Don’t fret about any ‘background checks’.

They say “do you believe in god yes/no” and “are you conspiring to overthrow the government yes/no” with a bored look on their face. They’re obliged to ask this because of traditional rules. It is a box-ticking.

thanks for the info

ok.ru/video is better

I feel like most have misunderstood the point of the question, they offer to use newpipe, yt-dlp and the like, but those aren’t private, they just allow you to watch without signing in, just as you could through the official website with maybe uBlock origin, you’re still exposing your IP.

This implies invidious and piped hide your IP address, which I’m not sure is true.

Most EU countries weren’t in the Axis.

Search ‘freemason hall [city]’ if you don’t believe me: it’s all out in the open.

I passed the background checks and I am just a turtle on a skateboard.

The halls are visible to the public. Our friends and family know we are Masons. We have registered charities and bank accounts. The only real secrets are the passwords and handshakes.

my experience has been that don’t appreciate agnostics and pagans in there midsts.

my experience is contrary to this. Few people really believe in religion in 2024, it’s not like the pious times in which the rites originated.

In practice, you don’t have to believe in god to be a mason. Although that rule is still around.

That is another misconception. The ceremonies are in books and on the internet. The only real secret is the means-of-identification.

I wonder if it’s only in my country, that they are told to protect israel? I read that in a freemasons documents, that I found on his computer in a totally legal way…

Uhmmm two of my lodge members have been bombed by Israel during their military service hahaha. We are not fans.

Did your organisation also have to change opsec these past 10 years?

I haven’t been in it 10 years.

Uuh and are you also encouraged to do business with other masons, to keep accumulating wealth?

No. Although one can only do business with people one knows, and I know Masons.
