Capitalism always favors the short-term sugar high.
These shallow surface-level disputes serve another important purpose, which is to distract us from deeper problems Blue dynamic. It distracts us from stories that mav suggest more that don't fit quite so easily into this Team Red versus Team structural issues in which all elite institutions from our political parties to the media itself may be complicit 2019 was a banner year for such stories and for the gap between the relative insignificance of the stories obsessively covered and those which were almost or completely ignored. This monologue, originally delivered in October of 2019 before impeachment is all about year distracted and titillated by a Ukrainian phone call, while the that gap. How in the world did we allow ourselves to spend all globe erupted in flames and we barely noticed?

2019 as the vear the world began to burn as massive work. If the historv books are accurate. thev may well remembering class protests rocked every corner of the globe. In Chile protests sparked by a bus fare hike triggered a mass movement with huge public support to demand an end to the catastrophic inequalitv of neoliberalism. In Iraq, the countrv is disintegrating before our eyes as its inept, kleptocratic government, installed after our fraudulent. endless war, falls apart. In Port-au-Prince, Haiti, anti-government protests left dozens dead and scores injured. Meanwhile, in the United States, we get to hear a constant back and forth about 'Treason!' and Ukrainegate.
That's right, while the world melts down right before our very eyes, our news media and political leaders have decided to focus their attention on an improper phone call-a phone call by our President that was meant to hold militarv aid to Ukraine hos- tage unless they would investigate Joe Biden's son. But. the in- vestigation was never opened and the aid flowed anvway.

A long way to go through sides

As i'm no longer young in life
and there seem to me not
so many pleasures to look forward to
How fortunate to be free
to write of cars and wars, truths of eras,
throw away old useless
ties and panes that don't fit

Sanskrit is absolutely a magnificent heritage language — but saying it has “no hybridity” or is perfectly written as spoken can sound a bit too absolute. Every language evolves, borrows, shifts with time. Sanskrit’s strength is not that it is frozen, but that it is deep, precise, and culturally foundational.

Sanskrit: Our Cultural Root, Our Intellectual Pride
Sanskrit is not just a language.
It is a civilization speaking.
It is one of the world’s oldest and most structured languages — a language of philosophy, science, poetry, and spiritual inquiry. Its grammar is so refined that it has astonished scholars across centuries.
Sanskrit is special because it carries meaning with clarity, discipline, and depth.
Each word is not casual — it is crafted.
Each verse is not mere sound — it is thought made eternal.
To honor Sanskrit is to honor the roots of Indian consciousness.
It is the language in which the Upanishads questioned existence,
the epics shaped morality,
and ancient minds explored mathematics, astronomy, and logic.
We do not promote Sanskrit out of nostalgia.
We promote it because heritage is strength.
A nation that remembers its classical language remembers its intellectual spine.
Let Sanskrit live — not only in temples or textbooks,
but in education, culture, scholarship, and pride.
Be proud of this inheritance.
Not as a relic,
but as a living flame.
Sanskrit is not the past.
Sanskrit is continuity.
Sanskrit is India’s civilizational voice.
