Reply to comment by enderandrew42 in eli5: What are freemasons and why are there so many conspiracies about them? by SovietCyka756
I never realized it was so democratic. Do y’all have initiatives to encourage democracy elsewhere? Or in general?

That's just what they "want" you to believe . . . LOL. Freemason here, too. I always laugh at the conspiracy nonsense. If anyone ever brings it up around me, I will play along, tell them I am a Freemason and that, when we DO finally takeover, I'll be put in charge of Togo.

Like, if someone orders food from your Lodge to take home, you'll handle it ?

This is hilarious. Had to give an award. Most of our time at the lodge is spent eating. Our only conspiracy is having the best fried fish I’ve ever had.

A brother Lodge to mine used to host an annual "Wild Game Night", as the majority were hunters and fishermen. Oh my God, the FOOD.
Arctic Char from the Northwest Territory
Wild Boar

Lol, reminds me of one of the first times I was in the US on business, going through a drive-through in a rental car, and the woman asked me at the window if it was to go or for here. I just kind of looked at her.
Apparently they can give you trays for people that like to sit in their cars in the parking lot and eat.

We avoid politics but encourage our members to be good members of their society.

That’s a bummer. A democratic club like that might have an opportunity to show off what a healthy democracy looks like. Most of the organizations that succeed in this simply ignore everything they doesn’t stay exactly on message and refuse to reply to a quickly churning news cycle with inevitably reactionary rhetoric.
