for the end of history, and the deeply entrenched theorist of the post-historical age? And one more thing: where is the commentary on the Enlightenment's fatal drive toward desacralization within Baudrillard's work? Can someone please write me something

Tell me, please, have you actually read the essay "To Have a Devil"?

Amanda Fowler2!👋

Be a gentleman and walk me through how this whole "post-history" concept of yours actually connects to Fukuyama’s take on the matter...
The title itself feels a bit too "postmodernist" for my taste...
Where can I actually find a proper breakdown of your theory, because scrolling through that massive wall of text, I kept tripping over astrology, mass media, and all sorts of other things thrown into the mix...

Are we talking about mass culture here, or is this meant to be some fresh perspective on history itself?
