There actually were Communists and bandits ~ lots of bandits ~ still lots of bandits and one of the major political parties is certainly Communist influenced even today.
But hasn't the regime always been very suspicious of outside influences ~ like since Cortes showed up?
I think it was mostly reds who caused the anti-church movement and the killing of priests and nuns. At one point the leftist President of Mexico was assassinated. Such things could come to this land. How many would fight to secure religious freedom in the US?
At any rate, the Jesuits, and other historical sources, list that Freemasons were in control of Mexico during the regime of Calles.
Lenin's mother was a Freemason, so I imagine that Lenin either was a Freemason or had Freemason influences.
At any rate, both the the red dragon [communism], and Freemasonry [referred to as the beast in messages to Father Stefan Gobbi are enemies of the Roman Catholic Church.
A person that I personally put much faith in is Josyp Terelya, who was saved from death at the hands of the KGB by a supernatural power. He felt Freemasonry was a significant threat to the Roman Catholic Church.
He writes about this in his books:
Witness, which is autobiography, and:
In the Kingdom of the Spirit
The article is utter BS! “topher” and his friends need to put a cork in it and get a life.

In the U.S. there ARE NO Freemasons who are atheists. NONE!
To the best of my knowledge there are none in Mexico.
There is NO EVIDENCE that Leon Trotsky was a Freemason.
It is impossible for Lenin’s mother to have been a Freemason because there are no women Masons.
There is a difference in European Masons and those in the U.S. and England. They do not associate among each other.
There ARE Catholic who are also Masons and there is nothing prohibiting a Catholic from being a Mason. I have lots of K of C friends and we get along fine. We are even know to work on common projects in some communities.

I have been a Freemason since I was 21 and I will be 64 in December. This is a subject that I have some first hand knowledge about.
We have enough battles to fight with the Lefties and don’t need nonsense like this dividing us.
Calles, Allende, Bolivar... all the legendary Latin America anti-clericists (except Che) were freemasons. I’m not aware of any source which denies any of them.
