        Not mafia. All names I said are separate.

        They are more like boogaloo… sovereignty…

        It’s a group of men that believe in brotherhood over government and are willing to defend it.

        Where I live stolen goods mysteriously show up near their lodges but no one ever gets arrested. It’s a nation wide click of sovereign citizens whether they are crims or not the badges on the blazers get you easy connections nationwide. Free work free connections.

        Useful for criminal networking.

          Are you sure you’re not talking about the Hell’s Angels?

          Because the Masons definitely aren’t organized crime. They’re a formal society with silly secret handshakes. They haven’t been relevant politically since the Enlightenment.

          The organizations most-opposed to the Masons in the last century have been the Catholic Church, LDS church, and Nazi Germany (hundreds of thousands of Masons were killed in the Holocaust).

          They do have a problematic history with race and gender, which is why I have decided not to join them (I do have Masonic friends and family), but overall they’re pretty much the most-innocuous “secret society” there is.

          Yes, being a Mason can get you an inside scoop on a job opening. But that’s just how networking works. You can do the same thing with church connections, bowling leagues, alumni associations, professional organizations, and more.

          The masons are just a bunch of old men who get together to hang out and sometimes do charity work. They aren’t evil or really that mysterious. If you go to a lodge and ask for a tour they’ll likely show you around. They’re basically just weird churches. The one I’ve been to just had a large hall for ceremonies and a few other rooms. The foyer had a very large bible under glass IIRC, but its been more than a decade since then. They’re basically dying out because young people want nothing to do with that crap.
