    Well, I'll be. Even if the Guardian were a useless rag that has never done something useful and never will, that would redeem it in my sight, and not jut for the comedy value. Ladies and gentlemen, the famous - or infamous - rebel with a cause, subcomandante Marcos is back, and with a new book to come out in June.

    A treatise on globalism? Class struggles? No, the next book will cover that. Memoirs? Not yet. This one is for something no less important for any struggle, much less an armed one: funds.

    Still, it never crossed my mind that one of the legends of left-wing thought would publish a pornographic magazine.

    Yep, the noble cause needs its support, and the money do not smell - and if they ever do, the cause is a great deodorant. Indeed, in this world reality beats satire. Still, it beats drug traficking any day in the year as far as I'm concerned.

    Yet I can't help but be interested in several important aspects of the matter. First of all, is the new publication going to be directed towards the elite segment of the market or towards the working classes? In other words, is it the rich hustlers or the playcomrades that are going to get more attention? Second, is there going to be some outreach towards women, or other groups? After all, Marxism-leninism was quite big on equality ;) .

    Well, that's ... amusing :)

    I guess if the revolution needs money, writing porn is a good way to get it ... ends justifying the means?
