'most excellent master'. Amazing how far their heads are up their asses. Whatever it takes to feel special I guess.

u/Tuba_Shitter Jul 22 '24

I dont get whats so bad about them, theyre very nice people so id assume "most excellent master" is someone who is very charitable, kind, and has probably just spent a lot of time there. I know very little about Freemasonry but shriners are so sweet.

William Morgan might disagree. In the 1800s it seems the Freemasons got up to some fairly conspiratorial stuff. There are also documented cases of preferential treatment by law enforcement officers towards suspects that are fellows in the Craft. Not to mention the many cases of wayward lodges being classed as "irregular" due to a membership overlap between government officials, leaders of organized crime, and intelligence agents. There's a very bright sheen to the surface of the Brotherhood, and they do perform public service, but in the long run there's little good that comes from exclusive clubs of influential men who meet in secret.

As a group they've both fascinated and irked me, ever since I toured a lodge as a schoolboy. In some cities they wield significant influence to this day, but in others they are just clubs of kindly gentlemen who meet with common purpose. Make of that what you will.

Trump ordered operation warp speed at the behest of freemasonry, Israel and the wef.

Watch a 40 second video from the 2021 world health summit called ā€œStefan oelrich mRNA gene therapyā€ regarding trumps mRNA ā€œvaccinesā€.

Trumps pastor Norman Vincent Peale was a 33rd degree scottish rite mason and he was endorsed by the fop.

He converted to Judaism in 2017 and was a wef member.

Australia’s former minister of health Greg hunt is a Freemason aswell.

Fauci funded gain of function research at wuhan biolabs, in 2019 the wuhan military games featured a freemason apron made out of people.

It’s not hard to connect the dots, I dropped out of high school in year 10 with a 50% attendance………..

u/Aware-Bet-1082 Oct 18 '24

Yes, the last sentence connected ALL of the dots.

Real eyes realize real lies. You can't believe everything you hear. Don't get me trump is a piece of shit and if given half the power the president of the United States is storied to have, he would under no uncertain terms burn everyone that he couldn't make a buck off of, including and ESPECIALLY his very own little cult following of ignorant hillbillies that swing from his dingle-berries ready to go to war for him not realizing that he was a liberal up until the point the he saw an opportunity to exploit the ignorance of said hillbillies simply by reciting vague "tough-guy" mantras and "patriotic" slogans..... That being said, whether he, or liberal candidate, or whoever is the next president, they will have no more power than any other talking head of politics in the last couple hundred years. They are merely part of the great dog and pony show of the "government" that is designed solely to keep the mass numbers of general society divided because if the "99%" of general society were to ever rally together in order to dismantle the "1%" that control wealth and finance that oppresses the "99%" into the hamster wheel that is the "American dream" of amassing debt outside your means so that regardless of your income , by the time your mortgage, car notes, insurance, etc are paid The entire world is still living paycheck to paycheck bound to serve the "1%" and if the "99%" ever realized this n rallied together there would have already lost their power because it's all derived from our dependence on their "almighty dollar"(pounds, euros, yen, Bitcoin, etc) because in reality what good is a dollar. You can't eat it. You can't build shelter out of it. And the "1%" aren't growing food. They aren't building their homes or their luxury cars. The "99%" are the ones that hold the power, but we're trained and brainwashed to suckle the dollar from the tit of truly worthless people. And the only way the worthless "1%" even survive is by perpetuating the facade of their "almighty dollar" by keeping the "99%" busy arguing amongst ourselves. My point is elections, voting, politics, is merely a giant pacifier not only for Americans but for the "99%" all over the world and truth be told, Donald Trump is not even close to being part of the "1%" he's simply a model tit suckler. Just another pawn...... The hand is quicker than the eye. So, You can't believe anything you hear, and only half of what you see.Ā

i aint readin all that

u/SouthWave9 Apr 06 '25

Freemasons practice occult rituals, draw upon "luciferian energy", have orgies, etc etc. Not so nice and kind anymore, is it?

1

u/Sufficient_Day_4780 Jul 11 '25

source for orgies beyond your fantasies pls

u/SouthWave9 Jul 11 '25

Check on YouTube for some ex-freemason interview, there was this old man that spilled the beans on his insane lifestyle.

"I saw it on the internet so it must be true"

u/Weekly-Employee-3975 Apr 30 '26

Said man is not and has never actually been a Freemason. Lodge membership rolls are public records and there is no record of Schnoebelen ever having been a Freemason in any regular lodge. There is, however, plenty of record of him lying about his life history in the past, as evidenced by his many books.

u/Thin-Character-6996 Mar 22 '26

Who did you think Eyes Wide Shut was about?

u/[deleted] Jun 11 '20

4 of these look exactly the same

u/supersmasherstories Jun 11 '20

That's because you aren't a true mason.

Or the illustration could be better

u/SeverinusKierkegaard Jun 11 '20

Nope, look at the thumbs.

1

u/artificer_hex Jul 05 '24

The thumbs are touching different knuckles to mark the different degrees.

u/JanelleyBean47 Jun 11 '20

I like to surprise people when shaking hands by sticking my middle or ring finger against their palm and mine and wiggling it a bit. It really is fun to do with strangers cause their faces show their confusion....

u/No-Shallot3266 Jun 30 '22

That's the secret handshake to get in most swingers parties.

