1. Pedophile activism suggestions
2. Jump to: navigation, search
3.  
4. This is a list of suggestions to reconcile society with MAPs (Minor-Attracted Persons). Feel free to add what you think is right for this purpose. Our coexistence with society is not impossible. Only a century ago it was possible in western countries to marry girls in their teens whilst homosexuality was usually illegal. History and literature both give us plenty of examples of this kind. Child pornography and intergenerational relationships are currently seen as immoral and wrong by a large portion of society and it can be argued that the current trend is negative, certain actions, however, might help slow and eventually reverse the trend. Some of the suggestions below would attach us to different political, social, or religious groups which means that we can have allies and opponents. We will need all our intellect to improve the situation. Also, since we are different people, probably not all of the suggestions you will find to your liking. It's ok, you are free to support or oppose some of them or all of them at once, it's up to you.
5.  
6. Pretty much all the points given can be given a counter argument to do the exact opposite. There may be a little devil's advocation here, on some of these: but each point does need further discussion.

40. Suggestions
41. Action points
42.  
43. Specific actions that individual pedophiles and child-lovers can do to further the cause.
44. Donate to the Swedish Pirate Party
45.  
46. Rickard Falkvinge, who founded the Swedish pirate party, is the only politically important person I know of to ever publicly advocate legalizing possession of child pornography. That means supporting anything associated with him is one thing you can do to make the world more enjoyable to people like ourselves.
47. Get aware of how to contact political representatives, locally, nationally, and internationally
48.  
49. In the US, writerep.house.gov lets you write to representative in the House, and www.senate.gov in the Senate.
50.  
51. In the UK, www.writetothem.com has an interface that lets one find MPs and MEPs, and to contact them.
52.  
53. You don't need to be from a certain country to contact said country's politicians but it may help to act like you are a concerned business/citizen and that the one you're contacting is your representative.
54.  
55. Messages may have higher appeal to politicians if its contents and suggestions fall within the Overton window, that is, they don't advocate anything that would be politically risky for the politician to enact. They should advocate for solutions which are politically acceptable but still better than the alternatives.
56.  
57. Extending voting rights to those who can already be criminally charged, taking position against age of consent raises, and generally giving children higher autonomy may all be acceptable proposals that don't deal directly with the issue at hand but help provide a more permissive environment.
58. Become an authority
59.  
60. Become the authorities yourselves to set the rules. Politicians, judges, and police officers, among others, have a great deal of authority and make influential decisions about others' lives.
61.  
62. One doesn't need to be an authority, though, to advocate for better laws. Journalists, writers, think tank researchers all have some potential to influence policy and with the emergence of new technologies individual citizens can become activists without leaving home.
63. Contribute to this list
64.  
65. Your suggestions may affect the behavior of other MAPs, sexual minorities, and supporters, in a way that may further all of our goals. Collective action, even when uncoordinated, has a greater potential for change than individual acts.
66. Observe computer security
67.  
68. The more of a group that are caught, the more others are placed at risk, the less support others will find among the populace (of which they are members), and the more material for antagonizing propaganda their enemies get. Make sure you're taking the necessary steps to protect your life and help others protect theirs.
69. Coordinate with others
70.  
71. Pedophile rings are widely known for engaging in illegal acts but not all groups formed by pedophiles need to engage in illicit activities. Advocacy groups, support communities, and book clubs are all usually legal forms of association which can be done online.
72.  
73. Starting your own group and attracting others with the same interest may be easier when said group acts within the parameters of a certain jurisdiction. But whether or not the activities performed are strictly legal on certain jurisdictions, the group can still make use of anonymous networks and share security tips.
74. Become aware of the research and the literature
75.  
76. You can start by taking a look at Newgon's Research and Debate Guide pages. Other useful resource is Ipce.
77. Join a think tank
78.  
79. Joining a think tank may allow you to discover the best ways to promote your agenda and give you the links and connections you need to effectively spread your ideas. Creating not directly related promotion material and sending them to influential individuals or producing research which will be used to settle policy may all help.
80. Infiltrate anti-pedo organizations
81.  
82.     Pro: Organizational policies can be changed and mellowed best by petitioning from the inside, not by attacking from the outside.
83.     Pro: Pedo sitelists, advance notice of stings, and other relevant information can be obtained and distributed.
84.     Pro: Organization-damaging behaviors can be suggested, promoted, discovered; organization-damaging behavior (eg storing "evidence") can be discovered and reported to other authorities.
85.     Pro: Damaging evidence can be planted to discredit the organization or its more effective members.
86.     Pro: Being a member of one of these organizations gives you a little leeway in terms of extenuating circumstances and plausible deniability for having bad stuff on your drive, for using encryption, TOR, etc.
87.     Pro: There are very few pure anti-pedo organizations, most of them (like the police) have a vast agenda to accomplish, so helping them place child-love to the last items on the agenda or even exclude it due to other urgent or more important matters can be a very good thing.
