Freemasonry only has 3 “ranks”. The organizations that have other levels, like the Shriners, York Rite, Scottish Rite (created in France in the 19th century) aren’t organizationally or legally related to any actual Masonic grand lodge — they’re a completely separate organization that only accept 3rd degree masons— the highest Masonic rank — as members. The conspiracy theory information you cite can’t even keep basic facts straight about the way freemasonry operates. I’m not even a Mason— this information is really really easy to find online.

- chefandy 2y agoMasons deliberately don't respond to these sorts of things but few things tick me off quite as much as proud, confidently administered ignorance.
- greenavocado 2y agoKeep thinking Freemasons are irrelevant in the legal system. You are dead wrong.
- chefandy 2y agoOh, is that what I said? Or is that what you wish I said because you had a specious response to it pre-cooked? Does your response directly address anything I said? Are you sure you're responding to me and not some conceptual 'other side' that has predictable views that perfectly yin-yang curve around 'your side' because falling back into groupthink is a lot easier than having to actually read and think about what other people say, and be accountable for saying things that are easily provably completely incorrect? Are you sure that's not what's happening here?
