David Sacks mentioned the work on All-In with Chamath, Jason, Sacks & Friedberg to illustrate 1990s theories that global economic development would inevitably lead to democratic governance. Peter Thiel discussed the book on Honestly with Bari Weiss to analyze how 1990s optimism failed to anticipate modern political realities. On The Joe Rogan Experience, Antonio Garcia Martinez referenced Fukuyama's final chapter regarding the human struggle against liberalism.
