Imagine there are no losers: Why 2024 is the John Lennon election

Times of India  

Nirmalya Dutta's political and economic views vacillate from woke Leninist to Rand-Marxist to Keynesian-Friedmanite. The story goes that when the young working-class hero was asked what he would like to be when he grew up, he had replied: “I just want to be happy.” There’s absolutely no evidence to suggest that the story, like Albert Einstein’s imaginary driver one, has any basis in reality but it’s certainly a darn good tale. Of course, a good anecdote should never go waste, and this 2024 Lok Sabha Election can be termed the John Lennon Election because everyone, after result day, has a reason to be happy, some vestige of hope that turns their frown upside down and raises their serotonin levels. Despite all the bluster of divine intervention that would help them cross 400, the NDA even failed to even reach the number commonly associated with Gerard Butler’s CGI abs: 300. Critics of the regime also attributed to poor social media handling, communal statements, calling oneself a divine being, the hubris of saying one will win 400 seats, the mangalsutra statement, and the regime’s tendency to attribute morality to food choices.
