I generally don’t purchase travel books but this one from @lonelyplanet caught my eye! It’s a comprehensive guide, and I strongly recommend buying a copy.

To my surprise the chapter on Gujarat, India is written by @DelishDirection who describes Gujarat as a place worth visiting.

[Prachi Joshi @DelishDirection]

@BasuAshis @lonelyplanet Yes, that's the one!

[Prachi Joshi @DelishDirection]

@BasuAshis @lonelyplanet Thank you for your kind words!

A small departure from Rome’s crowded piazzas to these three historic towns offers a rare chance to slow down the tourist pace and to experience the Renaissance at leisure, writes @DelishDirection. Read it here.

Latest chatGPT image trend infuriating me just as much as all of the other ones before. Cannot help but judge every single person doing it.

This is called aestheticization of politics.

The aestheticization of politics is a concept introduced by Walter Benjamin in his 1935 essay, The Work of Art in the Age of Mechanical Reproduction.

He argued that fascism responds to the economic demands & problems of the masses by turning politics into a theatrical spectacle.

This gives people a false sense of expression while keeping property and power structures untouched.

The Core Mechanics of Aestheticized Politics Theatrical Spectacle are as under :
(a) Politics becomes a matter of grandiose parades, rallies, and media rituals rather than actual democratic power.Preserving Property: Regimes allow the working class to feel heard and unified, but protect existing class and economic property relations.

(b) Self-Alienation: People are reduced to viewing their own destruction and subjugation as high aesthetic pleasure.

Behind Indian protests:

India’s corporate-led growth model that failed to secure livelihoods for farmers, informal labour, may now be faltering in its alignment w/ interests of middle class that was central to its post-1990s legitimacy.
