That'll never happen unfortunately. The best type of government doesn''t control people. The best type of government incites people to govern themselves.
@@stoiccrane4259 but the sad part is, that people CAN'T govern themselves. There will always be hirarchies. Because of our differences there is no set of rules that really everybody agrees to. There is not a single law in the world that every human would accept. From the small stuff like "how fast should you drive in the city" to bigger stuff like "can you murder somebody if they insult you", there will always be different opinions. If everybody would agree and also don't break a certain set of rules, then it wouldn't need a controlling government, but this is not reality and will never be. And if you let people just "solve the disagreement on your own" you will have people who are willing to enforce their opinions on other people. And what would you call that? That would also be a government, but much more archaic, because then it will be like past times again, the stronger people will win against the weak. I wouldn't call that fair or good, but this is also just my opinion and there are people who see this not like that and even WANT it to be like this. If government would not enforce our laws, I could just hurt people so they would do as I want, as long as I am stronger or have better weapons or whatever, the strong, ruthless, brutal and shameless would oppress the people much much more than today. It is absolutely a good thing, that we have a government, for the benefit of most people, because it straightens the imbalance of human differences (like strength and brutality) and makes society a little bit more fair for the weaker people.
@@marcbuerkle When it comes to humans we function on one of two different paradigms. Either animalistically pertaining to the flesh or holistically pertaining to the spirit.

I don't want people high-fiving…😇😇😇 Because he knows that he betrayed them, as he said, they trusted him. A lovely excuse on his behalf about not tricking them. How about breaking the trust, Bob?
The second guy, undercover agent. Mad respect for his mixed feelings about everything. You are dealing with criminals, but you are also dealing with people. I imagine that on some level, you create relationships and bonds. And the families of the criminals absolutely do get their lives ruined. That is ultimately on the criminal and the complacency of the family, but still, it effects a lot of lives when people go to prison and that fact shouldn't be taken lightly. So yeah, he is 100% correct that the government needs to have a conciounce, but sadly a lot of the workers don't, when it comes to criminals.
I think that's a pretty universal trope amongst the 'Wiseguys'. I mean, how could one *not* have 'mixed feelings' when one's literal job description is to impersonate someone else in order to infiltrate an illicit group, gain their trust, to then just come down on them with the full force of the law, thus flushing away months, sometimes years, of accumulated 'fake trust'. It must do quite a number on a man's psyche, to say the least. And by the way, I thought it was funny the way he was describing this avatar of his that he'd crafted, saying 'it was all just me'.
The part Triad guy couldn't translate is a reference to Peach Garden Oath from Romance of the Three Kingdoms... Liu Bei, Zhang Fei and especially Guan Yu are all venerated, their Oath is about brotherhood between people who aren't related but have a bond deeper than actual blood relatives.
It is simillar concept to being blood brothers/sworn brothers in olden time Europe. But that usually involved blood in drink or a ritual with a cuts that are pressed togeather to symbolize you are now one blood. Example the Hungarian Hajduks would mix drops of blood in milk and then they would drink to become brothers.
@@kimgysen10 The whole sworn brotherhood thing is more alive om certain cultures and dying in others as you said the world keeps moving on but I do believe it is alive and well in China because they have to be tight since loose lips don't just sink ships there but could kill them all if caught.
@@vx8431 Yes I mean I take the rituals thing with a pinch of salt. I think it’s something they do when they’re young and naive because they think it means anything. I also think many will turn with the wind when an unforeseen situation presents itself. In the end gangsters are in it for selfish reasons. At least that’s what I believe… wouldn’t put too much confidence in a silly ritual.
Ok why was it literally so sweet when the prison gang guy was like (paraphrasing) "I did it because my girl has lupus and I couldnt tell her because stress affects her lupus" he not only put his life in danger to help pay her medical bills (in addition to environmental factors leading to a life of crime) but also had takem the time to gain at least a basic understanding of her chronic illness. Everyone is just people, man. I dont think most people are inherently good or bad; we all do both. 1:06:45
What’s so sweet about a person who only thinks about themselves? His girl was seen as an extension of him. The only people who matter, in this context, are those innocent people he terrorized to steal their money, or otherwise harmed. None of it was his money, unless he earned it honestly.
Women are a huge, totally underrated aspect of the criminal world. From motivation, instigation, discord, treason, honey traps, down to support and child support (which is, next to prostitution of various types, the primary extortion model for women). From near perfect invisibility & immunity, it's now emerging, simply because they are becoming so brazen and have effectively destroyed internal regulation. A lot of it will unravel within the next 10 years. Be safe!

This is actually a misconception. The majority of murders go unsolved in the US. People still get away with crime constantly, it's just the lazy or stupid people getting caught.
The jewel thief said he lost his father and brother on the same day last year. I'm curios about the situation, because it's a heck of an awful coincidence if it's natural.
Don't quote me but I think it was a Suspected murder/suicide but it wasn't totally clear based on the scene. Like I said not totally sure if my memory serves me.

