The German state sees piracy groups and our comrades who Crack games and software as organized crime groups.

The German state sees the YPG as organized crime groups.

The German state sees anti G20 protestors and anti gentrification groups as organized crime groups.

Etc etc.

Your expressed idea of organized crime is exactly why the state uses such terms, to evoke the images of child murderers on legislation and public opinion, using it for their own capitalist oppressive goals. Their organized crime isn’t or organized crime.

YPG isn’t disemboweling civilians in front of their kids and piracy groups don’t cut faces of people off while they’re alive with a boxcutter.

Neither do they profit off of anything they do.

The cartel does.

So? Nothing of that was of interest for the German state, which uses national and international laws aimed at organized crime against the gross I mentioned (often supported, or motivated to do it by the US and alike).

This is my point. Just like ‘criminal’ to us are the people with capital, not the thief who steals bread or the union who is involved in direct action. So is organized crime not just of our definition.

Sir, we’re on a leftist website, no one refers to organized crime as organized crime on the terms of the German State.

There is no difference between any kind of criminals actually, everyone is just labeled by the state.
