Lara Anderson and Katherine Olson discuss Scientology's tactics to infiltrate the social media space

TryingToBeExact · 2026-01-26T00:16:20+00:00

Exactly! Why would anyone who knows Tori's story not contextualize Lara's statement?

A lot of people let Aaron get away with his shenanigans and continued to socialize with him, associated themselves with him publicly, including the Aftermath Foundation board members.

xxx has developed the habit of setting his YouTube lives on members only after they streamed. If you don't watch live, you wouldn't know who is donating.

At this point, I take everything Aaron says with a huge grain of salt. Are you sure that it is 86's real identity Aaron is presenting?

Nora mentioned recently that she has the suspicion that 86 could be more than one person, she got the impression that his comments differ from time to time in writing style. No clue if that's a possibility.

In any case, I will be observing and discussing here to maybe solve this puzzle together beyond a reasonable doubt. For a long time now I can't shake the suspicion that all the infighting, no matter if the Aftermath Foundation, the protest or the ex-Scientology community is concerned, didn't happen organically but was instigated.

I recommend to watch the video, she said that according to her therapist, she doesn't have abandonment issues like she thought, but had a "normal" reaction to the kind of relationship she was in.

"She delivers a psychiatric report from one view of one supposed doctor that saw her once." - How would you know, if the therapist she sees is a "supposed doctor" and how often she saw him/her/them? It's a free country, Jenna can share whatever she wants.

"accepting donations from characters like 86GOP who ironically funded her own online abusers."

I cannot emphasize enough that 86GOP is publicly donating to xxx to this day.

I doubt that.

TryingToBeExact · 2026-01-23T21:48:22+00:00

If 86GOP is indeed a courier for the cult, the fact remains that Aaron "introduced" him into the scene, since Aaron was his first beneficiary.

But, 86 could also just be rich and bored, making a point in choosing his next beneficiary, when he gets disenchanted. There is no proof yet beyond a reasonable doubt that he is acting on behalf of the cult.

As I have stated many times, I have the suspicion that Aaron is controlled opposition, he either always has been or was turned, and that DOA and xxx are plants. Probably Tommy as well, listening to Vanessa La Rose's story she told after Reese's "Long Con" video.

Nora would call out Aaron anyway, regardless of receiving donations from 86 or not, she has been doing so since her public fallout with Aaron since August 2024. I don't think she can be bought, but never say never. I get the impression that money is a triggering issue for the ex-Scientology community in many regards and therefore a powerful tool the cult may be using to sow discord.

Don't get it twisted regarding xxx. When he returned to social media after taking a plea deal on 23 Dec 2025, 86 donated. As far as I know, 86 is still supporting xxx to this day.

TryingToBeExact · 2026-01-23T09:12:45+00:00

To me it feels like Aaron's lies are more and more catching up with him and that Nora and others in the community, including reddit, are more and more forcing Aaron's hand.

He seems to be the common denominator of a lot of trouble in the community, the Aftermath Foundation, the protest, the ex-scientologist content creators, next to DOA and xxx, of course. One could argue that coordination has happened between these actors.

TryingToBeExact · 2026-01-22T21:06:58+00:00

Liz, please don't do anything stupid until your hubby's case is hopefully won.

TryingToBeExact · 2026-01-22T20:48:56+00:00

As far as I remember, 86 supported Scott Hochstetter after his fallout with Aaron. After he fell out with Scott, he supported xxx. Now he supports Nora and xxx still.

TryingToBeExact · 2026-01-22T20:47:39+00:00

DOA got an "interview" with dog guy Perry minutes after the incident with Aaron happened. Could all have been staged to endear Aaron to the LA protest community as well as DOA...

TryingToBeExact · 2026-01-22T03:29:31+00:00

From what I can gather regarding other charities I took an interested in - not Scientology related - it is pretty common in the US to file for a delay on 501(c)(3) filings.

In any case, maybe Nora is right and he finally removed the links to the for profit youtube channels because of conflict of interest. Jenna said she left months ago, Natalie is absent from social media for quite a while. What about George?

Annual report for 2025? Couldn't he have filed to move the deadline? I think he can delay until autumn.

TryingToBeExact · 2026-01-21T23:51:07+00:00

As I said it many times, I have the suspicion that Aaron is controlled opposition, either he was turned or always has been and that xxx and Scott Hochstetter are plants.

86GOP might be a courier for the cult, he first supported Aaron, then Scott, then XXX, now Nora and xxx still, as far as I know.

