How influential were Enlightenment era secret societies? Were they directly behind big events or was it just a coincidence that big names in history were members of these societies?
Friendly bump because this interests me as well.
There's a reason Masons on both the Catholic and Orthodox shitlists
The "Enlightenment" only happened at all because of Luciferians. They run things now.
>Hey, Jim, how's the wife treating you? Great, great. Listen, Jim, I'm really trying to clean up around here at the department and there's a really excellent position open for undersecretary to the department of housing. I know you've got a little background in housing, and hell if I'm going to hire some layman off the street when we go way back [with the Skull & Cyanide Secret Lucifer Club for Men], so would you be interested? Great, great. I'll send the paperwork over. It's good to know I've got trustworthy people in these positions. Thanks, Jim.

Enlightenment values and Hegel are a rationalist version of patriarchal Christian values where God, Providential Reason, is a mind which sees and knows everything (the Panopticon).

No.
Why is that important? Luciferians could have orchestrated the Enlightenment without the Devil being real.

I believe in Atomism, 1984, Hegelian Fascism, Slavoj Zizek, Wittgenstein's Philosophical Investigations, and Nietzsche's Superman.
No it's not a coincidence, but that doesn't mean they pulled everyone's strings either.
Wealthy, influential people liked to join secret societies, it was fashionable. At the same time, wealthy, influential people obviously had a major impact on the course of world events.
You can often find members of the same society on either side of a war or civil conflict. There were royalists and republicans alike in the freemasons.
