The point is that the Anti-Masonry view is a tradition that has foundations in political populism and religious division, because such division is necessary in order to justify your needs.
Reading authors who are not speaking for all of Masonry and then concluding they speak for all of masonry confirms this hypothesis, because you are looking for a way to cause division in order to explain your anti-mason worldview.

I think you are correct in the tactics you mention. I'd also add that - whoever disagrees with an anti-mason - is a mason

I became anti Mason by reading the writings of Masons:
Manly P. Hall
J.D. Buck
C.W. "Lend a hand" Leadbeater
Foster Bailey
Albert Pike

Thank you.

Take a look around gentleman. The only posters left in this forum are the masons.
This is the ATS conspiracy theory website. This forum exists so that conspiracy theorists may discuss secret societies or any organizations historically or currently connected to our government etc.
I do believe, that the Masons doth protest, far too much.
This is a forum for open discussion of Masonry, I've said this countless times in light of your endless stone-walling and self-victimization.
There is no 'witch hunt' for Masons, only a conspiracy theory forum TRYING to get along with open discussion. If you cannot see with your own eyes that the Masons, not the 'anti-masons' are the ones controlling this forum : than I fully understand your motive behind making threads such as these. Otherwise, I suggest the Masons come down from their tree-fort and join in the discussion with the rest of us, and keep in mind, that this is the a conspiracy theory website, for conspiracy theorists, and NOT a 'no antis-allowed' clubhouse.
Keep up the good work,
Sincerely, the 'Anti-Masons'

Wow, 2nd thread in 1 week created by Masons to characterize me and my info as "Anti-Mason." Remember, you're the ones saying I'm "Anti" anything. I think Masonry is Anti-Freedom and I'm Pro-Freedom. Got it? Mason/agents knowingly lie and spew misinfo all day every day, they are Anti-Truth and I am Pro-Truth.

These two threads are trying to convince people that Masonry is wonderful and non-Mason researchers exposing the organization are bad. If anything you're proving how much you have to hide and how important this "ATS facade" of the benevolent Masons is to you.

Thank you. This is exactly what has happened in the Secret Societies forum and it only proves what we're saying! If Masons had nothing to hide, there wouldn't be a team of them, (like the DiGG bury brigade) waiting to pounce upon every good post.

If Masons had nothing to hide, it wouldn't be necessary for them to monitor ATS "defending their wonderful, benevolent" organization. If Masons had nothing to hide, any paranoid/crazy conspiracy theorists that started spouting non-sense would instantly be ignored.

Your attempts to appear victimized fail, yet again. If you look at the dates, you'll note that this OP is from SEVERAL months ago. Of course, I know as does everyone else on this board that you are the same anti-mason who was around here during that time. Thanks for providing more proof that your just using alternate screen names.
Now, are you going to dispute anything I said or continue your ranting? Perhaps you'd like to quote ONE peer reviewed source for any of your claims, or argue with the tens of sources I posted? Peer review. I highly recommend it.

Right. Which is why every time you create another slanderous post and a mason DOESNT respond immediately, you post a follow up asking why the Masons haven't responded and this must mean they cant counter your slanderous accusations. Yet another example that your just trolling.
