I don't think Fukuyama is particularly misunderstood and this 'prediction' was an example of him hedging his bets, rather than 'serious' or prescient analysis.
Fukuyama is the most misunderstood contemporary intellectual, and his detractors never read past the title of ‘The End of History.’. He absolutely did not predict we’d be living in some liberal post-Soviet utopia; in fact, he predicted backsliding to violent anti-liberalism.

A part of modernism is the speed and possibility of replication that classical artists could not achieve due to technological constraints, but this phenomenon leads to very confused takes on art, such as the idea classical artists didn't iterate works around a singular subject.
I dislike about modern art that an artist will have a single idea and make it the topic of not just one, but four paintings. In a classical painting there could be half a dozen little winks to the viewer like this one, none of them even forming the main theme.
