[iDC] introducing myself

[Brian Holmes]

Oh, Sergio, I was fantastically interested in your manifesto 
until I got to the words "5 minutes". To hell with Pessoa! 
Call for a real strike of a cosmic day when people do not 
work, do not consume, but use their life potential to 
produce the new internationalism that alone can put a brake 
on the murderous power that dominates us. Your 5 minutes 
will get us nowhere. Trust the wider world. Look to the 
impossible. Ask for the real. Your writing is fabulous. The 
world needs so much more. The global strike, the real one, 
is coming. Call for it!

best,
Brian Holmes
who comes from California where a strike against the arms 
industry is the only gateway to the future