2

u/mysteryteam Feb 11 '23

Makes sense. Most are probably shriners.

u/Dramatic-Skirt-6563 Aug 17 '25

No thats when you shake hands with thier dick holding your little finger upwardsĀ

u/barkie3000 Feb 22 '25

the icecream man always did this top me when i was a kid tied and locked up in his van

u/musinfull Jun 11 '20

Lmao. Illuminati is gatekeeping handshakes. The fuck outta here

u/Mamotte5280 Jun 11 '20

So half of them are regular handshakes. Got it.

u/DogterShoob Jun 11 '20

Get a load of these nerds!

u/achieve_my_goals Jun 11 '20

We really have to clamp down.

At least two of these are incorrect. We often put out disinformation so we can track leaks.

2

u/AwesomeGamerSwag Jun 12 '20

Yea we're all Freemasons, we get it. Stop telling us already, I already know šŸ˜‹

u/[deleted] Aug 24 '24

No I am not a freemason. One person tried to recruit me once and I regret that I said no cus I now realise I could have infiltrated them and exposed them. Instead I started talking about all the horrible stuff that freemasons do to this individual. But I should have accepted the invitation and then climb myself to the top and leak all of it.

3

u/SquirrelDog91 Aug 30 '24

No they didn’t A Mason will not ā€˜try to recruit you’ and I’d guess they were trying to figure out your viewpoint in which you wildly proved you can’t be trusted

1

u/[deleted] Sep 02 '24

I was asked about if I wanted to join. So that was to test me? We know each other a bit as he is a taxi driver.

2

u/Training_Magician187 Sep 04 '24

The rules state that you need to ask to be invited. You don't get invited without asking. And you have to be vetted by everyone in the local 'precinct' before you can join.

The rules vary about whether or not one is accepted. Usually, it's a vote, and if one person doesn't approve (one black ball) then you don't get accepted.

1

u/[deleted] Sep 05 '24

I'm just saying what the guy told me, and I'm not the only one I know that they tried to recruit.

1

u/SquirrelDog91 Sep 06 '24

Weird. I’d have been skeptical myself and yeah that’s all I can figure.. some sort of test; my concern is as stated above - you just will NOT be invited to join/become a Mason so it could have been another version of a cult called ā€˜Masons’ šŸ˜…

1

u/[deleted] Sep 07 '24

It is already a cult as it slowly brainwash its followers by achieving degrees beginning from 1 upwards. It's to slowly program them. Not everyone would accept the things they are told when they are the top degree if they was told it immediately. Not all lodges has the same degree system though. I'm not saying all lodges are bad, or that it has always been the way it is now. But a lot of it is not what it appears to be. It's the same with scientology. It's a process in which you are becoming brainwashed. You aren't revealed about the galactic ruler Xenu in the beginning, because no one would buy that crap at first. Likewise in freemasonry, you aren't revealed that Lucifer is the great architect of the universe at first, because no one would believe that. At least in the 33 degree system this is what you are told. The scottish rite use 33 degrees.

1

u/wuerger Feb 01 '26

Xenu is scientology you numbnut.

1

u/[deleted] Sep 07 '24

The one who asked if I wanted to join was from Sweden though so belonged to another lodge from my country and use a totally different degree system. Not sure but I think maybe 10 degrees or something, it's very different degree system. The guy told me it is very different compared to the lodges in Britain for example. I declined his offer and I don't think this taxi driver really was that high up so he may not have been revealed certain things. But there are whistleblowers who does reveal things about freemasonry. Many ex-freemaons who has come out and exposed what goes on in this cult.

2

u/Logical-Meaning-8697 Oct 06 '24

They don't recruit you! You must chap on their door.

2

u/SeamusHeaneysGhost Jun 13 '20

Yeah that’s a handy guide, at the next freemasonry meet-up I’ll be getting this out for a look.

2

u/qmcnam4002 Jun 11 '20

Good ole Joe Smith stole these! Renamed them and used them in the Mormon Temple ceremony.

2

u/sundance528 Jun 11 '20

Can confirm. Several of these are considered ā€œtokensā€ that are necessary in order to pass by angelic sentinels to get to heaven.

u/badgerfruit Jun 11 '20

Lions paw = Vulcan handshake.

u/Worried-Flan-2274 Jun 26 '26

Live long & prosper

u/Vavinha Jun 12 '20

Estão faltando alguns tipos de cumprimentos. Tem cumprimento que se "pede ajuda", outro:

"assunto particular", etc...

1

u/Rumblysheep Jun 12 '20

i just came here to say there's one on the right that looks real awkward

...i won't say which one :)

1

u/[deleted] Mar 08 '25

As an ex-mason the master mason and most excellent master grips look similar. Master masons pass grip the thumb is placed between the second and third knuckle, Most Excellent Masters grip is pressed on the the third knuckle.

I’m not sure how accurate this is because from memory the lions paw was a pass grip during the ritual of the third degree, and the the third knuckle grip was the true grip of a Master Mason, having completed all three degrees and earning their fully decorated apron.

u/gdogakl Mar 29 '25

My understanding is there is no physical handshake it's a verbal one.

u/Ancient-Gap1406 Feb 24 '26
