Aaron Smith-Levin

So before that there were channels, there was things, but it's almost like it took a lot of, uh,

people felt like it took a lot of bravery and courage to say something on the internet about Scientology.

And so people would pop up and there weren't very many voices.

And I was like, I want this to be prolific.

I want to be prolific.

I want to have 30 or 40 other channels being prolific so that Scientology couldn't possibly successfully control the narrative about it.

Have you been personally attacked?

AaronSmith11.com is a website created by the Church of Scientology.

Have you seen it?

No.

What kind of content is on there?

oh, Aaron's an abusive father and a horrible husband and the worst staff member we've ever had.

Oh, I openly talk about it because I think the fact that Scientology even does things like that is fucking hilarious.

And anything they try to do to me, the way I think about it is, you know you're just giving me an opportunity to turn the mirror back on you and show everyone how horrible you are.

Does it stick?

No.

So you find that there is ineffective.

It's completely ineffective.

They're so over the top.

And I'll tell you how the website even came into being.
