/r/freemasons is a banned subreddit. What is Conde Nast hiding?

So I know all of the supposed stuff about freemasons, but whenever I see a free mason, they're ninety year old men in wheel chairs.

Shriners :)

Not all of them have wheel chairs.

Apparently, you don't watch TV.

I do and thag's what im talking about. They never talk about real modern day free masons, they only talk about the conspiracies surrounding them.

[deleted]

I don't really know anything about "high level" masons but I'd be willing to bet it's because you're not very important (not being a dick). Think of it like politics - the selectmen in some shitbum town don't have any real power, it's the people at the top of the national/global political system.

[deleted]

Can only men join thde free masons?

yup. but there's the order of the eastern star for the ladies.

That's because your the type of useful idiot they need, no offence, are you a member of the Scottish Rites of Passage? If not then your lodge and lodges like your's are a veil for the hierarchy. A screen, a shield. Nothing of importance other than that.

So then how does one pierce the veil and become one of the 'elites'?

Prove to them your a psychopath, an actual psychopath, its the only people they work with. Freemasonry is used to detect and to filter out good people from positions of power.

You don't know what your talking about. downvote

Oh no my life is ruined.

[deleted]

Not seen much benefit as of yet, but I'd assume it will be in the future, otherwise why would anyone stay in it.

If I were you, I wouldn't use this kind of logic to guide my future.

My name is Mason and I'm 34. Tell me your secrets!

What exactly do you do as a Freemason? I've never really looked into Freemasonry in a 'conspiracy' sense, just what I've heard bits and pieces of over the years.

[deleted]

I guess my question was more along the lines of what the meetings are?

[deleted]

Oh you conspiracy theorists...

I'm a conspiracy theorist and a freemason.

Whenever I read anything posted by masons on the web all I see is - trolololo.

[deleted]

wut

[deleted]

Would you mind fleshing that out a little as it relates to who and what black people are?

I was taught the freemasons used to hold the secret of the arch.

[deleted]

You know, like an arch, above a doorway. It was said that only the masons held the formula for creating an arch. Nowadays everyone knows though...

[deleted]

A physical arch. Think about the word free mason. Masons/are were stone workers and brick layers. They held the secret to creating an arch out of stone which was a big.

[deleted]

Obviously their agenda has changed, im just saying thats how they started.

He is a character in a play who was hit over the head because he wouldn't give up the secret password.

[deleted]

an alagory of course. I'm not sure what you're getting at here to be honest.

[deleted]

Slaves didn't design Washington. They were just told what to do. Most of the workers working on the white house weren't slaves. It was designed by an Irishman by the name of James Hoban. Also the view that they were uneducated is grossly incorrect. They weren't stupid. The slaves that were taken had entire political, social and ideological systems that were incredibly advanced. They adapted to their environments as we adapted to ours. As far as the two dollar bill goes I'm not familiar with it. My mom has one somewhere saved but I couldn't remember anything about it.

[deleted]

You're referring to mystery systems, what are you talking about? Of course the egyptians wouldn't share their secrets with the Greeks. When your country is invaded by another, you do everything you can to keep your secrets safe.

[deleted]

History says they more than likely tortured them and then gave up. What's your point?

[deleted]

I feel like I've been trolled hard. Also, I can't tell if you don't speak English or if you're intentionally being cryptic.

[deleted]

If you say so. This is why conspiracy theories exist you know. If people would just be straight with their language, there wouldn't be room for theories.

[deleted]

Dude are you using horrible grammar for a strange cryptic reason or do you really not know how to spell the word you?

[deleted]

You really haven't told me anything to be honest. I wanted to know if there were real masons out there and what the big deal was. All this did was prove to me that some people on /r/conspiracy are whack jobs. I'm sorry you can't spell. It's sad. I heard illiteracy grips over 1/3 of our nation. I can set you up with a really great English tutor if you'd like. Stop the cycle people.

[deleted]

I'm serious, I can find someone to help you. It shouldn't be that hard to learn the English language. If you really wanted to enlighten or teach anyone anything, you'd start by learning English. You are inconsistent in your grammar which proves to me you're simply a fool. Why should I take you seriously, or anyone else in the world for that matter? This society is a laughing stock. Everyone knows it. At this point, the only people you have to thank are yourselves.

[deleted]

I was referring to the free masons. I am not a free mason.

Mason detected

Nah, I'm actually trying to become one though :/

Why? (serious)

My friend Noah wanted me to become on. I was like, "dude...I'm not white.." but apparently, Asians can get in now if you're sponsored.

I'm an atheist too, but he said I should just lie about it. It would be fun. I moved away before we got a chance to try this out.

So you want to join a club whose only requirement is that you believe in a deity. And.... You don't believe in a deity. Fabulous.

You won't make it far as an atheist. You don't need any special sponsorship as an Asian to be a Mason. Every candidate needs two Masons to sponsor them.

Well, I hope you're ready for gang-rape the clandestine Mason night. Cheers.

My friend Noah wanted me to become on

where/why do they come on you?

From what I've read about Freemasonry, it sounds like the perfect thing for me to dedicate my time to. I've always viewed myself as a philanthropist and I've always wanted to share my religious knowledge with like-minded people, and with the community-driven nature of the fraternity I think I'd get a LOT out of it. It seems like a good outlet for my ideas and philosophies that I feel others could benefit a lot from.

why not

It's yet another private subreddit by me. It's now "banned" as well, private subreddits that aren't open to the public obviously can't be recreated and don't show up to everyone else.

You should start r/banned.

I think the point was missed - it's not banned, it most likely was created and then "deleted" or is private.

OMG REDDIT IS PART OF THE POST-ZIONIST-UFO-FLUORIDE-IN-OUR-DRINKING-WATER-CHEMTRAIL CONSPIRACY TOO

lol

No it isn't. You just can't get to it.

a subreddit about people that are freemasons would likely turn into "this guy is _____" and guy will have no way to refute or corroborate. maybe. hence the r/freemasonry

freemasons, not freemasonry, is the subject of the OP.

Why? (serious)
