This would certainly lead to a large part of the community taking a dim view of the person who wrote it and claiming they should have known what they were inviting unto themselves and others.

This is why I say look at it more as a way of representing pro-c MAPs in a favourable way (e.g. self-aware, concerned about being perceived as greedy or self-interested, aware of those risks), even if it is written as a manifesto. It's almost like we now have to sell the pro-c/anti-c divide to the public, so they actually get interested in our topic, and feel like they should be taking sides in some way.
I could just call it a pedophile manifesto, but...

1. That wouldn't technically be accurate as I'm pedohebephilic.
2. I don't want to focus on advocating decriminalization of sex with preteens, even in a radical manifesto.
