Translation of Dimitrov’s “Masonic lodges are a national danger”

There is a thing that the bourgeoisies absolutely censor, a subject that The imperialist bourgeoise absolutely doesn’t want to talk about : this is the bourgeoisie itself, its organizations, its links, its sects, its names…

This was one of the main objects of attacks against the MAC since these 3 years of activity : that we dare to look at the names of the imperialist cosmopolitan bourgeoisie, its weapons, its methods, its organizations, its religion… That we dare to investigate its formation. 

One of these things that the  cabals and their lackeys don’t want us to talk about is obviously Freemasonry : The position of MAC is clear on this subject (you can read many works written by Jacob Volker in the archives of this website) but in short, we regard Masonic ideology as a bourgeois liberal ideology, progressive by the past under Feudalism, now reactionary under Imperialism, promoting global market, cosmopolitanism and a World Imperialist Order while their organizational methods are efficient for meeting-ups between the cosmopolitan bourgeoisies, as a kind of international meeting point for the global elites similar to how the multiple Internationals were meeting points for the international proletariat. 

This is why we are happy to translate for you this piece of work by Georgi Dimitrov, written in 1946, which is unfortunately not findable on marxists.org for obscure reasons… Good reading :

Masonic lodges are a national danger

 Often the public is surprised that well-known statesmen change their positions quickly and seemingly completely unreasonably on very significant issues regarding our state and our nation, or say one thing and do the exact opposite.

 For superficial observation, this is something illogical and completely incomprehensible. For those who are familiar with the activities of various Masonic lodges, the question is clear. 

These figures, as members of Masonic lodges, usually receive suggestions and directives from the respective lodge and submit to its discipline, contrary to the interests of the people and the country. 

 Bulgarians cease to have their Bulgarian will, lose their independence and neglect their duties to their people and their homeland. There is a lot of data from which it is clear that Masonic lodges are being restored in our country. They gather old Bulgarian Freemasons and diligently recruit new Freemasons among statesmen and public figures. Masonic lodges at the present time are someone else’s espionage and treacherous agents. It poses a danger to the freedom and independence of our people and our country. 

We sound the alarm against these anti-people nests. The people should be especially vigilant towards Masonic lodges. The organs of the people’s power must take action against these pernicious secret organizations. 

It is necessary that everyone understands that it is incompatible to be a Bulgarian statesman and public figure – a minister, deputy, head of a political party or public organization, and at the same time to be a Freemason, dependent on someone else’s will and someone else’s discipline. Masonic lodges are a national danger to our homeland, and they certainly need to be eliminated.