88.     Anti: could backfire badly, particularly the less moral activities. Getting found out could be bad for the infiltrator, even though it would also damage the organization.
89.     Anti: becoming or remaining a member of such an organization may require you to perform actions that further the aims of the organization, to our detriment.
90.     Anti: It's conceivable that an anti-pedo organization that would otherwise have died, could be kept afloat by the actions of a number of pedos, all working against each other.
91.  
92. Concepts
93.  
94. These are concepts we should promote in society, that directly relate to our interests.
95. Promote freedom of speech and freedom in general
96.  
97. Acts that revoke freedom of speech and freedom in general create a slippery slope that leads to other freedoms being taken away. To have any chance of a loosening of government control over social taboos like pedophilia (even if they one day become less taboo), we have to win the war on less contentious freedoms first.
98.  
99.     Pro: Freedom of speech and civil rights organizations, such as the ACLU, often put capital towards lobbyists and lawyers to protect personal freedoms.
100.     Con: These organizations will usually need to be anti-pedophilia to maintain legitimacy for the time being. Probably a necessary evil short-term to support these organizations anyway to win the long-term war.
101.  
102. Promote law changes in favor of greater sexual freedom
103.  
104.     Pro: Existing laws, born out of ignorance, paranoia, and a need to control the public's sexuality, are immoral and sorely need reform.
105.     Pro: Regardless of whether they are morally good or not: the laws endanger our position.
106.  
107. Promote sexual education in schools
108.  
109.     Pro: This gets kids thinking about sex earlier, promoting a more permissive environment.
110.     Pro: Knowledge gives empowerment: sexually educated kids are more likely to have sex earlier and less likely to get pregnant from it. They'll also have greater knowledge on prevention methods and be more likely to use them.
111.     Anti: School lessons are likely to have materials that promote hostility to pedophiles and to cross generational relationships.
112.  
113. Bring awareness of famous people who had younger partners
114.  
115.     Pro: Many people look to celebrities for patterns of behavior. If those they respect or admire took part in relationships with younger partners, then people may look on child love more favorably.
116.     Anti: Not all historical pedophiles and hebephiles would be considered acceptable as role models in all areas (eg Mohammed, Joseph Smith, etc).
117.  
118. Spread stories of people who started sex at an early age and enjoyed it
119.  
120.     Pro: It will raise public awareness of children as sexual beings.
121.  
122. Advertise anonymous networks among non-IT people and help these networks function
123.  
124. Action point: whenever a government decides to block certain sites, spread to people from said country that they can circumvent the block through Tor and other anonymous networks. After the Brazilian government blocked messaging app WhatsApp, the Tor Project team began promoting key tips in Portuguese on social media and elsewhere to instruct Brazilians about how to bypass the blockage. This saw a 20% to 30% increase in the rate of downloading on those days.
125.  
126. Action point: approach missionary organizations with the software and suggest they use and promote it for the distribution of bibles to missionaries in repressive regimes, and to provide a channel for the missionaries to "talk home" from such regimes.
127.  
128. Action point: suggest to your church that they distribute Freenet to their users in order to support these missionaries. Give them all ebook bibles to share through Freenet.
129.  
130. Action point: create "no work" Freenet/TOR installers that let people simply install it, see the icon, and know they are "doing good for the missionaries", without needing to do or know anything about what the network actually does.
131.  
132. Action point: think of other organizations that might also need this feature.
133.  
134.     Pro: It will help all involved (pedos, kids and everyone else) to organize and form their own ad-hoc unmoderated social networks and media outlets.
135.     Pro: The more non-pedos using a system, the better we are hidden amongst the noise.
136.     Pro: The more legitimate users of a system, the stronger that system is against legislative efforts to destroy it.
137.  
138. Help kids learn to produce their own unmoderated media
139.  
140.     Pro: This will help kids to form a culture that is both inclusive and not handed to them by corporations, churches and governments. This includes (but is not limited to) sexual material. Kids can and will celebrate (and share) their sexuality when they have the means to do so.
141.     Pro: Starting from puberty, kids become aware of their sexuality, and thus sexually active. In that time, some are more than happy to share what they can show. If they are shown the proper way to produce quality media, it would be a simple and harmless way to get more pornography.
142.     Anti: Just as amongst adults, so among children. There are always anti-sex campaigners, there are always children who would advocate that everyone observe chastity until a certain age, and there are always religious nuts of all flavors.
143.  
144. Promote awareness of the needs and wants of children
145.  
146. The de-sexualization of children in modern society goes hand in hand with the over-sexualization of children by pedophiles whose only exposure to child sexuality is from child erotica and pornography. Children deserve to be treated with respect. Adults should listen to the children and abide by their wishes whenever possible.
147.  