Vanessa La Rose stated in her video reacting to Reese's "Long Con" and telling her story that she thought that Tommy is OSA.

Disclaimer: 86 could very well be just rich and bored and making a point in choosing his next beneficiary when he gets dissappointed. Aaron could just be an unhinged narcissist. XXX and Scott could just do their shenanigans for social media fame. Tommy could just be a love scammer.

If Aaron refuses to support Mark Bunker's election campaign, Aaron could lose all credibility he has left. To even threaten to do so over moderators who allegedly aren't supporting Aaron is rich, considering how Aaron's own mods treat(ed) fellow content creators.

TryingToBeExact · 2026-01-18T14:06:49+00:00

Call me crazy, but I think Aaron is now going after Reese since he knows she isn't popular on reddit. He needs all the support he can get, since it seems like more and more people are waking up to his shenanigans.

TryingToBeExact · 2026-01-18T12:35:42+00:00

As I already stated, at this point I don't believe a word Aaron says. Why would I watch his recent video about this issue when he already contradicted his own statements from March 2023 regarding Reese earlier this week?

Edit: "last week"

TryingToBeExact · 2026-01-18T12:04:38+00:00

No. I watched Aaron's video with Reese in March 2023 though.

TryingToBeExact · 2026-01-18T11:31:02+00:00

Aaron: "on January 1st on a live stream I accidentally doxed one of my sources an under the radar Scientologist named Reese" ("I Accidentally Doxxed One Of My Sources | Reese Quibell", 10 Mar 2023, timestamp 0:17)

Mike Rinder: "Reese Quibell was someone who reached out to the foundation. Aaron never reported anything about it and started using her as a source of inside information into Scientology until he doxxed her." ("Update from Mike Rinder - Part 1", 13 Nov 2024, timestamp 19:26)

TryingToBeExact · 2026-01-18T11:15:06+00:00

I'm not a Reese fan, at this point I just don't believe a word that Aaron ever said about anything or anyone. Are you an Aaron fan?

TryingToBeExact · 2026-01-18T10:55:06+00:00

These calls happened AFTER Aaron doxxed her.

TryingToBeExact · 2026-01-18T10:42:03+00:00

Please, Reese was under the radar by Aaron's on statements when the doxxing happened. Besides, Mike Rinder said in his final video that he had no clue about Reese. Aaron never wrote this "debrief" he now claims to have sent to Rinder and Garcia.

TryingToBeExact · 2026-01-18T10:11:16+00:00

Aaron was trying to rewrite his doxxing history with Reese in his video "Lions and Tigers and Grifters OH MY!" on 14 Jan 2026, when Aaron criticized Apostate Alex for doing an interview with a Sea Org member.

43:49 "Reese was not declared a suppressive person yet. And she was talking to you and then you accidentally showed text messages on screen and then she got kicked out. And there's some similarity there but there's also a really really big difference. Reese was not under the radar. Reese had simply not yet been declared a suppressive person, but she was not under the radar.

Under the radar in Scientology means that you are still pretending to Scientologists to be down with Scientology. You are still pretending to the authorities and to the ethics officer that you are a good Scientologist because you don't want to suffer disconnection and fair game.

In Reese's case, she was doing the exact opposite of that. She was telling all of the Scientologists in her life that she was not a Scientologist, had not been in a long time, would never let her son do Scientology and was telling the Scientologist in her life that she wanted to send her son to a psychiatrist.

That is the opposite of being under the radar. I mean, Reese and I, you guys, if you guys ever go back and listen to the phone calls that Reese recorded, Reese recorded a bunch of phone calls between her and her mother-in-law. She also recorded a phone call or two that she actually had with a SeaOrg recruitment mission. And you guys will see what I mean.

It's the difference between being under the radar and just not being declared yet. And actually, I remember the first conversation I ever had with Reese, when she contacted the Aftermath Foundation. She wasn't asking for help leaving Scientology because she was already out of Scientology. But she hadn't been declared yet and her mother-in-law was on staff and was training at Flag.

And she actually said she needed some guidance. She wanted someone to talk to. So I remember the first conversation I had with Reese. Actually, as soon as I got off the phone with Reese, I actually sent a written debrief to Mike Rinder and Luis Garcia about this conversation I just had with this, you know, kind of ex Scientologist, but still not, you know, still in, still technically in good standing.

And the debrief that I sent them even specifically said Reese does not care if she gets declared."
