Zarathustra maligned by freemasons and ku klux klan

I recently found a copy of albert pike's morals and dogma. In the chapter titled sublime prince of the royal secret the first sentences distort Zarathustra and his teachings

The Magi are Zoroastrian clergy and those who are masters of the teachings and magick of Zarathustra by living by Zarathustra's teachings. Zarathustra came before abraham, hanoch/enoch and moses, the existence of orpheus can not be verified, and the interaction with Confucius and Hermes Trismegistus is difficult to verify. This is how the freemasons and the kkk, which pike helped found and lead, perceive Zarathustra and distort Zarathustra's teachings and lead people away from righteousness.
