Anyway it's been turned into an illuminati themed tavern

So, still Freemasons then

New World Order? More like New World Ordering a round of shots

Secret society membership numbers really fell off after the Sasquatch hunting craze took off

my great grandfather was a mason of some local repute

my grandfather was asked to be initiated and he was like

"actually i dont join things like this without knowing what you stand for, what you do, and what my place would be. Go fuck yourself."

annnnd now i'm realizing some shit about myself and where it came from as i say it lol

(to say i've flubbed and snubbed people for them not being willing to explain themselves is an understatement)

post in daylight or not at all imo

And making pet ownership a luxury experience with insanely high vet bills.

Is that the freemasons fault or is that a joke about their very dull reality?

It’s just a social club for dudes. Guys gotta have some pageantry to excuse hanging out, but not the gay kind, to hang out regularly. Unless it’s a sports or drinking thing. Or if they're gay.

Or under 35.

Can you link to the post if you remember it? Im so fascinated with them

It seems like some of these Lodges are just excuses for dudes to grill, which is just good-hearted fun, and some of them are ghoulish. Land of contrasts, just like people who play vampire: the masquerade

honestly we need state intervention on the "make new friends as adults" front. I'm talking state backed bowling leagues (and other stuff) that you get paid for attending. Call it a direct investment in the social fabric.

The Freemasons are functionally a country club and honestly they're pretty transparent about it all. Like not the internals, that's all chattenham house rules, but like you can just ask them about it

You have to spill the beans and tell all the good stories now

Seems to be the classic "petit borgies larping as working class with silly costumes". I think the aprons are based on stone and metal working attire.

Its just a petite bourgeois networking operation. The chuds in my town are almost all free masons and some of them work as real estate agents and their boss is also a free mason.

I was gonna say, the petit bougie support group sounds like it would be right wing by default

An old friend had a side-job as a waiter/server in the local lodge. She had an NDA and wouldn't tell us too many details, but based on what they ate, I'd say either chuds or very old people (or both, I guess). Lots of meat, gravy and potatoes and very little else.

The biggest electoral left figure in France is openly freemason

I guess it depends on the 'branch'? I know a radical vegan hare Krishna Freemason.
