This cult like obsession with brotherhood is not just Neofascist but overtly Fascist. Frat boys I have
been acquainted with, through an ex girlfriend, were vile immature caricatures of men. They pride themselves on being adults but for some reason after two beers they can't pull it off.

All that masonic secret handshake stuff is pathetic. It's only so-called conservatives that support these institutions whose only purpose is to keep white males in power.
