The big change now is that politicians, particularly Donald Trump, are starting to use conspiracies to mobilise support.” Rap's Illuminati talk wasn't just a one-time fad, however. The fervor died down a bit, right up until 2008, when Prodigy published an open letter he’d written in jail to URB magazine, alleging that his old rival Jay Z “promotes the lifestyle of the beast.” Hip-hop culture—the innovator of so many popular fashions, styles, and sounds—rarely sees trends with such extended lifelines. And as usual, this trend among rappers has crossed over to pop culture in a big way. Printed sermons were followed by newspaper accounts and these figured in the partisan political discourse leading up to the 1800 U.S. presidential election. [27] The subsequent panic also contributed to the development of gothic literature in the United States. At least two novels from the period make reference to the crisis: Ormond; or, The Secret Witness (1799) and Julia, and the Illuminated Baron (1800). [28] Some scholars, moreover, have linked the panic over the alleged Illuminati conspiracy to fears about immigration from the Caribbean and about potential slave rebellions. [26] Concern died down in the first decade of the 1800s, although it revived from time to time in the Anti-Masonic movement of the 1820s and 30s. [4] Modern Illuminati
In the Street Fighter video game series, the Illuminati (also called the Secret Society) is a shady organisation led by Gill, who wishes to find a utopia for all humans. They are most prominent in the Street Fighter III games as a crime organisation similar to Shadaloo. [18] Murali Gopy talks about the Illuminati references in Lucifer - Times of India".

A Culture of Conspiracy: Apocalyptic Visions in Contemporary America. Comparative Studies in Religion and Society. Berkeley: University of California Press. ISBN 978-0-520-23805-3. Who killed JFK? The Kennedy conspiracy theories Katy Perry conspiracy theories: from Illuminati to JonBenet Ramsey ‘Great replacement’: what is the conspiracy theory? In the final weeks before the 2020 election, the outsize role of conspiracy theories in American politics has become unmistakable. For some Trump supporters in particular, campaign-season news is filtered through the powerful idea that hidden forces are at work, that the “ deep state”—a supposed secret, shadowy and sinister group of leftist politicians, government bureaucrats, Chinese scientists, journalists, academics and intellectuals—is seeking to destroy American values. Seen through that lens, COVID-19, which has killed nearly 200,000 Americans, is a “hoax”; some even believe that Anthony Fauci is a “ deep state doctor.” If there are Illuminati, conspiracy theorists probably aren't going to be very happy when they see how much power the group doesn't have. And, if they do exist, they may be completely different than what the conspiracy theorists have cooked up. Secret societies have been around for ages, but for one with the power to influence world events and shape history to its will? That would be extraordinary. But, it's hard to definitively say that they don't exist. In fact, you probably can't. So the only "proof" you're going to get is the kind that debunks single theories (like Reptilians), and not the existence of the group as a whole. It's an unfalsifiable theory.
Have you noticed how a lot of musicians have been covering one eye when posing for photos? Or making some kind of triangle with their hands? Or both? And what’s up with all the occult imagery in videos for Jay Z’s “On to the Next One” and Kanye’s “Power”? Is it just because it looks cool and mysterious? According to the YouTuber known as shane, the Illuminati murdered Walker after he threatened to expose the group. The story goes that Walker was involved in charity work when he came across a bunch of wrongdoings like embezzlement behind the scenes that he wanted to go public with. Of course, the Illuminati couldn’t let that happen and took him out via drone strike. The presentation below about predictive programming is also very good, but it might be too advanced for "newbies" as it mentions Universal/NaturalLaw, The Mandela Effect and retrocausality, which you probably won't understand if you don't know anything about quantum theory. You can watch the highlighted videos if you want to dig deeper after you've seen the presentation. When Slim Shady reached worldwide phenom status in the late 90s, the Illuminati approached him (as they do with all up and coming superstars) to see how willing he would be to join their gang of ultra-powerful miscreants. Shady foolishly declined, and was thus sent off to meet his demise in a fatal car crash. Or as far as the rest of the world was concerned, Eminem went to “rehab.” There’s no one profile of a conspiracy theorist,” says Viren Swami, professor of social psychology at Anglia Ruskin University. “There are different perspectives of why people believe in these theories, and they’re not necessarily mutually exclusive – so the simplest form of explanation is that people who believe in conspiracy theories are suffering from some sort of psychopathology.”
Umberto Eco's Foucault's Pendulum is a labyrinthine 1988 novel about all sorts of secret societies, including the Illuminati and the Rosicrucians. [7] But, he continues, “I believe in secret societies. I joined a fraternity. There are all sorts of secret connections and relationships that go on. I just think there are people in power, and people in power can make decisions.” Jimi Hendrix was labeled a subversive person by the U.S. government, which employs many members of the Illuminati. He was very paranoid in the days leading up to his death, and he often spoke about dying before he reached the age of 30. Jimi Hendrix died after choking on his own vomit on September 18, 1970.
The book extolled an alternative belief system – Discordianism – which preached a form of anarchism and gave birth to the Discordian movement, which ultimately wished to cause civil disobedience through practical jokes and hoaxes.

The Proof: This March 22, 1994 Hollywood Reporter article, which reads, "A rumor is currently making the rounds in Manhattan, fanned by no less than the former son-in-law of a distinguished Academy Award winner, to wit that last year Marisa Tomei received her Oscar statue by error, with a resultant scandal about it soon to be exposed, much to the shame of the Academy." There’s the classic “a-ok” symbol, which apparently means the devil’s number ‘666.’ He also frequently makes the triangle symbol with his hands when he’s sitting at ease — which could be the same Illuminati gesture Jay-Z’s always making, or a reference to vagina. Whatever floats your boat. Then, there’s the super weird rumor that Perry is actually JonBenet Ramsey who, according to conspiracy theorists, was actually kidnapped by the Illuminati. Perry has even referenced the secret group herself. In an interview with Rolling Stone , the singer said, "if the Illuminati exist, I would like to be invited! I see all that shit, and I'm like, 'Come on, let me in! I want to be in the club!'” So whether ‘Dark Horse’ is her way of courting the Illuminati or revealing that she’s already in it … we’re on to you, JonBenet — I mean Katy.Most of the group’s secrets were disclosed or published, and, if you believe most historians, the Illuminati disappeared,” said Vox. Yet, from the moment the real-life group disbanded, “the myth expanded”. How did the myth develop?
