Online MAPs often have different terms to describe their attractions, but the above labels and slogans such as "love is love" are almost invariably used as hoax keyphrases by troll groups such as 4chan and its spin-off groups

The phrase "Love is Love," while initially, and most often associated with the gay-rights movement, is also used by MAPs. MAPs, including me, use it both as a way to express their love for children, as well as draw attention to the hypocrisy that many in society claim to support free love but exclude minors from that sentiment. There is nothing about MAPs using the phrase that is a hoax or trolling.

I personally don't understand most of the other labels, identities, and slogans listed, so I'm not the best person to speak on them, but I have seen quite a few of them represented on the fediverse. The demographics of the fediverse is very different than the demographics of legacy MAP spaces and forums. Invalidating certain demographics of the community does a disservice to the MAP community as a whole.

Things like the glossary are a living work. We appreciate feedback

Maybe this could be changed to something like:

Some of the above phrases are used as hoax keyphrases by troll groups such as 4chan and its spin-off groups. Some individual MAPs may attempt to reclaim and use them sincerely, but their use is less widespread in the community. Care should be taken in assessing the legitimacy of a person using these terms.

A bit wordier, but takes into account what you're talking about, I think. I've met at least a handful of MAPs that unironically use pedosexual. Many people forget that the LGBT movement started off being called the "homophile" movement. A word that is now all but extinct.

Only so far we can go with a glossary, but I added more sources and more information about terms that might be used earnestly, or as hoaxes, and how to read media within its context.

Seems my footnote about use of "pedosexual" is largely correct from a quick Google search. It has some academic use, but highly visible use by individuals is associated with right-wing hoaxes. Maybe I should mention use inside the community.
