At the close of the French and Indian Wars, in the last half of the 18th century, there were about 50 military lodges in the Colonies. They were warranted by both the Ancient and Modern Grand Lodges of England, and by the Grand Lodges of Scotland, Ireland, and the Provincial Grand Lodges of Massachusetts, Pennsylvania and New York. At the time hostilities started in the Revolution, the number of military lodges had increased about 50 per cent. At the close of the French and Indian Wars there were, in addition to the military lodges, about one hundred lodges warranted by the Grand Lodges previously named. Military lodges greatly accelerated the growth of Colonial Freemasonry.
One Freemason, mentioned but little, left a work that has endured throughout the years. Amos Doolittle, a native of Connecticut, served in the Colonial Army under Benedict Arnold, and made the engravings of the skirmish at Lexington which have been reproduced many times. mastermason

Actually fascism is defined as "Fascism, , is a radical and authoritarian nationalist political ideology. Fascists seek to organize a nation on corporatist perspectives; values; and systems such as the political system and the economy."
I'm no fan of the last few administrations, but I do not stand with anarchists or marxists. I still believe in freedom.
And the point? Notice it did not say that Masonry excelerated the growth of Colonialism.
Military lodges greatly accelerated the growth of Colonial Freemasonry. Source.
In the colonies, Masonry's long-established associations with men of prominence ( such as military officers and colonial governors) made it attractive to rising men who sought status and power to accompany their wealth. Local lodges were willing to admit some men of humble origins, but colonial Masons made every effort to ensure the respectability of the brotherhood by regulating the membership, conducting elaborate public ceremonials, and keeping leadership positions in the hands of the most respectable brethren.
The brotherhood was thus instrumental in the making of a colonial middle class and defining its boundaries at the very moment its male constituents were entering into power sharing arrangements with traditional elites The brotherhood that was initially open to all men was, after the age of revolution, dominated by loyalist, Protestant, respectable white men.
By the last third of the nineteenth century, the Masonic brotherhood had become an unquestioning ally of the British imperial state. It took part in various efforts to shore up the empire in the face of internal and external pressures during the age of high imperialism. Imperial proconsuls like Kitchener, Wolseley, and Connaught considered Freemasonry a valuable ally not only as they governed and defended the empire but also as they pursued the imperialist mission of making the empire a source of national strength.

Reacting against Freemasonry's elasticity during the previous century, grand lodge officals fought and won a struggle to gain control over the brotherhood by concsiously identifying the brotherhood with loyalty to the state. Meanwhile, as the Catholic Chirch waged a sustained campaign against worldwide Freemasonry, the brotherhood became a primarily Protestant institution.
If you still can't see anything, I would suggest you to use some psychology techniques to deprogram yourself.

Masonry arrived in the Colonies in 1682 when John Skene of Aberdeen Lodge, came to Burlington, New Jersey. Nothing much more is known of him. Over the next 50 years Colonial Freemasons exercised the immemorial right of Masons to form a lodge and make Masons. Coil reports evidence that although no chartered lodge existed in the Colonies, a lodge was held in King’s Chapel in Boston in 1720, and that the Boston News Letter for May 25, 1727 gave a detailed account of the Grand Lodge meeting in London. source.
It was during this period, 1670-1759, that Freemasonry seriously came to North Amer- ica. English, Irish and Scottish Military Lodges brought it with them. Its concepts slowly caught on with the thinking men in the colonies. Source.
The Southern point of Africa, the Cape of Good Hope, was opened up by the Dutch East India Company as a trading station to supply ships on the route to the East Indies with fresh produce. Freemasonry in the Netherlands, founded in 1756, was expanding rapidly and, with many masters of ships being Freemasons, it was natural for a Lodge to be founded at this halfway station under the banner of the Grand East of the Netherlands (G.E.N.). Source.
Q). When did Freemasonry come to India? A). The honor of receiving Freemasonry in India goes to Calcutta. In 1730 officers of the East Indian Company held their meetings in Fort William, Calcutta. The number given to the Lodge was 72 masonindia
Freemasons as a tool of conversion to Capitalism.
The monarchy were subsequently, similarly indoctrinated into Freemasonry.
The original colonists, pure Capitalists, secondary occupation, the Civil and Military one, was facilitated by Freemasonry, it conditioned those 'Civil' servants and Crown paid mercenaries in the ways of colonialism, and then, enabled dissemination, by throwing open membership to select natives, of that ideology.

Freemasonry is own and operated by capitalists, who want to establish capitalist empires throughout the world and then earn profits through plundering and exploitation of those countries and keep themselves wealthy and attain supremacy. They had, and are using freemasonry to dominate countries through economics, political and military power.

