“India's political economy, in other words, favours state support for national champions, not incompetent cronies who thrive only because of patronage. When cronyism raises its head, popular vigilance should strike it down. But the discourse should not confuse national champions with cronies.”

— TK Arun, The Economic Times, (29/10)

“a narrative that begins in 1492 with the mythic arrival of Christopher Columbus. This moment is still described in textbooks, museums and mindless school rhymes as the "discovery" of America. The truth, of course, is far more brutal. Columbus did not discover a new world. He invaded one, and that invasion set in motion one of the most ferocious chapters in human history. Columbus's arrival heralded not discovery, but genocide. The devastation was total.”

— Shelley Walia, The Hindu, (29/10)