That having been said, I call bull on him never having sanctioned a hit on someone who stepped outta line. Who follows a general that's never drawn their sword?

They might regret what they did earlier in life and it's great they turned their lives around, but clearly, none of them are "good guys".
My dad was special agent for the IRS under RFK. He would go undercover to banks asking to set up Swiss accounts used to avoid taxes. They would say they couldn't do it, but as he was exiting the bank doors a man slipped him a card with a phone number to call. Crazy

EHAT GOOD IS THE SHADOW WHEN WE CAN SEE THE PERSON ANF HEAR THEIR VOICE. THE TITLE IS EASY ENOUGH TO FIND ..... STAY SAFE OUT THERE GUYS. WE LOVE HEARING OF YOUR PAST LIVES, WE PRAY YOU ARE LIVING SAFER AND HEALTHY!!
It's hilarious how a lot of gangsters talk about getting "respect" and how the top guys were "respected"......bullshit. No one respects these assholes. They might pretend to when face to face, but that's just lying to a psychopath. Not respect. Sorry tough guys and violent gangsters. No one actually respects you. Threatening to hurt someone unless they bow down to you is not respect.
In their world, respect is based on violence. So yes they did respect each other. To you as an outsider you don't respect them, but this isn't about you
I was about to talk sht about him...until he said this...39:50 "I want a government with a conscience. I don't want people high-fiving." Now he's my hero. well said, 100%
Triad have jobs like everyone else. The difference is that they work the underground jobs that we do not see. Triad are not walking around out in the open daily. Like he mention some of the work that they do is money laundering and money laundering involves counting and moving money. It isn’t done online or in the banks. It is done in person and then at your other places of business. Triad is about working jobs which are untaxed. The tax those business pay are to someone else and those people pay them the tax rather than the US govt or state.
I grew up a lifelong drug dealer. However, after my 2nd prison stint for possession with intent. I had to change careers. For me, an opportunity arose during a humanitarian crisis. It became nearly impossible to get cash into a war zone. However, i had a prior global network and good heart and found a way to combine both to get cash to those that need it. Typically, the cash came from their own accounts. Family payments or fundraisers. Since the war shut down all banking internally. Umtimately, there shouldnt be anything illegal about giving ppl access to their own funds.
2:04:14 this is interesting. I've heard chigiri said in tv shows about things like video games, and never knew what it really meant. This brings a whole new meaning to the word now.
1:47:52 "Go to prison and find out how to get away with something next time" - the fact that the person telling you this is actually sitting in prison would lead me to believe that their advice wasn't to be trusted. They obviously didn't get away with it!
As a Norteno my self it’s crazy to see the spot light we getting this last year and this new year.. Hollywood or everyone knows about south siders. Us north siders always been out numbered but we even out the odds😎. Ppl like Boxer (john Nuestra familia member) even tho what he saying sounds stupid. He giving us a spot light haha

It ain’t the cops stopping it in the hood I’ll tell you that. It’s the homies.
Like the guy that makes counterfeit said his prison sentence helped him. I think that's true for a lot of ppl getting shorter sentences especially ones with drug problems.

