'The devil can cite Scripture for his purpose' Merchant of Venice

Just my opinion but could this be the goal? We know the controlled opposition has to cover many demographics of awakening people therefore many different "personalities" will have been put in place to 'herd' those groups. Some will have been put in place decades ago, to back their claims of "I've been talking about this for years". What I have noted with Hugo is the sudden 180 switch to Christianity ...and more importantly The End Times Narrative which he now focuses on; constantly referring to the vaccine or the passports as being "the mark of the beast". Every video is now linked to biblical scripture, which doesn't feel authentic to me. So could the group of controlled opposition put in place to herd this particular group, be USING Eschatology/ Revelation to create a group of people who are happy to remain passive and less of a threat to the "System", as they are convinced their beliefs are playing out. This serves the new world order by creating large groups of people who are much less likely to fight back.

And for anyone interested in the proof that HugoTalks is John Bassett please listen to this interview he did as King Bathmat in 2013 available on Mix Cloud.

Such sensitive treatment of dear Shylock didn't you notice James?

One of the New Testament’s most common admonitions is to be always on guard for false prophets. They’re everywhere.

And don't forget false profits too. Today that includes big pharma's false profits. They indicate a huge scam.

It is his own music. He is the progressive rock musician King Bathmat aka Sacred Ape aka Sacred Messiah.

I watched a couple of his videos that appeared in my feed some time back and although I couldn’t quite put my finger on it, something about the vibe he gave out just seemed off to me. For whatever reason his videos stopped popping up and I had no desire to search him out. Like you said, there are plenty of other people out there that just give out a far more positive and consistent vibe.

He's a stooge James, good call. I never liked him. Something about him was iffy. I think he's a distraction from good people like yourself. "Oh, you only think that coz you've seen a hugo talks video on YouTube". Well no actually, I listened to hours and hours of riveting intelligent conversation with open minded people who had slightly different opinions and didn't preach to me what was happening, they just spoke of their own investigations or experiences and left me to contemplate and come to my own rounded opinion. These Hugo Talks characters don't put forward a open discussion, its just a dog whistle for the stupid, who just want to get angry and not really challenge their minds with Intellectual discussion. Its where they want to catch the strays if you like. A bit like GB news but for people who don't like to watch the news.

Hugo Talks always alerts us to controlled opposition and I found this refreshing and good during the worst times where I was potentially vulnerable to propaganda. His voice kept me grounded and centred and I would return to it for that purpose. I did think he was quite interested in Ireland so if he is indeed from Sligo that would explain it! The Christian thing is interesting but I see the Bible as a tool and not the beginning and the end so I’ve pulled back a little. He’s also become more preachy, he lost me with that. I still dip in from time to time as he does point out patterns in a way I’ve not seen them myself and I find it helpful. Everyone is not who they seem. At least he’s not pretending to be someone that he isn’t - we simply don’t know who he is in the first place! And as time goes on the more we connect to God the more we can be comfortable in the unknowing. Thanks James for a thought provoking article.

But sadly he IS pretending to be someone he is not.

People genuinely don't have a problem with him not showing his face; what they do have a problem with is him:-

1. Claiming to be against "satanic' Hollywood and what he calls the 'Peekaboo' club ... WHILST .....100% supporting it on his Yellow Film King channel.

2. Claiming to be against the petty distractions of mainstream media.... WHILST.... at the same time having a FAN channel devoted to Prince Harry and Meghan Markle .

and....

3. Quoting biblical scripture and Christianity.......WHILST.... having an open interest in Paganism (as shown in the imagery around his music as King Bathmat / Arcade Messiah / Sacred Ape)

Hugo encourages people to do their own research, especially when it comes to controlled opposition, but when you apply that same research to him ...... he simply blocks you.

I didn't think he sounded like Hugo... This was 10 years so and Hugo today sounds younger...

He does have a very young voice but that is definitely Hugo . If you watch this video you can see the evidence that links all of John Bassett's/Hugo's videos and websites.

https://odysee.com/who-is-hugo-tslks:6

His Yellow King Film channel is still available to view on YouTube where you can hear his voice and he also still runs the Meghan Markle and Prince Harry News Channel; which is strange for someone who claims to be anti Hollywood and the media.

Hi Maddy - Yes the evidence does seem to be there. Why do you think he is doing this? A lot of what he has been saying has been spot on. It seems very weird though. Having Hugo Talks speaking against Satanism and the media and having Satanic imagery in his music and the Harry and Megan site. None of it makes sense.

Hi Allen - You're right it doesn't make sense. When I discovered his Yellow Film King channel a year or so ago I politely asked him to address these contradictions. I wanted to give him a chance to explain ..... we all have things we might not be proud of in our past and we can all certainly change.....but sadly instead of answering my question I was immediately blocked, the same has happened to thousands of others.

