Brilliantly written! However, it is disheartening how little has changed in the years this was first written. The leftist mediocrities who fill the academic social "sciences" like Loomba and Ghosh and Prasad and Chatterjee and Thapar still have a stranglehold in branding Hindus, and the technically-able engineers, scientists and physicians among us are too immersed in their careers and productive work to engage with these troglodytes. I am no fan of Ayn Rand's prepubescent right-wing fiction, but the socialists that she ham-handedly caricaturizes seem to eerily capture the likes of Loomba and her lowest-common-denominator comrades.
