Freemasons are not a mafia organization; they are a fraternal organization with historical roots in medieval stonemasonry. Their primary focus is on moral and ethical improvement, charity, and community service. While they often face conspiracy theories and misconceptions, their activities are generally legal and transparent, unlike the clandestine and criminal nature of mafia groups. Freemasonry promotes fellowship and personal development rather than illicit activities.
