Fairly wealthy angel investor here, enough that I've met and hung out with far wealthier people. The "illuminati" means a lot of things to a lot of people.
It does exist, in the sense that billionaires are conspiring to control all the world's wealth through government, taxation, laws, land, natural resources etc.
Where a lot of you conspiracy guys fail is calling them lizard shapeshifters or that they have a plan to kill billions of you.
Why would the farmer kill his flock? You are the product, the more of you, the better.
Just like any street gang conspires to own their neighborhood, the resources and the revenue, rich people do the same, it's simply that billions of dollars buys you a lot more influence and control.
They are dangerous to those who cause them issues. Charlamangne would be invited to one of the big illuminati hedge funds for one of two reasons, but probably a combination of both.
He can be used to create conflict and or distraction, like the black lives matter bullshit he doesn't give a fuck about, or just entertaining kanye west interviews.
Some people there might be fans and when you have that kind of money and summon a person, they come see you.
This is how major music artists, actors etc are used. No, they do not need to drink blood, worship satan, or take illuminati old white dude dicks in the ass, they simply are used to help push the agendas of the elite and they do so willingly for money and fame.
For every "star" that puts up protest or fight, no problem, career over, next pretty face in line.
They do not need to get them addicted to drugs or assassinate them, they just let a person with no morals self destruct on their own when the money and fame runs out.
The illuminati do not worship the devil "the enlightened ones" refer to themselves that way because they know the truth, there is no religion, no god or devil, no punishment for taking whatever you want from others, no karma. Those are all things created by the elite to control the population, to scare them into not competing, or challenging them, or worse.
Any weird rituals you see are just a bunch of fucked up guys letting off steam, no different than any weird frat house thing.
When drunk guys in frats dress up as women and do weird shit, no one thinks its devil worship, it's just that a percentage of dudes are fucking weirdos and like doing that shit. Some guys play along to stay in the club but you can bet most of the guys who attend bohemian grove and other weirdo parties think it's stupid and gay as fuck but hey, playing along could mean millions of dollars for them, maybe even becoming President in 20 years.
I once did whip-its with Sean Fanning in his multi-million dollar apartment, we met at a business event and he invited me back. It was one of the strangest experiences of my life, I figured I might be getting my illuminati membership card, but sadly, I just ended up going back to my hotel after 8 hours of talking about tech companies.
