Dear Mr. Mark Dice
For a while I thought your videos on youtube are very funny until I realized that you actually might mean what you are saying, although I still have my doubts if you are just making fun of your “followers” or if you are a modern pied piper who helps the powerful by distracting from the real aim, we (?) all have.
Let me bring your attention especially to the video regarding “Proof of conspiracy”.
You are quoting from this book (full title: “Proofs of a Conspiracy against all the Religions and Governments of Europe, carried on in the Secret Meetings of Fremasons, Illuminati and Reading Societies, etc., collected from good authorities” by John Robison and you also say that this is one of the earliest texts (at least you add: in English) about Adam Weisshaupt’s Illuminati and you get even excited by mentioning several times, that it was printed in 1798. But the fact that it was published in 1798 does not prove anything about the real work of the Illuminati. John Robison was one of the earliest “conspiracy theorists” and was very opposed to the original Illuminati for several reasons, and I will outline some here. That means: his book was very one-sided, opposed to the principles of the original Illuminati and to quote him – as a proof of the “satanic” doing of the Illuminati – is like quoting Adolf Hitler and his thoughts on world peace. You said in your “youtube” film that “this is source material”. No, it is not. What you do is bias or at least sloppy research.
Being himself a freemason, John Robison became very upset with the fact that Illuminati had infiltrated freemason groups and had spread thoughts of liberalism, freedom and anarchic principles. Fact 1: Illuminati and freemasons had different aims/targets and became enemies over the years. To throw them all into one jar nowadays is purely lack of research and an unprofessional try, to bend everything, so it becomes your own little truth, which has no scientific and proven background. His book “Proof of a conspiracy” is just a polemic and on the same ideological base with the ridiculous theory, that Illuminati, who are accused to want to dominate the world, use stupid pop stars/rappers to accomplish their aim. The title “media analyst” becomes a joke.
Fact 2: All Illuminati books, e.g. those written by Adam Weisshaupt and Freiherr von Knigge had been published long before John Robisons revenge with the Illuminati. The books:
„Die neuesten Arbeiten des Spartacus und Philo in dem Illuminaten-Orden“ 1794 von Adam Weishaupt und Adolph Franz Friedrich Ludwig Freiherr von Knigge
“Das verbesserte System der Illuminaten mit all seinen Einrichtungen und Graden” 1787 von Adam Weishaupt
„Nachtrag zur Rechtfertigung meiner Absichten“ 1787 von Adam Weishaupt
„Über die Kantischen Anschauungen“ 1787 von Adam Weishaupt
„Über die Selbstkenntnis, ihre Hindernisse und Vortheile 1794 von Adam Weisshaupt
These – and other books – which explain the thoughts of Adam Weishaupt and the ideas of the Illuminmati are available (for free!) on google books. I read most of them and/or I spoke to historians and scientists who read and analyzed them in depth. You did not read one of them. One reason: They are all in German language and have been never translated and the other reason: They would destroy your twisted view of the Illuminati and especially their work nowadays by (e.g.) using “satanic pop stars” to achieve their aims.
Let me remind you of the protocol/instructions, Adam Weishaupt gave as to the necessary qualifications of a candidate for initiation.
– Whoever does not close his ear to the lamentations of the miserable, nor his heart to gentle pity;
– whoever is the friend and brother of the unfortunate; whoever has a heart capable of love and friendship,
– whoever is steadfast in adversity, unwearied in the carrying out of whatever has been once engaged in, undaunted in the overcoming of difficulties;
– whoever does not mock and despise the weak; whose soul is susceptible of conceiving great designs, desirous of rising superior to all base motives, and of distinguishing itself by deeds of benevolence;
– whoever shuns idleness;
– whoever considers no knowledge as unessential which he may have the opportunity of acquiring, regarding the knowledge of mankind as his chief study;
– whoever, when truth and virtue are in question, despising the approbation of the multitude, is sufficiently courageous to follow the dictates of his own heart …
such a one is a proper candidate.
Now, Mark Dice, it is up to you to tell me what might be wrong with these qualifications. I see only noble motives.
The original Illuminati wanted to overthrow the rich and powerful, they fought against the mighty monarchies, the power and the suppression of the church and while your “beloved” John Robinson was quoted that the Illuminati wanted to “use” women for their purpose, the original words of the Illuminati meant “support of women’s education and gender equality”. Women all over the world are still struggling and fighting to reach this goal, which was clearly and unequivocally outlined by Adam Weishaupt’s Illuminati.
Here is an interesting quote: ““How did it come about that a revolutionary movement committed to the overthrow of corrupt European monarchies and privileged elites became, via the propaganda of its enemies, the very embodiment of everything it opposed? How can they be confused with the puppet masters who stand behind these tyrants of privilege and power? It’s absurd. Any person who knows anything of the history of the Illuminati should be able to see that their aims are incompatible with the aims commonly attributed to them by many anti-NWO conspiracy theorists.”
The Illuminati were discriminated against and persecuted by the powerful, the rulers and the church. Does this sound to you, that THEY were the “bad guys”?
The French Illuminati had some involvement in the French Revolution 1789, an event which nowadays still makes many French proud and the slogan “Liberté, Egalité, Fraternité” still stands for struggle of the suppressed worldwide. What on earth is wrong with that? When Robespierre, one of the leading figures of the French Revolution, turned against the principles of the revolution and established himself more and more as the dictator, the Brissotins (named after one French Illuminati Brissot) became his enemies and he persecuted the Illuminati.
If I would be a conspiracy theorist I could say “I outlined here, that all your doing is not only twisting the truth, but inventing an “own truth” which of course is very much in the interest of the powerful in this world who are probably very happy about your silly distraction from the real aim: fair wealth distribution, stopping man-made environmental catastrophes, fighting against slavery and suppression, etc.” Therefore I have shown that you are a candidate to be on the pay list of these powerful people. But I am not accusing you of being a puppet of the powerful, because I am not a conspiracy theorist. Quite the opposite: I want to discuss matters with you and like to start a real dialogue.
And we will see if you pick up the ball or if you carry on distracting from the aim to fight the powerful for a better world. Rihanna, Lady Gaga, Jay-Z, the record and film industry, who both jumped the bandwagon to create more customers and is probably laughing about your stupid accusations and “truth”, and especially “Lucifer” or secret signs, which have no meaning (and are of course not secret anymore, because you and all your followers have ruthlessly exposed them. And nobody ever asked: what on earth is the aim of these signs for those who do not want to share their wealth?).
You, the modern pied piper and your followers, who trail behind you like sheep – have this in common: None of you researched the topic, you all believe what you want to believe no matter how far from the truth it is and you distract from the real cause: A better world. Shame on you!
If you are against a New World Order, you must be happy with the Old World Order? I am not. I want a new world order. But WE can create it… and stop the powerful. But we will not achieve it when we believe that the bad guys are “Illuminati” and are (pick your choice of many “Anti-Illuminati groups”) either: reptile aliens, or Sir Evelyn Rothschild, the Pope, the Jews, Obama, the Federal Reserve, Rihanna or Jay-Z. (List is of course incomplete).
Because you have millions of clicks and you sell your books very well, I can therefore not say “stop this bullshit”, because you make a living with this nonsense.
Yours sincerely
Dirk van Appeldorn
PS: Because I am a German (excuse my bad English in the text), I might have a better view on German history than you. At least I informed myself… unlike you.