148.     Pro: knowing what children want means you can keep them happy. This makes them more likely to accede to your wishes, and to grow up holding the same values.
149.  
150. Reject sexual material whose production involved victimizing children
151.  
152. Cruelty toward children should not be tolerated in any form. Reject any pornography whose production required hurting or frightening children and condemn those who produce and consume it.
153.  
154.     Pro: Degraded or otherwise abused kids are likely to be less happy and healthy.
155.     Pro: Abused children are less likely to grow up supporting and upholding the values of their older partner.
156.     Pro: Abusive porn is also the most effective weapon for our attackers to use against our cause.
157.     Anti: This argument has been used against porn forever. "It victimizes the woman!" In modern porn, this is tripe, and considered an extremely offensive claim by most porn models and actresses, since the argument itself presumes that they are just objects without the free will to consent to, enjoy, and have a creative role in their work, however child porn is different because children may not have the power or the will to refuse the authority of an abuser and certainly haven't had a chance to develop a submissive or masochistic fetish naturally.
158.     Anti: For some pedos, the victimization is the whole point, and they would be "rejecting" the very best porn: how does this address their needs? / Answer - three things:
159.         Most importantly, what makes a child-lover is that he or she rejects the notion that cross generational sex or sex-play is inherently harmful... So rather than saying that abuse is acceptable, quite the opposite, we should be even more emphatic on distinguishing between abuse and healthy sexuality.
160.         We can allow fictional porn that depicts what pedophilic dominants want.
161.  
162. Promote academic freedom for those involved in unbiased child sexuality research
163.  
164.     Pro: The hysteria over child sexuality has persisted for so long because those who profit from the hysteria are allowed to frame the debate.
165.     Anti: they might find stuff contrary to our cause, or more likely, appear to. It is likely they won't be able to find unbiased samples to use in a society where any sexual contact with children is maximally punished, much more so than murder or any other crime.
166.  
167. Promote artistic freedom for those who explore child sexuality
168.  
169.     Pro: Legitimate mainstream artists such as Jock Sturges and Sally Mann (among many others) have been persecuted for their depictions of child nudity. This is another way that the sex-hysteria industry constrains discourse to its advantage.
170.  
171. Promote teenage weddings
172.  
173.     Pro: Young people must be free to form any alliances if they want to. Besides, such couples usually have more children and teenage marriages will pave the way for less restricted marriages in terms of years of age.
174.     Anti: This is not important for the "more children" issue, which is of no advantage to our cause; of more advantage are: "more young pregnant people makes it more of a social norm", and "if people can have children early, they can enjoy a full and productive life later".
175.     Anti: less moral extensions to this might be "promote teenage abstinence programs" since these apparently result in a rise in teenage pregnancies. Or even "promote belief in fallacious contraception methods amongst the young".
176.  
177. Promote universal availability of all forms of birth control for teenagers
178.  
179. This includes opposing US restrictions on funding for family planning organizations and clinics that have any dealings with abortion.
180.  
181.     Pro: No woman has an abortion without thinking about it far more deeply than they think over, say, whether to use a condom, though both have the same effect: no baby.
182.     Pro: Contraception was the cause of the sexual revolution. Contraception for children is important to our goals of free, sexually liberated, happy children, able to take charge of their sexual lives.
183.  
184. Suppress anti-pedo propaganda
185.  
186. Although making fun of the western-style hysteria in countries where it is not so pervasive is almost certainly a good idea, it could backfire by raising the profile of the issue.
187. Ethical considerations
188.  
189. This category covers items which may not be directly related to pedophilia, or even specific to child welfare.
190. Promote socially responsible behavior
191.  
192.     Pro: There are advantages to being seen to be socially responsible. The stated purpose of this list is to reconcile society with child lovers, and positioning ourselves as socially responsible citizens is a powerful tool in itself.
193.     Anti: While these are nice touchy-feely sentiments, it could be argued that these points really have little or nothing to do with our cause, any more than "wear a seatbelt" or "observe good gun safety practices", etc. All might save the lives of children, but that doesn't stop them being irrelevant.
194.  
195. Become involved in youth rights issues
196.  
197. Youth rights, in particular, relate strongly to our interests despite no direct connection. Such issues allow one to actively participate in organizations and political parties without revealing oneself as being a pedophile supporter.
198. Become a consequentialist
199.  
200. Consequentialism is one of the three main schools of normative ethics, that is, the branch of philosophy concerned with what actions are moral or not. Out of the three main schools, consequentialism is the only one claiming that what matters about an act is its consequences.
201.  
202. The two other schools are deontology (which claims one should follow a determined set of rules, like the law, the ten commandments or the samurai code) and virtue ethics (which claims one should act according to a set virtue, like being a good christian or being brave). Consequentialism, to the contrary, aims to produce the best consequences, whether or not one had to disobey the law or act in ways the society considers immoral!
