Legitimate Gangsters
By Seb

00:00:05.240 --> 00:00:08.039
We live in a world where the very foundation

00:00:08.140 --> 00:00:12.180
of our economic system is 
based upon social ranks.

00:00:12.660 --> 00:00:17.780
The higher you climb, the closer you 
might get to the cartel of banks.

00:00:18.060 --> 00:00:20.380
If you like to talk about organized crime,

00:00:20.440 --> 00:00:24.100
Perhaps the most powerful
institution of all times,

00:00:24.400 --> 00:00:29.980
Then look a little closer at whose controlling 
the issue of every single dime.

00:00:30.360 --> 00:00:35.380
Most gangsters go to war, have guns 
and sell cocaine on the street.

00:00:35.660 --> 00:00:41.380
But the best gangsters create wars, sell 
guns and are people you’ll never meet.

00:00:41.620 --> 00:00:44.380
Here’s a question:
What’s a bigger crime?

00:00:44.580 --> 00:00:46.980
To own a prison 
or to be in one?

00:00:47.180 --> 00:00:49.640
To shoot each other with AK47’s?

00:00:49.700 --> 00:00:53.320
Or to be the person selling 
both sides the guns?

00:00:53.640 --> 00:00:54.920
The truth is none.

00:00:55.020 --> 00:00:59.300
Both are bound by circumstances, 
conditioning and causality.

00:00:59.460 --> 00:01:03.900
The act or position is simply 
the deterministic outcome.

00:01:04.459 --> 00:01:08.660
Yet besides that people's sense 
of morality seems twisted.

00:01:08.940 --> 00:01:13.900
But what else can one expect from a world 
where arms dealers, CEO’s and bankers

00:01:14.040 --> 00:01:16.880
are the last ones to be convicted.

00:01:17.140 --> 00:01:22.720
It’s also interesting how uniforms and 
badges seem to make killing people ok.

00:01:23.100 --> 00:01:29.360
Like all those soldiers and cops murdering innocent
civilians in this unequal game we play.

00:01:29.920 --> 00:01:36.320
The various institutions of this system legitimize 
those who serve the establishment up top.

00:01:36.840 --> 00:01:43.120
Whereas the low-level players are economically 
disadvantaged and demonized nonstop.

00:01:43.520 --> 00:01:49.460
How can you justify such a system where the 
ruling elites dress in million dollar suits,

00:01:49.580 --> 00:01:56.000
Whilst billions unnecessarily work meaningless 
jobs like programmed prostitutes.

00:01:56.320 --> 00:02:02.640
One can’t, as the entire pyramid structure 
pushes an aggressive mob mentality

00:02:02.880 --> 00:02:09.360
With some level of hate, violence, and 
classism being apart of everyday reality.

00:02:09.960 --> 00:02:13.800
The entire corporate structure 
seems to be like the mafia.

00:02:14.120 --> 00:02:18.380
Power consolidation, loyalty, 
and merciless practices

00:02:18.520 --> 00:02:22.060
are the protocols that breed this egomania.

00:02:22.540 --> 00:02:28.760
However, I’m not saying that one should hate 
any type of gangster, legitimized or otherwise.

00:02:28.940 --> 00:02:34.020
Like all humans, we are products of culture 
and our socioeconomic structure,

00:02:34.180 --> 00:02:37.020
which is important to realize.

00:02:38.140 --> 00:02:44.540
What I am saying though is that being ruthless, 
brutal, predatory, competitive and acquisitive,

00:02:44.700 --> 00:02:46.300
just like a gangster,

00:02:46.580 --> 00:02:48.240
does not come out of nowhere.

00:02:48.400 --> 00:02:53.140
It is taught by this capitalistic culture 
with all the ghettos, inequality,

00:02:53.240 --> 00:02:57.080
movies, media, business 
schools and universities

00:02:57.300 --> 00:02:59.960
molding humans everywhere.

00:03:00.360 --> 00:03:03.080
And as long as this trade game exists,

00:03:03.360 --> 00:03:08.400
Our world of low level and legitimate 
gangsters will persist.

00:03:09.720 --> 00:03:16.020
