**RECEIPTS & DETAIL IN THE BLOG POST***
Aubrey Cottle has at minimum, a six-year history of stating he has cooperated with, or worked for multiple different Law Enforcement organizations, including INTERPOL, the RCMP & the FBI.
Cottle’s outright admissions to working with state intelligence agencies are not just past or present, but over time. In addition, he has outright encouraged his audience on Twitter to contact UK authorities to have a longtime journalist and activist “forced to seek help”.
CW: HATE
In addition to his statements about law enforcement, Cottle has a long history of making racist and antisemitic remarks, including posting pictures of swastikas, pro-Hitler, anti-Black racial slurs and posts with statements advocating death of Black and Jewish people.
Cottle has worked to have himself named “Founder of Anonymous”, which was published in The Atlantic, in August 2020. The author admits in public posts that this entire claim is purely of Cottle’s own mind. They have yet to issue a correction or footnote to the article.
Under screen names Kirtaner, RealOGAnonymous, ThatOGAnonymous renatriK, TerrakinX & ThatNotoriousK on Twitter, Aubrey has been quite vocal about hacks surrounding Parler, Gab & Epik.
His behavior & statements appear very similar in nature to Sabu’s, after being arrested, agreeing to become a CI for the FBI in less than 24 hours, forming Antisec in less than a month & coordinating the hack of Stratfor, released on Christmas that year.
Sabu's cooperation with the FBI led to the imprisonment of other activists, and harassment/arrests of their families and loved ones.
Update: This article was updated on 10/14/2021 at 11:54am PT due to relevant, continued encouragement to his Twitter audience to SWAT an activist who is currently seeking asylum. ([18] & [19] inside)
REMINDER: Listen to @BarrettB Brown, who is being threatened with SWATting attempts by Aubrey Cottle aka Kirtaner. He is clear, coherent, happy & not alone.

Aubrey Cottle is contacting seemingly any party possible in an attempt to try to get them to provide him and Libby support, or integrate them into their circles.
"Fake Antifa Twitter Accounts Are Trolling People And Spreading Misinformation"
"This is part of a coordinated campaign to create fake accounts in an attempt to troll and discredit anti-fascist activists." buzzfeednews.com/article/craigs…
The article is accurate as hell. The accounts are fake, suspended, etc... but they have absolutely caused harm and been used to inform national security decisions.

If you wanna get incredibly pissed off about what I can almost guarantee is going to be a news story driven by far right media, it’s going to be this account and the absolute dog shit website they set up.
No one acting in good faith would ever do this
Some people aren’t gonna like that I use the word fed and then I use the term op, but if this isnt a fed or far right op, it’s operated by the dumbest motherfucker on the face of the planet, who is absolutely in no fucking way, any sort of antifascists or “AnTiFa”
