| Background on the PCC Cartel in Brazil |
| 2023-09-25 |
| [GreyDynamics] Primeiro Comando da Capital (PCC) is a Brazilian criminal organisation. The gang is inspired by Comando Vermelho, one of its main rivals. Both criminal organisations were formed by prisoners who organised groups to defend themselves in Brazil’s violent prison system. The PCC emerged in São Paulo during the 1990s and has waged a bloody battle for dominance throughout the country. The PCC is considered the largest and best-organised criminal organisation in Brazil. The group is believed to have members in most of the country’s states. Furthermore, the PCC has expanded its operations abroad, both in South American countries and in Europe and Asia. This article analyses the history and organisation of this gang, as well as its recruitment, weapons, and most relevant criminal activity. The PCC has established pacts and feuds with the various groups depending on their area of operation (source). 3.1 Enemies

| #2 Socialism breeds violence. Suggests the 'bathub' manufacturing cycle. It's a great idea for the downtrodden poor, becomes a great idea and voting policy, then fails when there isn't a new concept for the curve. |
