Legitimate Gangsters
By Seb

2
00:00:05,240 --> 00:00:08,039
We live in a world where the very foundation

3
00:00:08,140 --> 00:00:12,180
of our economic system is 
based upon social ranks.

4
00:00:12,660 --> 00:00:17,780
The higher you climb, the closer you 
might get to the cartel of banks.

5
00:00:18,060 --> 00:00:20,380
If you like to talk about organized crime,

6
00:00:20,440 --> 00:00:24,100
Perhaps the most powerful
institution of all times,

7
00:00:24,400 --> 00:00:29,980
Then look a little closer at whose controlling 
the issue of every single dime.

8
00:00:30,360 --> 00:00:35,380
Most gangsters go to war, have guns 
and sell cocaine on the street.

9
00:00:35,660 --> 00:00:41,380
But the best gangsters create wars, sell 
guns and are people you’ll never meet.

10
00:00:41,620 --> 00:00:44,380
Here’s a question:
What’s a bigger crime?

11
00:00:44,580 --> 00:00:46,980
To own a prison 
or to be in one?

12
00:00:47,180 --> 00:00:49,640
To shoot each other with AK47’s?

13
00:00:49,700 --> 00:00:53,320
Or to be the person selling 
both sides the guns?

14
00:00:53,640 --> 00:00:54,920
The truth is none.

15
00:00:55,020 --> 00:00:59,300
Both are bound by circumstances, 
conditioning and causality.

16
00:00:59,460 --> 00:01:03,900
The act or position is simply 
the deterministic outcome.

17
00:01:04,459 --> 00:01:08,660
Yet besides that people's sense 
of morality seems twisted.

18
00:01:08,940 --> 00:01:13,900
But what else can one expect from a world 
where arms dealers, CEO’s and bankers

19
00:01:14,040 --> 00:01:16,880
are the last ones to be convicted.

20
00:01:17,140 --> 00:01:22,720
It’s also interesting how uniforms and 
badges seem to make killing people ok.

21
00:01:23,100 --> 00:01:29,360
Like all those soldiers and cops murdering innocent
civilians in this unequal game we play.

22
00:01:29,920 --> 00:01:36,320
The various institutions of this system legitimize 
those who serve the establishment up top.

23
00:01:36,840 --> 00:01:43,120
Whereas the low-level players are economically 
disadvantaged and demonized nonstop.

24
00:01:43,520 --> 00:01:49,460
How can you justify such a system where the 
ruling elites dress in million dollar suits,

25
00:01:49,580 --> 00:01:56,000
Whilst billions unnecessarily work meaningless 
jobs like programmed prostitutes.

26
00:01:56,320 --> 00:02:02,640
One can’t, as the entire pyramid structure 
pushes an aggressive mob mentality

27
00:02:02,880 --> 00:02:09,360
With some level of hate, violence, and 
classism being apart of everyday reality.

28
00:02:09,960 --> 00:02:13,800
The entire corporate structure 
seems to be like the mafia.

29
00:02:14,120 --> 00:02:18,380
Power consolidation, loyalty, 
and merciless practices

30
00:02:18,520 --> 00:02:22,060
are the protocols that breed this egomania.

31
00:02:22,540 --> 00:02:28,760
However, I’m not saying that one should hate 
any type of gangster, legitimized or otherwise.

32
00:02:28,940 --> 00:02:34,020
Like all humans, we are products of culture 
and our socioeconomic structure,

33
00:02:34,180 --> 00:02:37,020
which is important to realize.

34
00:02:38,140 --> 00:02:44,540
What I am saying though is that being ruthless, 
brutal, predatory, competitive and acquisitive,

35
00:02:44,700 --> 00:02:46,300
just like a gangster,

36
00:02:46,580 --> 00:02:48,240
does not come out of nowhere.

37
00:02:48,400 --> 00:02:53,140
It is taught by this capitalistic culture 
with all the ghettos, inequality,

38
00:02:53,240 --> 00:02:57,080
movies, media, business 
schools and universities

39
00:02:57,300 --> 00:02:59,960
molding humans everywhere.

40
00:03:00,360 --> 00:03:03,080
And as long as this trade game exists,

41
00:03:03,360 --> 00:03:08,400
Our world of low level and legitimate 
gangsters will persist.

42
00:03:09,720 --> 00:03:16,020
