"Volunteers of the Biotic Baking Brigade landed a multilayered cream and strawberry pie in the face of Luca Casarini just before he was to speak at the feminist bookstore, Bluestockings, in the Lower East Side. Casarini is the self described 'leader' of the Disobbiedienti (a current of the Italian anti-capitalist and anti-war movement that was once popular but is now not so sweet due to half-baked behavior on the part of its leader). Some examples incude: the taking over of anarchists' actions in Torino and other parts of Italy, the disruption of the Bologna Social Forum and the attempt to lead the dockworkers war resistance in Tuscany, which ended with his being driven off physically by the workers.
The doughy Pie-zano was frosted sucessfully on his way into the store where a crowd had gathered to hear a presentation on anti authoritarianism and academia. Casarini made one good point though - the movement is now as globalized as capital. One consequence of this is that self-styled 'leaders' will be held accountable for their actions and cannot escape by touring new territories and "re-branding" themselves.
No flakeout!
