      It is not invite-only membership; that is disinformation. You can apply to join today if you choose.

        It is not disinformation. My comment’s context was about the founding days and not today. When the lies about Freemasons/Illuminati were first being spread, it was invite-only. Now, it’s ASK12B1 and you still must undergo an interview process. Including, months worth of training before the first degree.

                It’s literally asking why the conspiracy theory came to be. That’s asking origin without explicitly using the word.

                  Why are the freemasons often the target of conspiracy theories?

                  Where does it mention the founding that you claim was obvious context? This conversation is over dawg. You think it was implied but it wasn’t written so we aren’t thinking the same. Oh well!

                    Imagine going to answer that question, or answer any question for that matter, and you don’t start with the origin to answer the why…kek

        It used to be. In fact ideally you were descended from a freemason and also vouched for.

        Times change.

        They used to wield real power or influence in protestant Midwestern and East coast areas in the 1800 to early 1900s.
