That is exactly my point. My comments were in response to a number of other comments, painting the Yakuza as some sort of 'honorable' organization that is different from every other organization in that they allegedly are much less disgusting in the things they do and are 'apparently' less prone to violence (Which is obviously a result of the Yakuza being romanticized in games and media) All of the mentioned points are in fact untrue, meaning that the Yakuza are the same, if not worse than pretty much every other criminal group out there. You don't even hear about the most notorious gangs on the planet going around doing the things the Yakuza has been accused of doing. TL:DR my point was that there's nothing that differs the Yakuza from other criminal organizations. I personally don't care if people roleplay them or not, or if the server follows LA or not, I was mainly responding to various people's (very misguided) views and opinions on what the Yakuza is.

right? lol. muh honor, but their members kidnap and torture young women for rejecting them, lets not even talk about the fact that they try to make 14 y/o and below schoolgirls prostitute for them. Yakuza isnt on gtaw because they aren't present in LA, they aren't present in LA because no gang in LA tolerates them and their presence, not even gangs like MS-13 tolerate them. They generally get wiped out if/when they pop up doing anything more than moving laundered money around.

scum isnt even a bad enough word to describe them, it's a shame that this disgusting group of deviants gets romanticized in shitty video games and movies, when the reality is extremely horrifying. Kinda gives people a false impression of these disgusting people which is extremely dangerous tbh. I'm not gonna lie it's quite disturbing seeing people advocating for this kind of an organization to be roleplayed here.

I hate to break it to you, but the Yakuza doesn't have an honor bound code of conduct bro... They're a vile group of rapists and murderers who are hated and feared across the entire continent of Japan. They're the Japanese version of El Salvador's MS13. If you don't believe me, read up on the murder of Junko Furuta, a 17 year old japanese schoolgirl who was held captive for 40 days by the yakuza, she was tortured, sexually assaulted for over 40 before finally being killed in the end. Unfortunately for all the Yakuza shills on here, the Yakuza aren't what you think they are. They're incredibly disturbing and I personally hate to see them roleplayed.
