End of History

History has now ended, declare such apologists for the neo-liberal economic status quo of globalization as Dinesh D'Sousa.

Proponents of the singularity make similar claims, that there is nothing more to do. All that can be done, or need be done--is. The world is accelerating in the only possible direction, and get out of the way, or we'll get you out of the way, or help out.

Nothing more for us to do but accept it.

The only reason to make such absolute claims, is to take on a finality for one's beliefs, and thumb one's nose at everyone else:

Your view is shit! Only I have the answer!
