Cults, Conspiracies & Chaos - The Sabbateans

Cults, Conspiracies & Chaos 5: The Sabbateans is the fifth installment in a docuseries produced by 22Ten.TV (also branded as TwentyTwoTen.TV), a platform focused on alternative narratives, conspiracy theories, and historical exposés. Released in 2025, this episode zeroes in on the Sabbateans, a controversial 17th-century Jewish sect founded by Sabbatai Zevi, a self-proclaimed messiah whose movement later morphed under followers like Jacob Frank into a blend of mysticism, antinomianism, and alleged subversive influence. Hosted by Richard Willett, the series frames the Sabbateans as a pivotal link in a sprawling "global anti-human death cult," connecting them to groups like the Jesuits, Freemasons, and modern power structures.
The documentary likely runs 30-60 minutes, typical for the platform’s content, and uses a mix of narration, archival imagery, and interviews with fringe researchers or theorists—possibly figures like Benjamin Fulford, known for Sabbatean conspiracies. It explores Zevi’s 1666 apostasy to Islam, the sect’s rejection of traditional morality, and claims of their infiltration into European elites, banking, and secret societies. The narrative might tie this to contemporary issues, suggesting a hidden hand behind transhumanism or New World Order agendas, though evidence would lean heavily on speculation rather than primary sources.
Aired on Rumble or the 22Ten.TV site, it targets an audience skeptical of mainstream history, blending historical snippets—like the Sabbatean-Frankist legacy—with bold assertions about their role in shaping modernity. Expect a gritty, low-budget aesthetic, prioritizing provocative ideas over polished production. Critics might call it conspiratorial noise; fans would see it as unfiltered truth. Either way, it’s a niche dive into a shadowy corner of religious and political lore, designed to provoke and polarize.
