As
a former Freemason I can assure you it was anti-fascist and
anti-authoritarian. It was mostly about the Enlightenment value of
rationality, as well as utilizing mythical symbolism and ritual to
induce individual enlightenment. It was a key instigator in both the
American and French revolutions. Nazis in fact persecuted and executed Freemasons as being antithetical to their hideous agenda.
Btw, a free copy of Pike's seminal book on the Scottish Rite can be found here. The blasphemous dedication reads:
"LUCIFER, the Light-bearer! Strange and mysterious name to give to the Spirit
of Darknesss! Lucifer, the Son of the Morning! Is it he who bears the
Light, and with its splendors intolerable blinds feeble, sensual or
selfish Souls ? Doubt it not!"
Another seminal tome is Manly Hall's The Secret Teachings of All Ages
