Karen Brewer and the Freemasons.
Freemasonry has rarely been the subject of fierce opposition in Australia and New Zealand. Karen Brewer, a conspiracy theorist par excellence, does just that.
Freemasons, according to Brewer, control parliament, the judiciary, the police and the public service in Australia and New Zealand. Not only that she claims that Freemasonry promotes pedophilia. She is also critical of Demolay, a little-known Masonic youth organisation that former United States President Barack Obama once belonged to.
Brewer has had run-ins with the law in New Zealand and Australia. The National Party of Australia federal parliamentarian Anne Webster won substantial damages against Brewer for defamation. Paul Barry, on the ABCs Media Watch program, claimed Webster was unlikely to receive the damages awarded to her from Brewer.
Brewer organises demonstrations outside the residence of the various state Governors and the Governor General in Australia and New Zealand.
The amount of support she has cannot be established with certainty, but a comment in The Australian newspaper that she may have 20,000 followers is possibly too many.
