Are this group of leaders Started by: Cohle on Jul 14, '20 17:04

The best we've seen in power, since the likes of FitzChivalry, LuciusSweet, Disorder, MonsterHair and even Orange were around?

I mean, you must be doing something right when such a large portion of the population dislikes a group (especially given the hitlist), or so I was often told by my father.

How will it all end though, I wonder?

An internal meltdown? A classic lightening bolt by the Gods? TylerDurden killing them one by one? Or maybe a sneaky rogue or two will get by and destabilise them all?

Whatever happens, I think it's safe to say I'm quite content with the way of the world right now, I think we have some innovative leaders in place, who as time goes on, will stand out as pillars of the community (except Grin-08, who never made it as a Pillar last time) and go down in the hall of fame.

Cohle laughs

Shithousery aside folks, I'll say the following, there are people currently in power that have often been on opposite sides of the fence when it comes to regime's or wars. Myself and Clarkson for example have been at odds in the past, so have our fathers and forefathers and now we find ourselves working together. If you look further into this you'll see other similar examples of similar incidents, yet people are quick to state that those in power are big bad meanies and would seek to destroy the world and give nobody a chance. It's simply not true.

My own Right Hand's grandfather was part of a war that saw some of my dearest friends go, yet I've given him a chance because I recognise that it's too small of a population to be so short sighted and I feel others with leadership positions are most likely of the same opinion as me. Take Grin-08 for example, having Premeir part of his upper structure. A lot of people wouldn't have expected that, my self included, but he did what he felt was the right choice for his family and I think that provides evidence that this current group are open to more than a lot of you give them credit for.

The dust still settles after so much war and destruction, I'm positive there'll be good times ahead.

...And if you don't believe me, just send me your locals so I can kill you.

Myself and Clarkson for example have been at odds in the past, so have our fathers and forefathers and now we find ourselves working together.

Indeed I can confirm this to be true, many times over the years our ancestors have been on opposing sides and have been killed, thing is some people can move on from past transgressions, the one thing I could never understand in this life is how some people can never move on and have to repeat the same old shit over and over holding grudges that their fragile ego's can for whatever reason get over.

Now I have never been one to get salty over an ancestor being killed or hold grudges until the cows come home just not my style, rather than blame every man and his dog for something you know will happen at some point anyway, I move on and go again and build further relationships, hence as my friend Cohle points out we are now working together as opposed to against one another, some of you should try it life is much more enjoyable.

As for the current crop of leaders a group who are closely working together to bring about stability and offer new ideas, are we really that bad? see the way I see it no matter who is in charge people will always cry about something, funny thing is when these people moan about this or that and how bad a regime is blah blah blah, these people when in a position of power do exactly the same thing they are crying about, moral of the story? try working with people instead of against them all the time you may just get somewhere.

I've not been around long enough to have an opinion on the current leaders of this thing of ours yet, whether they are the best in a long time or not. What I can say though, is every set of top dogs that have ever top dogged had to knock the previous ones off to get there. Its a fact of life, and an accepted part of this game called life.

Recently though, it seems the bitterness held by the children of those past top dogs is verging on the pathetic. Life is a game, you win for a while, then you lose, someone else wins. You get back in there and wait for your chance to win again.

I personally blame the fact that there's too much money floating around out there. In the old days it could be said 100 million was a massive amount of money. Now? It's a drop in the ocean for some of the oldest and proudest lineages.

Unfortunately, these old and proud lineages aren't currently behaving with the same grace and etiquette that got them in that position to begin with.

To me, this thing of ours has always depended on respect. Respect for each other and for ourselves. The way some of these people are behaving, it seems that they've forgotten that, and some of them, I'd say, no longer deserve the same level of respect that their ancestors might have commanded.

Ain't that the fucking truth, Wheeler.  And I know that you're an OG.  Sad thing is, a lot of OG are acting like embittered ladies.   

And Cohle - this is speaking yet more truth "there are people currently in power that have often been on opposite sides of the fence when it comes to regime's or wars"

The last war, my father was in a war room with people who literally shoot the fucking postman if he delivers a telegram from my family.  I'm being serious.  There were two people in that war room who haven't received a single telegram from my bloodline in a couple of generations.  I say: so be it.  I'll prove my worth to them, like my father did before me.  Looking at my family records, there's barely a CL alive today whose ancestors haven't killed one of them.

THERE IS NO POINT BITCHING ABOUT IT!

Some of the current CLs are so against me and my bloodline that I'm literally scared to mention their name - in case they shoot me!

Again, I'll prove my worth like my father did before me.

Poor Billy_Russo, he constantly rejects my overtures and advances.  I just can't talk him into bunking with me.  I answer all his questions, about my sexuality, plans for the future, writing career, and he just still won't come and bunk in my HQ.  And he won't invite me into his.

Again, I'll prove my worth like my father did before me.

And that's all that I can do.

I have to agree with Anton here.

this is how it's always been, as a wise old soul once said, this is mafia, not hold hands in the peace core.

Well said, cohle. I’ve fought both for and against many people who happen to be part of “This Group of Leaders”. I try and provide a loyal and predictable presence within any crew I’m afforded the opportunity to be a part of.

Personally, I’d prefer we all move on from the differences of our ancestors and make the best of what we have here in this moment. Salty people who carry grudges can get lost.

Very good words from Cohle, just good when people not try to look to long back and just walk forward and have fun with all new names after war each time. Who cares what some has done? Its just to take a step ahead and forget and make sure to dont look back to much and have funnier than before the war so as speak.

Johnny is walking down the street and decides to join in the conversation 

"Honestly I don't really care. People come and go reigns last long or are tragically cut short. Here's the thing we're gangsters not politicians so why should we or them those in power give a damn about approval ratings? If we all cared about being liked we should have chosen a different line of work like acting or music. Unfortunately I can't sing or act so this will have to do. Some of us are in business together with these same people they're making us rich why would you hate someone who is helping you make money."
