To understand the world, watch "Deadwood"

you also see this type of human behavior in a similar scenario on "Jericho"

It's more than just sick human behavior on display with "Deadwood." It's the explanation of how things come to be with a government, like why the "mayor", the "sheriff" and every other person of importance take orders from the town's top crime boss, he is their boss. For example, after giving the job of sheriff to a new guy, the top crime boss basically tells him to ignore fresh blood on the floor of his office that was there from a murder that had happened minutes before the new sheriff took his new position. The sheriff simply walks past the blood and ignores it.

This explains why the illuminati's corruption will never be exposed or brought to justice. The illuminati elite give the congress their orders, they give the president his orders, they give the supreme court their orders, right down the line... The illuminati elite are the mafia godfather figures who run everything behind the scenes and if they tell somebody to ignore the fresh blood on the floor, it's ignored (metaphorically speaking). Again, this the realization that society can't exist without having organized crime at the top (and "Deadwood" portrays that perfectly, imho).

Expose the illuminati and their power vaporizes.

This process is in play now.

You are either for them
(condone, turn a blind eye, cower in fear & submission)
or
you are against them
(educate yourself and your friends, reclaim your personal responsibilty & destiny).

HAS ANYONE BEEN ABLE TO GET A COPY OF SETH BULLOCK'S HISTORY OF DEADWOOD?
HAS THE HEARST CORP. BOUGHT THEM ALL SO PEOPLE WILL NOT READ HOW THE MONEY FOR THE HEARST MEDIA EMPIRE WAS MADE.
DOES THE HEARST CORP HAVE ANYTHING TO DO WITH THE FINAL SEASON OF DEADWOOD NOT BEING SHOWN??????

If we didn't have the big bad bullies, I think we'd all get along just fine. Unfortunately, the bullies are sometimes disguised in sheep's clothing or people will only listen to the loudest voice out of fear of persecution.

Kurt Russel's movie Deadwood is very good too.

OP

I guess that the fact that Deadwood is highly fictionalized is lost upon you?

Same thing with "The DaVinci Code", it's a work of fiction but then some people talk about it like it's all fact.

Ever watch that tv show, House M.D.? I'll bet the whole point of reading fiction isn't lost on him...

The head of any government is the God Father of that society. The Mob with the most guns wins. How many guns does Uncle Sam have?

this is accurate

Those that have the stomach for the wet work reap the reward.

The rest pick at the crumbs.