After the 17 year sentence, you worked hard and started a legit business. Right on!
Thanks for the beginner tutorial. Finally one that you can follow
I really love thiw channel. Good job wit this fr 👏
I enjoy a jewelry store. Diamonds 20-30% markup. 50-100% on diamond bands
The triad guy goes. That’s what I heard smart man.
10 to 16 months for counterfeiting. I think I need to take a good look at my career choices.
Thank you for sharing your struggels
This guy was with China Mac. He is the real deal from the Ghost Shadows.
Lol, China Mac?
@@mitchellhayman381 lol, hymen?
IRISH MICKS CHINESE COUSIN TWICE REMOVED CHINA MAC COUSIN OF WHO FLUNG DUNG AND WAN SAN SHU LOL@@mitchellhayman381
Whoever decided to add that irritating buzzing noise you use all the time needs to have their editing license revoked.
For real
imagine just doing a bunch of crimes and then saying oh, i was just undercover
Never heard a better self assessment
i wish they do a video on how did Diddy did it.
The third guy's story about the prison system makes me sick.
first bro is the sleeping dog's main character lmao
Great interview
The Arnold Schwarzenegger we didn’t know we needed
I feel like if I knew these things, I wouldn't talk that much xD
There must be a very specific reason why they're putting this content out there.
Bit confused by the diamond heists. Did the dad go in without a mask to get the owner to go bsck and forth to the safe? Or was it just a separate person doing that?
Thanks for that man , the true story from the real guy
The second guy with the whole money laundering scheme is an absolute beast.
Did this video get shadow banned why did it only 9 comments and 3k views?
its only been uploaded 8 hours ago. and maybe some people post comments containing words that Insider does not allow and they get hidden.
@@RandomDeforge nah bruv u guys are def right, its been 2 month and theres only like 300 comments, def been shadowbanned or something, im guessing its the sensitive info about the aryans and the guards betting on inmates and killing latinos and black whenever they feel like it, that was literally said in the video
Love my lab grown diamond. 💃 No blood diamonds for me 😅
I like how the counterfeit guy was now working in printing. Nice
EHAT GOOD IS THE SHADOW WHEN WE CAN SEE THE PERSON ANF HEAR THEIR VOICE.
THE TITLE IS EASY ENOUGH TO FIND .....
STAY SAFE OUT THERE GUYS. WE LOVE HEARING OF YOUR PAST LIVES, WE PRAY YOU ARE LIVING SAFER AND HEALTHY!!
seeing former gang members become cops (the good ones btw) or priests are just wholesome... like the vibe is- I feel good for them
it's crazy that triad guy is almost 80, he aged well despite his lifestyle
The 2nd guy feels like a real life inspiration of ozark.
and his silhouette and voice and cadence is very similar to marty!!!
Cool...good for you man!
dam that one guy can make a shank out of 15 pieces of paper thats just wow
ROLL LIKE STEEL
I really enjoy your videos. Thank you and bless you. ❤
It's hilarious how a lot of gangsters talk about getting "respect" and how the top guys were "respected"......bullshit. No one respects these assholes. They might pretend to when face to face, but that's just lying to a psychopath. Not respect.
Sorry tough guys and violent gangsters. No one actually respects you. Threatening to hurt someone unless they bow down to you is not respect.
The other gangsters respect them. You can’t deny that. I don’t think they’re referring to the average person
In their world, respect is based on violence. So yes they did respect each other. To you as an outsider you don't respect them, but this isn't about you
It’s crazy to me that you can be born in nyc and live there and still have a thick Chinese accent
I've been playing gta v lately and this made things so real.
The triad guy saying “that's what i heard” smells funny to me😂😂😅
I was about to talk sht about him...until he said this...39:50 "I want a government with a conscience. I don't want people high-fiving."
Now he's my hero. well said, 100%
The silhouettes are a joke. Black it out fully, especially if the dude has a contract on his life.
NY Chinatown one was particularly interesting. Nowadays with prevalent black-on-Asian violence, I wonder where these guys are.
Triad have jobs like everyone else. The difference is that they work the underground jobs that we do not see. Triad are not walking around out in the open daily.
Like he mention some of the work that they do is money laundering and money laundering involves counting and moving money. It isn’t done online or in the banks. It is done in person and then at your other places of business. Triad is about working jobs which are untaxed. The tax those business pay are to someone else and those people pay them the tax rather than the US govt or state.
Busy for Money laundering I guess
“prevalent black-on-asian violence” lol the media really can just convince people of anything
1) Dead
2)Locked up
3)Legit
I grew up a lifelong drug dealer. However, after my 2nd prison stint for possession with intent. I had to change careers.
For me, an opportunity arose during a humanitarian crisis. It became nearly impossible to get cash into a war zone. However, i had a prior global network and good heart and found a way to combine both to get cash to those that need it.
Typically, the cash came from their own accounts. Family payments or fundraisers. Since the war shut down all banking internally.
Umtimately, there shouldnt be anything illegal about giving ppl access to their own funds.
When he talked about the movie stuff I instantly thought of Rush Hour.
2:04:14 this is interesting. I've heard chigiri said in tv shows about things like video games, and never knew what it really meant. This brings a whole new meaning to the word now.
Yea usually it means “promise” 契り
Wait did he just say Jackie Chan is a triad
1:47:52 "Go to prison and find out how to get away with something next time" - the fact that the person telling you this is actually sitting in prison would lead me to believe that their advice wasn't to be trusted. They obviously didn't get away with it!
THE TRIAD AIN'T NOTHING TO PLAY WITH
As a Norteno my self it’s crazy to see the spot light we getting this last year and this new year.. Hollywood or everyone knows about south siders. Us north siders always been out numbered but we even out the odds😎. Ppl like Boxer (john Nuestra familia member) even tho what he saying sounds stupid. He giving us a spot light haha
Street gangs are goofy. Do what you have to do but go to school, get urself an education and then out of the hood.
@@SlurryNoises they are stupid but there necessary in colored neighborhoods. It’s culture to us. We are a community with a bad rep.. we do what you civilizians wouldn’t do. Like if a pedophile moves into your neighborhood we the ones running them out. Not you guys. If a weirdo or a racist moves in or a robber or a drug dealer. It ain’t the cops stopping it in the hood I’ll tell you that. It’s the homies.
So many SMOKIN' Daddies! Yum! YUM! THANK YOU ISNIDER!
So the real Emmy Awards go to guys like him.
I dont fear much in life, but i think i would be nice to this one 😄
53:14 I respect the dedication
can you PLEASE get a new sound effect for scene transitions or at least vary it up a bit jfc
Great story!
He was shot 5 times for the hair style.
Like the guy that makes counterfeit said his prison sentence helped him. I think that's true for a lot of ppl getting shorter sentences especially ones with drug problems.
This man from the Yakuza sounds interesting maybe he would show me how the triad gets down at the club?
Yakuza = Japan
Triad = China