The purposes of colonialism included economic exploitation of the colony’s natural resources, creation of new markets for the colonizer, and extension of the colonizer’s way of life beyond its national borders.Britannica.
the system or policy by which a country maintains foreign colonies, esp. in order to exploit them economically. Link.
Economic impact of the British rule in India was really vast. The chief motive of the British to establish political control in India was mainly associated with the exploitation of economic and commercial conditions of the country. They wanted to establish a colonial market in this country for the British goods. British impact on the economic conditions of India was really devastating and harmful. Britain used the most complicated methods to exploit India’s vast rich economic reserves of India. After a control of two hundred years the British completely shattered the economic set up of India. As a result, after the independence, the scenario of the country was that of an economically underdeveloped nation prevailing with hunger, poverty, low national income, etc. Source.

But I can offer you few definitions of colonialism to help you.
I quoted only masonic websites, to give you proof that Freemasons were wholeheartedly involved in colonialism.
Only If you Know the meaning of Economic Exploitation you can discern the meaning of Colonialism.
Now one of the things that I would very carefully check is, I would suggest that you ask the core, not just the unconscious mind, ask the core, "Is there any part inside that continues to have contact with people associated with the Cult? Is there any part inside who goes to Cult rituals or meetings?
The Satanism comes in the overall philosophy overriding [to suppress] all of this.
People say, "What's the purpose of it?" My best guess is that the purpose of it is that they want an army of Manchurian Candidates, ten of thousands of mental robots who will do prostitution, do child pornography, smuggle drugs, engage in international arms smuggling, do snuff films, all sorts of very lucrative things and do their bidding and eventually the megalomaniacs at the top believe they'll create a Satanic Order that will rule the world.

The Masonic reference book 10,000 Famous Freemasons, Vol. 4, p.74, indicates two other sons of Amschel were Masons, James Meyer Rothschild, and his brother Nathan Meyer Rothschild. James Rothschild in Paris was a 33 degree Scottish Rite Mason, and his brother Nathan in London was a member of the Lodge of Emulation. And Jewish Freemason Katz indicates Solomon Meir Rothschild, a third member of the five brothers, was initiated into Freemasonry on June 14, 1809.(31) The Rothschilds became powerful within Freemasonry. Source.
The ones who fled to Europe curried favor with kings and princes and offered them their secret Masonic people-herding technology. Eventually a very elite group of them intermarried successfully with the royalty and became the ruling family of Europe. They were known as the Rothschilds and their secret rule of Europe continues to this day. Although they try to stay hidden and their past is filled with great evil, they also deserve much credit for helping make Europe and European culture so dominant in the world.
One of their secrets was to drive the people into conflict and war, both to strengthen them through competition and to profit from the sale of arms. Creating war also made the Celts easier to control because, in times of turmoil, people turn to their kings for protection.

Due to orchestrated misinformation which has been overwhelmingly diffused worldwide over many successive decades, the global public opinion has been left in mysteries as regards the root causes of the interminable Middle Eastern conflicts.
To destroy the Ottoman Empire, the Freemasonic, Anti-Christian regimes of England and France introduced a wide range of tactics, establishing a link between the academic disciplines of Humanities (mainly specialized in the various provinces of the Ottoman Empire, Iran and Mogul India) and the political - military intelligence. From this successfully financed project emanated many fake terms that did not exist before and are indeed by themselves meaningless.
Useless to add that ethnic amalgamation did not truly take place following the Islamic expansion, as the Freemasonic Anglo-French forgers have long pretended, because the Arabs, who moved out of Hedjaz and settled in various parts of the early Caliphate, were very few if compared with the local populations. The total population of Arabia at the times of Prophet Muhammad was less than the population of just one significant Egyptian, Aramaean, Persian or Roman city.
This reality has been systematically kept under silence by the Anglo-French Freemasonic academia (the Orientalists) and diplomacy. Source.
Omar Bongo was born Albert-Bernard Bongo, into a farming family with 12 children in southern Gabon. He was orphaned at age 12, then raised by an uncle working for the colonial administration. At age 17 he left home for Brazzaville, the capital of the nearby French Congo, and worked at a post office.
Upon his arrival in Brazzaville, he joined the Freemasonry and the social-democratic SFIO (French Section of the Workers’ International). Freemasonry, a bourgeois and secular secret society, had longstanding traditions in the colonial administration.
The Gaullists created a complex system of networks and lobbies in Africa, allowing the French bourgeoisie to not only earn huge profits, but also to plan a series of assassinations, military coups, and interventions.
Bongo quickly made his first steps into politics, using his connections in Freemasonry to get involved in the first election campaign of the independent Gabon, in 1961.
The regime that evolved under Bongo— a one-party dictatorship dependent on French military support to repress the masses at every major internal crisis— was perfectly suited to French imperialism's requirements.
The plundering of Gabon
Bongo turned Gabon into an outpost to serve French interests in Africa. He helped France in its support for the secessionist war in the oil-rich Nigerian province of Biafra.
In the early 1970s, oil became Gabon's biggest export. The country joined OPEC in 1975. In order to prepare for this, Bongo converted to Islam in 1973, at the recommendation of Libyan dictator Moammar Gaddafi. He took Omar as his first name.
Bongo thus presided over a system whereby Gabon's economy was plundered in the interests of a narrow layer of corrupt French politicians and businessmen. Source.
