Does anyone know about Giuseppe Mazzini? The say he created the ‘Mafia’, as well as sent Adam Weishaupht to create the Bavarian Illuminati.
From there it can be traced to Madame Blavatsky, the Ascended Masters and the Great White Brotherhood & Sisterhood, as well as the Dark version that was established in Luxor, Egypt. I even believe Aliester Crowley travelled there to study as a Rosicrucian, in some Indiana Jones type of evil research scenario. https://blavatskytheosophy.com/the-masters-and-madame-blavatsky/
The Skull and Crossbones ??????? is definitely a pirate thing aka admiral law, but also Skull and Bones of Yale University, as well as the death squads of the Waffen SS.
