“Does Conte agree wish Masons?”

According to one of the most recent (and absurd) hoaxes circulating on social media, Giuseppe Conte would exchange with other influential personalities of the economic-political world of the "Masonic handshakes". The image that would confirm this obscure conspiracy is a photograph of the meeting between the Italian Prime Minister and Christine Lagarde, operational director of the International Monetary Fund, who will also be the new president of the European Central Bank, the first woman in history in that role from November . In particular, according to the proponents of this theory, it is precisely the position of Conte's hand to reveal the existence of a Masonic agreement between the two powerful leaders.

First of all, however, it is certainly not an oddity that two institutional figures know each other and greet each other in a friendly tone and shake hands. Furthermore, Conte's handshake is not at all Masonic because, even wanting to comply with the absurd conspiracies, it should be noted that the taking is not at all carried out by hand, but is more likely the result of a quick and informal greeting in which one is he takes the hand without paying much attention to the perfect position of the wrists and fingers. And then, if it really was a secret gesture of understanding, who would ever do it on a public occasion and in front of a photographer's lens?
