>there might be good masons but i really have no clue if there are any actual white hats who call themselves masons
The military of the USA has always been heavily Masonic since its inception. If you are counting on the military to do the right thing, some of the people you trust are Masons.
Unfortunately, even the military is not incorruptible; even some Masons sometimes do things that are beyond the pale of morality.
Sincere Masons are not happy when bad Masons commit sins of any kind. However, no amount of sins committed by any Mason can shake any sincere man's faith in his principles.
Even if all Masonic fraternities were to be exterminated, it would not shake any sincere faith in true principles. As for which principles you should regard as true - that is your quest, Anon. Go out and find truth.
