i've always assumed the masons existed so that guys could get their dick sucked by other guys in secret and I mean that both literally as in gay fellatio and also in the sense of being a sycophant

Slop posts go in c/slop. Don't post low-hanging fruit here.
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
Secret society membership numbers really fell off after the Sasquatch hunting craze took off

Is that the freemasons fault or is that a joke about their very dull reality?
The corporate executives and politicians who maintain the status quo make up senior leadership to the point it is beyond coincidence and lean into the deliberate intention.
On one hand these secret societies are silly as hell on the other hand there’s some great freemason buildings in my city (no longer used by them) plus they’ve managed to make new friends as adults which is no small feat
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.
you will bowl all 10 frames!
COUSIN, I AM NO LONGER *ASKING* YOU TO GO BOWLING!


I don't think you need to pay people to attend so much as put in legal third-place protections so they can't be ratfucked into nonexistence by landlords but that'll never happen
I need to make an effort post about how third-spaces were thought up as a concept by a chud boomer. Until then watch this video in the background as you do something else https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=8E5MegoW2pA
it's called joining a communist party
I literally just joined a state sponsored softball league. It's completely free and the city pays for the umpires and parks
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

this dog is conspiring to keep doggy treats expensive
And making pet ownership a luxury experience with insanely high vet bills.
You know, if someone is going to join a 'secret' society, they should at least join one that's actually secret
My secret society is multidimensional anonymous. They provide sweet directors cut commentary on movie night.
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
My father is/was a Freemason. Idk if he still is, I've disowned him. I used to mow his Lodge's lawn for a bit of extra money as a kid.
Anyway it's been turned into an illuminati themed tavern.
Anyway it's been turned into an illuminati themed tavern
So, still Freemasons then
I'm guessing it's the exclusivity that makes the difference.
New World Order? More like New World Ordering a round of shots 
I've assumed for a while that freemasons are mostly chuds because of all the old people and the No PoLiTiCs rule.
I guess it depends on the 'branch'? I know a radical vegan hare Krishna Freemason.
New type of guy dropped
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.
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
Allende was a mason iirc
so was pinochet apparently 
Masonic infighting?..
the Chilean Coup aka the 666th Masonic civil war
why doesnt this guy just ring up the bilderburgs and rothschilds or whatever and tell them to cut it out smh
What's wrong with the Masons?! I'm a Mason! Hey, that fella's talkin' about me!
And that makes a difference, doesn't it?
on another instance i was asking whats th deal with freemasons and somebody made a freemason throwaway to answer our questions so assuming that was real they could be amongst us
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
Free Mason are fucking weird. They are ideology all over the place. My father in law and his family are all masons. My wife thought about joining back in what we call "the before times" back before our eggs cracked and we were more reactionary. And the stuff she would tell me is wild.
You have to spill the beans and tell all the good stories now 
Its been over the years. I've asked her to compile some things. She kind of had a moment realizing some of the things when she said "yeah I guess it's not a normal thing for a random stranger to come to my grandpa's funeral and give part of the eulogy"
I'll share what else she had to say when she isn't high lol.
Sweet
I never realized that Freemason outfits were so
Dweebish
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.
