I'll Send Your Orders In The Morning
Right now I'm busy with my weird sex rituals
This is a very interesting day. We have a total eclipse of the sun over parts of the United States today.
You know what that means, don’t ya?
That’s right! It means that NASA is using the opportunity to shoot rockets at three different moons. The United States Government is launching balloons filled with poison during the resulting minutes of darkness. CERN over in Europe is opening a black hole. And the Freemasons, around the world, are performing weird sex rituals.
Why is all of this going on? Why is the US poisoning its citizens, NASA shooting moons, the Europeans opening a black hole, and the Freemasons having orgies in their Lodge rooms?
Well, to bring about world domination of course!
The New World Order!
The ‘elites’ are taking the opportunity provided by this eclipse to finally take over the world, finally and forever subjugating the mass of humanity.
But don’t worry, the process will go OK, the National Guard has been deployed. You’ll get an easy choice, submit to your new rulers, or die!
Now the good news is, I just happen to be a Grand Master of Masons. And I have a friend who works for CERN, and I know two guys who help design rockets!
So, I figure that undoubtedly makes me one of the new ruling ‘elites.’
I’ll send you your marching orders in the morning. I’d do it now, but I’m far too busy with my Masonic sex rituals at the moment.
Now the good news is that since you are reading this, you know that what I’ve written above is complete nonsense.
The bad news is that the conspiracy theory I wrote about above is actually believed to be true by people throughout our country. People so disconnected from reality that they fall for this nonsense, peddled by crooks, con-men, and lunatics. Just one video outlining the above ‘conspiracy’ has apparently been viewed over a million times.
And that’s scary. It’s scary because we can’t have a rational society if it is filled with irrational people.
It’s also scary because it is a very short leap for someone to believe that the Mason (or NASA employee, or whomever) that lives next door is part of an evil conspiracy and should be killed in order to protect society.
I do not argue that the Government, any Government (or any communications platform for that matter) should suppress or censor nonsense like this.
But I do argue that we, as rational people, should challenge lies when we encounter them. Fight irrationality with rationality. Counter bad speech with good speech. Only in those ways can we drown lies with truth.

Very good article. Unfortunately, there are many misconceptions about Freemasonry.
There are, of course, cases when it is an unintentional misrepresentation. From time to time I come across cases where even a poorly worded sentence leads to a misunderstanding. After that, others are able to build a complete conspiracy theory on this one sentence, as a single quote.
Perhaps the best thing we can do is try to refute those who spread such delusions. Of course, the process cannot be prevented, but if we are able to reduce it, that is also a great success.
I spent most of my life as a deputy sheriff and police officer in a large city, a city that hates its police. I chose to not live in that city because of that. For many of years and since I have retired I have been very discrete in announcing that I am or was a policeman. Now, having been a mason for over 35 years I am very discrete in showing off that I am one. No vehicle stickers, no masonic jewlery, not clothing that has masonic emblems on them. I am truly one of the secret society members who is very secret about it. And now more than ever because of the nutters out there who might just see my masonic baseball cap and attack me.
