It's been rumored...

...that organized crime is behind the porn business, or at least involved in it. Particularly the Mafia. This is effectively an extortion racket using loopholes in the law.

It isn't a rumor, I just wonder if they draw the limits at gay porn, or do not care where the money comes from as long as there is money

At one time this might have been true but I don't think it is anymore. Quite a while ago when magazine news shows were plentiful on broadcast news there was a report done on the growing porn business due to the internet. At the end of the program they had a graphic showing the major companies who made money from porn. If I remember correctly Time/Warner, General Electric and others pulled in billions from the porn industry.

There was a lot of corporate buy ups, the forming of mega corps was still going on and they bought up money making properties of all kinds. Porn is way way bigger than the Mafia of the mean streets. It's all about the white collar "mafia".

OP, are you writing from the 1970's?

Money is money. It’s not like sociopaths care where or how they make it.

The Russian mob will make ALL other organized crime syndicates extinct in America, and soon.

Right now, they’re coming in from Russia, and buying TONS of real estate in the rural South, of all places. Lots of land, lots of blight, lots of disorganized and corrupt government and elected officials, and lots of people dying from the Opiod crisis, as well as boomers being rendered to nursing homes by their city dwelling kids, who have no interest in paying taxes for their dad’s 5 acre property and family home. Or they’re dying, and the kids sell ASAP, or the county sells dirt cheap at auction. The Russians come in, and pay cash on the spot for these places. They make sure to outbid everyone, and they do this consistently and regularly.

Once in, they corrupt the already fractured systems that they invade. They join law enforcement, get jobs at the state penitentiaries, FBI, SWAT units, local DEA, courts, etc. They prop up pharmacies, and bring in their own Russian-American pharmacists. Strip clubs, bars, restaurants, gas stations, warehouses for money laundering and narcotics distribution, jobs at port authorities, inspection points, etc., etc. They even get official agencies like ICE, to come into small, rural areas, and do sweeps, where they bust hundreds of illegals, including ones in charge of facilitating illegal documents for the immigrants, which they usually buy from counterfeiters, Russian mob, or Mexican mob.

Point is, they get all organized crime OUT of the areas they are taking over, and police agencies all the way up to the courts and government officials in Washington DC, help them do this, because Russian Oligarchs have so MUCH money, they simply can’t refuse to remain incorruptible.

Porn is a part of it, but not that important in the big picture.

There are only a few industries where I have witnessed it to be almost impossible for Russians to move in on, and take over: Wall Street, and Hollywood, and Silicon Valley. That might be changing, as I type.because for sure, they’re attempting to pour money into these sectors too. However, these sectors are, or have been, much too resilient and stable for them to take a stronghold in, because the people who are the heavy hitters in these sectors, are too smart, and wealthy enough, to see an offer they can refuse, and do refuse, because they understand exactly what happens, once they do.

r4 sounds like hysterical bullshit.

by Anonymousreply 5December 15, 2019 4:08 PM

So predictable. Repugs like OP are beating the "PORN MUST BE STOPPED drum. Wash , rinse, repeat. Considering that most porn is consumed by red states this is ironical but then irony was never facists control freaks forte.

by Anonymousreply 6December 15, 2019 4:16 PM

There's no money in porn anymore. So, not likely. The mafia launders their money through mattress stores. Look it up.

by Anonymousreply 7December 15, 2019 4:17 PM

Nope, I don’t, R5.

And that’s why the Russians OWN Donald J. Trump, Mitch McConnell, and every other dirtbag who has betrayed our country. Because assholes like you, tell people like me, that the Russians aren’t coming.

They’re coming, R5. They’ve been coming, and American intelligence agencies have attempted to tell you this. You think they’re stupid enough to concentrate their financial and political influence to only one spot? JFC. You must be living under a rock.

Tell me how hysterical I am, go ahead.

Maybe the Russians are so bad after all. At the very least, they’re better educated and smarter than YOU, and that’s why they currently own the President of the United States of America, you fucking moron.

Dude had a great cock.

In Japan, yes. Not long ago a legit male model posted on his twitter that he was forced to masturbate on cam and paid nothing by a yakuza gang when he was 18-19. His solo clip was released under the FUTUREBOY company. Now he only works in Hong Kong or Thailand.

The Russian mob moved into the US in the 70s and expanded a great deal in the early 90s. They are not just now arriving. They've been here. Getting that detail wrong invalidates your entire post, r4.

Jesus Christ, OP. You people are mentally ill

by Anonymousreply 16December 15, 2019 6:31 PM

Umm, nope. I specifically wrote that the Russian’s HAVE been here.

I have known Russians all of my life, and have lived in Russian-American communities. I know exactly how they work.

They have worked their way up, and into DC. Trump is the Cherry on Putin’s Ice Cream Sunday, not his foot in the door.

Why do you think all of these corrupt senators and congressmen are standing firm behind a President they despise? Because he comes with bribe money.

That’s what Trump has on all of these pieces of shit. Dirty money. They had no idea that Putin was already working on the the part of his complimentary bribe package.

JFC, 15. Do you honesty think I stupid, and don’t read constantly, in order to keep up on my shit?

R14, it’s an internet commercial, asking why you’re on DL discussing Russian organized crime, rather than flying out to Dubai with your fellow gays or frauen, spending your disposable income in a country where you can spend your American dollars in fun establishments and overpriced malls selling the same shit you can buy in Beverly Hills, or Manhattan, and making Russian organized crime syndicates more money, since they are now heavily investing in businesses in the UAE, specifically tailored to sell more crap to bored, over indulged Americans, searching for adventure and meaning in their lives, like you.

Duh.

At least that’s what Goop told me when she got the 2M from the Dubai Tourism Board who paid her & the other two ladies.

Goop, being so generous, bought everyone on the crew vagina people’s, and crotch steamers with her cut.

Zoe gave her cash to her husband, so he could look busy “investing”, and Kate spent hers on the BIGGEST bottle of duty free vodka she could find, as soon as she unboarded the plane, as evidenced by her moon shaped face.

👆🏼That’s why the Russians LOVE Kate, no matter where she flies. .

OP you should read the book "The Other Hollywood." It's a history of the (straight) porn industry and explains why the mafia *used* to control so much of the industry.

by Anonymousreply 23December 15, 2019 8:47 PM

no longer true, now all you need is a smartphone, a twitter/ig account, a webcam and an internet connection in your bedroom, you can immediately launch your own porn business (chaturbate, pornhub channel, onlyfan page and subscription based private snapchat...)

by Anonymousreply 24December 15, 2019 8:54 PM

R24 That's true, but still only makes up a tiny fraction of porn revenues.

The mob doesn't have to dominate an industry to be a player. they've always played a role in music (nightclubs, record companies, etc.) and they mostly cashed out of vegas where they did dominate. They probably played a bigger role in the past because they could invest in different, cash bsuinesses related to it like the dance venues where women in porn made their real money.
