Lets see what happens to react. I hear React is building in support for Relay, React Native, other facebook stuff. I <3 <3 <3 react, they have done an amazing job so far, as a React.js consultant and early adopter I owe my financial well-being to React, but big projects from big companies have weird incentives, Conway law, everything made by big companies inevitably goes to shit, yada yada. Maybe Relay ends up being not the best solution to the client/server query composition problem (IMO its not). Maybe people will get burned by 50-shades-of-flux (IMO the Great Flux Wars have barely started) and for the type of company that writes a ton of javascript, the framework pattern will come in vogue again (IMO). Maybe there will be an explosive patent lawsuit where Facebook decides to weaponize its "defensive" patents for whatever reason. I personally believe all of the things in this paragraph will happen in the near term.

Edit; Sorry i meant Conway's Law https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conway%27s_law

In my mind at least, the so called Great Flux Wars have already been won by Redux.

I just finished my first non-trivial app built with Redux + ImmutableJS a few days ago, and it was pure bliss. Finally, we're able to build entire applications as a mapping of pure state transitions on top of immutable data in JS. Redux is by far the biggest reason why I haven't yet completely abandoned JS for ClojureScript.

Isn't Godwin's law that any online discussion will eventually lead to someone comparing something or someone to Nazi Germany if given enough time?

Yes, that's Godwin's. Not sure which "law" the original intended, but may be an example of Cunningham's Law.

Yes, it is; I'm not sure what comparison 'dustingetz was trying to make.
