The funny thing is watching these little black gangs do work in America. They couldn’t survive two hours against a real cartel. Complete bitches.
So...play with fiction now. Let’s say some dystopian future. No government. It’s all gangs. All the gloves are off. There’s no repercussions. Just abject brutality and efficiency. Survival is the order of the day, blood and lead, Fire and sword.
Who rises to the top. Who has the killer instinct?

I say yes because there wouldn't be politics involved

The 'Merican mafia couldn't beat a Mexican cartel

Depends....would the mob have a young Joe Pesci on their side?

And did the cartel tell that young Pesci to shine its shoes?

Yes there was. The Cali cartel controlled 90% of the cocaine shipments in the world at one point. They were far more global than Escobar’s cartel.
When Pablo was at his peak the Medellin was the biggest but after he died, the Cali was even bigger at their peak.

El Chapo had/s a net worth around $4 bil. I don’t think any American Mobster was worth anywhere close to that. Money is power and resources.
The cartels are also not afraid to play dirty as said killing wives and children, cutting heads off, and dismembering. In general the American mob simply shot the men.

You must not know of Roy Demeo and Tommy Pitera. Kuklinski would put fear in the Cartel

IDK, After watching the Funkytown video, and watching another where they dismember a man alive and cut out his heart, I don't think the Iceman would put much fear in the Cartels.

No he wasn't,not when he was at the top of jis game.There was no other Cartel more powerful or who controlled a bigger % of the supply.
For a time The Cali cartel controlled 90% of the WORLDS cocaine market. At the height of the Medellin cartel they had ~80% of the US market.

I'm disappointed in the OT. First foot massages on baws and then y'all are siding with the cartel. Sad day baws . Baws everywhere should side with Italians and Sicilians.
Don't think for one minute they wouldnt bring the feds down on the cartel faster than Waste Management passes by your baw mansion the morning trash cans are suppose to out.

La Cosa Nostra infiltrated legitimate businesses in countries around the world to a degree never seen before or since. And being the most violent or ruthless doesn't mean you'd win a war. I'd take intelligent gangsters like Carlo Gambino and Tony Accardo any day of the week.
