The Illuminati is a real but dead 18th-century band of thinkers, versus a myth that won't quit. It started with big dreams in Bavaria, crushed by bans in the 1780s. French Revolution fears birthed the legend, and pop culture keeps it fresh. Symbols get twisted, celebs play along, but no cabal runs the show.
