Thank you, Achala ji. The grounded approach was the hardest part to get right. The temptation with this subject is to reach for alarm, and alarm is exactly what lets people look away. I'm glad it landed as steady.
Clear, deep and amazingly well written, as usual. The unfortunate thing is that these destructive and corrupt populist ideas that devour the most sacred right, the right of ownership, are still being recycled in that part of the world.
Thank you, my dear Faraj. You are right that it never left that part of the world. But the harder truth is this: the same appetite is now being built, quietly, into the tools of the societies that think it could never happen to them. Not with slogans this time. With convenience.
