What the video describes as a Modernist catholic altar, I would call it a Protestant altar.

I remember the day when they replaced the altar with a 'Protestant Table'
at a parish church I attended in Venice, Ca. The old Altar was carried to
the front of the church below the stairs. The altar was still there Sunday
Morning. The message was to the people coming to church that the old
ways are now over with and please do not ask any questions.
One of my saddest memories.
For a long time after the changes were made, the Mass at St. James
Catholic Church in Redondo Beach was said facing the altar. That
changed in the late 1970's.

There are a lot of masonic altar images on the Internet.

Interesting that they usually show three candle sticks around their altar:

The masonic altars are more impressive than many Novus Ordo efforts.

I've always thought it's not just a coincidence that Novus Ordo temples resemble strongly masonic temples, complete with replacement of God in the tabernacle with man in his presider's chair. It's a total mockery of a true church, just as the NOM is a total mockery of the True Mass.
