MANIFIESTO del no hacer
La realidad laboral es un agujero negro.
Hay que dejar de trabajar.
Hay que dejar de trabajar.
Hay que trabajar el dejar.
Trabajar no es un hecho natural.
La sociedad de trabajo es una sociedad de dolor.
El ritmo de trabajo productivo es un suicidio colectivo.
Destruyamos el trabajo como eje de nuestra existencia.
La abolición del trabajo es fuente de prosperidad.
Hay que saber decir que no.
No al sí desfasado.
No a una producción para producir.
Hagamos algo no haciendo.
Dejemos que las cosas se hagan.
Hay que saber decir que no.
Dediquémonos a la vida y al mundo, no al trabajo.
La sobrevivencia no puede estar por encima de la vivencia.
Hay que revalorar la pereza, la poltronería y la desmaña.
Viva el sopor, la acidia y el deambulismo.
Tenemos que hacer menos.
Tenemos que no hacer más.
La banalidad está infravalorada.
No hacer no es un pasatiempo, es un vivetiempo.
El no hacer es una posible solución al mal de este mundo.
El no hacer debe ser siempre hecho con voluntad.
No hacer, como todo buen juego es cosa seria y tiene un significado profundo.
Hay que hacer menos.
Hay que saber decir que no.
Hay que no hacer.
