Yes EM was a mason as well.
What you're referring to is called clandestine or irregular masonry by some.
It's still masonry though and there are many similarities between the groups.
The main difference is that one is seen by one power as being the authentic one while seen as phony by the other.
The same thing you said about the "cac euro" version is what they would say about The Moorish Science temple.
Let's go back to KM.
The Freemason who introduces him in the video above clearly states that KM was a thirty second degree mason which is under the Scottish Rite.
The video is from 1983 so clearly he was a high level mason while he was at the noi. To try and separate the noi hierarchy from the masonic orders by stating that EM was a mason but not the same kind is cool but it doesn't discredit the points of the video of showing freemasonry with the noi.
Albert Pike Museum - Scottish Rite of Freemasonry, S.J., U.S.A.
The guy in the video shows the correlation between Pike and the KKK. That alone using KM/EM shows that freemasonry, the kkk and the noi are connected. You have no real argument in regards to the subject of this video.