My initial feelings on "Hugo" were he could be one of two things. Either he started out with good intentions, then realised that the Christian demographic would increase his subscribers and hence his Patreon account ...... or he was controlled opposition, out to create division and demoralisation in the newly awakened. However NOW after a year of research ( some of which is included in the video) I believe he is more than likely controlled opposition . I have witnessed YouTube deleting whole comment threads that have tried to expose him, and these contained nothing that would in any way flag up their usual reasons to block . An example is when I found the interview with John Bassett which exposes his voice .YT would not allow a link....which is fair enough....but they also banned comments such as ... "Please search Mixcloud King Bathmat 2013". Why would they do that ? These were not Hugos videos so he had no control over the blocking of those comments, in fact they were under a video titled "Who is Hugo ?". And as others have stated he became very big very quick, and whilst others were banned from YT for saying the same things as Hugo .... he was not.

Personally what I find sad is many Christians are now being deceived. If you look at the 'alternative' media you will see Christianity and especially the End Times narrative has been hijacked by TPTB, with the goal of creating more fear and divide; and if you look at 'Hugo's' comment sections they are now filled with hate and apathy, with many Christians turning on each other, arguing whose interpretation of scripture is correct. This is exactly what the TPTB want- a people divided is easily conquered.

I truly hope any Christians reading this look at all the evidence provided here; and James is right regarding Hugo's use of scripture, sadly it is very easy now to access sites that will provide scripture to fit any narrative. You have to remember Hugo himself says he knew nothing of the Bible a year ago, and yet now he is arguing doctrine with many who have studied it their entire lives.

Its a shame ... I rewatched his video "Divine Inspiration" today and he talks about his interest in movies etc an I thought it was a sound video. If we judge someone by their fruits then what he is saying about the fake media and the alternative media is true. I disasgree with him about John Campbell though. Is it possible he has just changed his views since he reviewed and watched those disturbing movies on his channel? I know my views on a lot of things have totally changed over the last 3 years.

I will just add that like you, in the beginning I was drawn to Hugo's channel because he was speaking many truths. I still believe the Controlled Opposition he exposed are indeed controlled, but that is what 'Gatekeepers' do - they give ninety nine truths to the one big lie !

Sadly it's called Bait and Switch...

This is Hugo/John on his film channel

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b7ynbLHgUoM

And in the Stanley Kubrick video someone asks what is the music he uses and Hugo/John replies it is Sacred Ape ( which is one of his names as a musician) The others are King Bathmat and Arcade Messiah.

Hi James,

Something you will be interested in,

Look at Sinead O Conner.

Perfect example of someone infiltrated by Satan.

She had huge influence of the Irish leaving the Catholic Church when she tore the Pope’s picture up and verbally slashed the church!

Stage 1 of Irish Catholic’s losing faith in God.

Huge change agent for making abortion acceptable here too.

Jean it's a small interesting world, I ran into your cousin in Albufeira in April, glasses and short blonde hair, with her sister. You just came up in conversation chatting about the last three years at the bar. In a good way of course, talking about how families split. And here you are 🙂

I followed Hugo Talks throughout covid and found him informative on balance - but I have been finding him less so lately.

I could make a laundry list of all the "little things" that bother me, but the key thing is this one: in parallel with his newfound Christianity (which I have no problem with), he keeps dissing meditation.

Of course there are plenty of disingenuous people and websites trying to make a buck off of this age-old practise, but true meditation in and of itself is anything but evil.

In this modern age, our minds have been utterly and relentlessly attacked and undermined. Meditation is probably the single best antidote for this malaise. So why does Hugo Talks treat it like the surest path to Hell?

Because when you go into a true meditative state if you’re not properly trained or protected your body can be infiltrated by dark energies.

Frankly, I've never heard of this 'HugoTalks' nor have I come across his youtube channels. So I have no dog in that race. I do however agree with your last sentence: "A lot of us seem to be pretty good at the dove like innocence; the serpentine wisdom not so much." Exactly so. However, a lot of us are very dove-like, wary of doubting some social media figure who openly or covertly proclaims to be Christian, as if that self-proclamation means they cannot possibly be snakes in the grass.

We clearly all need more training in serpentine wisdom. One might also call it to sharpen one's inner cynic. Old people (like me!) are pretty good at this ...

Im not oblivious to this stuff but just as likely I intelligence would smear someone genuine with a 30 minute doccie right? No James, quit yer frothing. It matters not the messenger but the message. Since I'm independently minded I don't care about the messenger, the ideas are what interests me. In South Africa friends have started a political party. Hugo (and Jesus) don't believe voting is the way. Whoever is controlled we also see them outed but faultlessly genuine types like Hugo and milesatgis get smeared anyway. Hugo gets the vid cuz he's UK. Hugo has interesting topics and no no one thinks just like me but I enjoy what I like. I don't understand pi so if Mathis says it's 4 and someone else says it's 3.14 I really don't care. I don't mistake hugo quoting the Bible for the Bible. That said I'll watch the vid now so I have it in case anything jumps up

The only way "Hugo" can redeem himself is to counter all this and reveal himself online. This is unlikely to happen.

Hugo Talks video has plenty of translated texts in English but does not delve into the Greek. This is rather necessary.

And is necessary to heed the words in Revelation "Let him who has an ear to hear let him hear".
