A few weeks ago, we received a phone call from a visible mobile phone number. The chap on the other end claimed to be “ex-PYL” and wanting to find out more information about us. Now, when someone is “ex” anything and in contact with a rival group, surely etiquette entails that the defector offers up information on their former mates before trying to extract anything from the people they are trying to buddy up with.
We filed that phone number away and gave it a call in a few days time. The person on the other end kept asking for details of FDB, our members, our numbers, our connections with people in high places. They were also very desperate to know what sort of information we had on the “Red suspenders guy”. They kept steering the topic of conversation around this guy even when we tried to steer the topic around Jim Saleam’s chronic hemorrhoid problem. This guy kept wanting to know how much we knew about “Red suspenders guy.” We just said that we knew enough and that’s all our mystery (and increasingly agitated) “defector” needed to know.
We did know plenty at the time. Thanks to the Melbourne Stormfront BBQ guys, we knew his first name was Aaron. The stills from the Toongabbie video prove this to be true.
Naturally, we’d already sussed out that the voice of Aaron Red suspenders and our mystery “defector” were identical. We once again have James Newman to thank for this. His first fash video upload, “Carp: The motion picture” proved to be an invaluable tool in making a positive voice ID.
We’re still actually very unclear as to what Aaron was trying to play at. He did cough up some semi-useful information on Jim Saleam and the Aust First/PYL crew. It was stuff that we already knew already so we were able to verify its truthfulness.
In this atmosphere of “every fash for themselves - ASIO raids are just around the corner”, we’re fairly certain that this won’t be the last strange phone call we get from a shitscared individual wondering just how much we have on them. Oh, Aaron’s surname according to a genuine defector is “Martens”, though that could be a nom-de-plume.
