Fukuyama is a real howler sometimes.
"For if, as dependency theory claimed, Third World underdevelopment was due to the participation of less developed countries in the global capitalist order, how could one possibly explain the phenomenal economic growth that had occurred in countries"

Despite the fact that the academic council recommended against it, despite the fact that the program brought in more tuition than it cost, and despite the fact that Nebraskans need & deserve this expertise, Earth & Atmospheric Sciences will be cut.

Stuff to watch for with scams accounts: ability to evade repeat suspensions, flawless English (may mean AI assists), multiple accounts using the same links & images posting all hours of the day. Stories not adding up. Also watch for highly manipulative language designed to bypass critical thinking.

But he still believes the natural order of things requires men to be supreme. Men must protect, provide and procreate. It's dressed in progressive language, but it's fundamentally a patriarchal box to trap men in

this is all nazi shit but it’s particularly galling to see the idea of someone being from a “failed state” presented as an indictment of them or their culture.
underdevelopment and “failed states” largely happen because of imperialism and extractive global capitalism—not personal/cultural failings.
