Occult Mafia Part 4: Pinocchio's Pleasure Island, Memphis-Misraïm & the 'Ndrangheta

Was Pinocchio's Pleasure Island merely a children's story—or was it inspired by deeper currents flowing through the hidden history of Italy?In the final Part 4 of the Occult Mafia series, Joel Thomas follows the trail from Giuseppe Mazzini's revolutionary networks into the world of Egyptian Freemasonry, the Memphis-Misraïm Rite, and the rise of the criminal brotherhoods that would eventually establish themselves in the United States.This episode explores the connections between Memphis-Misraïm Masonry, Giuseppe Garibaldi, Young Italy, New Orleans, Tammany Hall, the Palermo Brotherhood, and the emergence of the American Mafia. Along the way, Joel examines the symbolism of Pleasure Island, the transformation of boys into donkeys within the Pinocchio story, and how these themes may mirror systems of initiation, manipulation, and social engineering hidden beneath the surface of modern history.
