[@stonecoldsteveaustin9353]

He's dishonorable, he broke the rules of the lifestyle that he agreed to. That's why it's such a big decision to get involved with that stuff and why it sucks that some people get sucked into it from an early age. Because it's something you can never walk away from, or at least you shouldn't be able to. And hell yeah it's a dangerous life to be stuck with, many don't last that long. I'm sure most of these guys never thought they'd turn snitch but they had to in the end just to survive... but still, any honorable person would face up to the consequences or end their life before turning their back on their chosen fate. This guy bit the hand that fed him and now brags about things that should never be spoken of.

[@vasvas8914]

Stone Cold Steve Austin man, you really should think about what you saying. Is it more honorable to continue the life of thievery and murder? He was BORN into this life, hid dad was a big boss, and 45 years in he decided to get out, which is virtually impossible. But he did, he served his time, he didnt snitch on anyone (no record for that at least), and became an honest person. Now he's doing god's work explaining how mafia mechanics work so decent people would know about it (a VERY dangerous thing mind you), and you bash him because he stopped being a criminal? I have no respect for who he was but I have HUGE respect for who he become. Thats takes balls, determination and tons of self-imrpovement. And you probably one of the guys that think "code of honor" between those murderous leeches really worth something. You should reevaluate your life.

[@johnkerr3050]

111 000 Fr these stupid ass niggas acting like staying in the Mafia is honorable or some shit. People get too sucked into movies. Like just because I go and watch Breaking Bad doesn’t mean I’m going to think cooking meth is honorable.

Yea, he's deep in thought and picturing what Michaels talking about in his head. It's like he's trying to put HIMSELF in the scenario, and pretend like he's the one making the moves. Then asks what would happen next. Eyes tend to do that when you're deep into a story you're interested in.

My grandad (raised me) taught me, to always let the other guy think he's smarter than you. He wants to think it anyway. People trust what they understand. Let him "understand" he's smarter than you. That gives you an asset the other guy doesn't know about, a card you can play without showing your opponent.

Knowing how to get other people to think they won is IMO the best skill you can have when it comes to any form of negotiation. If you're good enough at it you can get the better side of the deal by a large margin and and they will still be the one who reaches out to you to continue the business relationship.

[@dightonazpeitia4350]

“Well Patrick, I’m gonna undermine what I just said by implying that you can say anything you want to whomever, behind closed doors.”

[@daviedood2503]

Michael means that it'd just be his word against the other guy. And nothing would happen. Now if someone ELSE heard MICHAEL saying those things to another made man, well that's a different story. That's a witness. 2 against 1. He means, that if you're gonna call someone out on their lieing ass bullshit, do it privately in another room to protect yourself. If he comes out the room saying "he called me a liar and an asshole", Michael can just say that he doesn't know what the guys talking about, and he doesn't know why he's upset. It's a WAY of indirectly making that guy APPEAR to be a liar without having to come right out and SAY IT.

[@dightonazpeitia4350]

Davie Dood Right, but wouldn’t it just be far simpler to say that if you call them out behind clothes doors, that means that they can’t out you or it’s them accusing you of something? And accusations are something that made guys can’t do against each other?

[@daviedood2503]

@@dightonazpeitia4350 Michael means doing it INFRONT of other made men. You basically work it out the 2 of you privately. Once you're out infront of everyone, then respect is turned on for BOTH men. Hardly ever would the guy come out crying about how Michael called him a liar etc. He could just say "no I didn't".

@@dightonazpeitia4350 just you two ALONE, then like Michael said, he called him everything under the sun. But once the door opened, it was back to shaking hands etc.

[@dightonazpeitia4350]

Davie Dood Yeah, I got that. But the explanation could be confusing. Sometimes simple and precise is the way to go. Look, you basically just repeated yourself. That’s not what I’m getting at. All I’m saying is that there is a way to explain it where it’s less of a cluster fuck of confusion

Use great ideas to build yourself into a man of strength and character, a man of your word, skilful and with a purpose that serves the ones around you. If you enjoy ideas about masculinity and mastery, I invite you to explore the videos I share on the Mastery Order Channel. Challenge yourself with some concepts about manhood, explore your masculine potential to the maximum and become the kind of man you would admire. We can only better ourselves together, as men among men, so I invite you to use what I share and, of course, share your own opinions so that others can benefit from them as well. Looking forward to your points of view. All the best to you!
