    Well I wouldn't know because I'm not a mob expert. When I think of the mob I think of petite bourgeoisie lumpen guys from New Jersey that have a McMansion like the sopranos and hustles that net them huge cashflows. I guess mafia stuff like gang stuff could be leftist, I mean lumpen are still proletariat I suppose. I try not to be too hard on say like black gangs hustling to survive and protect themselves but I don't have much love for mob goons from the east coast that get into that line of work solely for the profit.

      The mob is pretty much a bunch of petit-bourgeoise lording over lumpens who have nowhere to go, they've been reactionary for most of their existence with the tiniest bit of "it was for oppressed minorities to organize" justification from the early days.

        And that only applies to the US.
