Free The Rabbits

Was Pinocchio's Pleasure Island merely a children's story—or was it inspired by deeper currents flowing through the hidden history of Italy?
In the final Part 4 of the Occult Mafia series, Joel Thomas follows the trail from Giuseppe Mazzini's revolutionary networks into the world of Egyptian Freemasonry, the Memphis-Misraïm Rite, and the rise of the criminal brotherhoods that would eventually establish themselves in the United States.
This episode explores the connections between Memphis-Misraïm Masonry, Giuseppe Garibaldi, Young Italy, New Orleans, Tammany Hall, the Palermo Brotherhood, and the emergence of the American Mafia. Along the way, Joel examines the symbolism of Pleasure Island, the transformation of boys into donkeys within the Pinocchio story, and how these themes may mirror systems of initiation, manipulation, and social engineering hidden beneath the surface of modern history.

Was the modern mafia shaped not only by secret brotherhoods… but by revolutionary networks, Freemasonic lodges, and political terror movements tied to the French Revolution itself?
In Part 3 of Free The Rabbits’ Occult Mafia, Joel Thomas investigates the rise of Giuseppe Mazzini, the Jacobins, Young Italy, the Carbonari, and the alleged role of British-backed revolutionary movements in shaping the underground structures that would later influence the Sicilian Mafia. 
This episode explores the hidden relationship between the Jacobin terror networks, Freemasonry, the Dominican Order, the Inquisition legacy, the Knights of Malta, and the revolutionary secret societies that spread across Europe during the 18th and 19th centuries. From the French Revolution and the Reign of Terror to British intelligence influence, Lord Palmerston, Napoleon III, and the formation of Young Italy—this rabbit hole uncovers the alleged hidden architecture behind modern revolutionary movements and organized crime.
Was Giuseppe Mazzini merely a revolutionary hero… or the godfather of a deeper hidden network?

What happens when the hidden origins of the mafia don’t just trace back to secret brotherhoods... but to forbidden spiritual teachings, Gnostic mystery schools, and the Divine Feminine?
In Part 2 of Occult Mafia, Joel Thomas of Free The Rabbits follows the trail from the Spanish Garduña into the rise of the Neapolitan Camorra, uncovering how these criminal brotherhoods may have inherited far more than blood oaths and codes of silence.
This episode dives deep into the alleged Gnostic influences surrounding the Knights Templar, the Johannite traditions of St. John, the Apocryphon of John, the Monad, Barbelo, and the emergence of the so-called “Divine Feminine” in occult initiation systems. From Mithraism and Manichaeism to Mary Magdalene traditions, secret elect orders, and esoteric teachings hidden beneath Catholic symbolism—this rabbit hole gets darker than ever.
Was the shift from knight... to godfather... also a shift from sword... to secret doctrine?

When rumors started spreading about a private UFO meeting involving pastors, whistleblowers, intelligence-connected voices, and those in Christian alternative media, the internet did what it always does—filled in the blanks.
But this time… Tony Merkel and Joel Thomas were actually there.
In this episode, Joel pulls back the curtain on what really happened at the undisclosed gathering, what was actually discussed behind closed doors, and why some of the narratives now circulating online are completely disconnected from reality.
From claims involving reptilian entities, fallen angel technology, UFO disclosure, government psyops, occult influence, human abductions, and the growing spiritual framing of the UAP phenomenon—this conversation goes deep.
Joel also breaks down why Christians may be uniquely targeted in this cultural moment, how scripture should be used as the filter for extraordinary claims, and why discernment matters now more than ever.
This isn’t rumor.
 This isn’t secondhand speculation.
 This is from someone who was actually in the room.

What happens when the origins of the Sicilian Cosa Nostra are traced far beyond modern organized crime… back to Crusader orders, secret initiations, religious warfare, and the hidden power structures of medieval Europe?
In this explosive first installment of Occult Mafia, Joel Thomas of Free The Rabbits begins connecting the dots between the Knights Templar, the Knights of Malta, early Freemasonry, and the shadowy criminal brotherhood known as the Garduña—an organization many researchers point to as a foundational myth behind the Sicilian Mafia, the Neapolitan Camorra, and the Calabrian ’Ndrangheta.
From the Crusades and the rise of the Hospitallers… to Malta lodges, secret rituals, aristocratic networks, and the religious-political machinery of the Spanish Inquisition—this episode explores whether Europe’s most feared criminal brotherhoods were simply gangs… or the underground continuation of something far older.
Along the way, Joel dives into the symbolism of the Maltese Cross, the hidden influence of medieval orders, and the mysterious “Madonna of the Mountains”—a recurring thread that may connect sacred imagery, secret societies, and the birth of the mafia underworld.
