We aim for the book to be accessible to both the innocent and guilt-ridden.
Of course, if the advice was different for both the guilt-ridden and innocent, then, well, not only would it make the book longer, but many people would be able to tell how you feel about the situation your social movement has gotten itself into by just looking at what set of actions you’re taking.
Our advice is to take these same 5 actions and nothing more so people can’t tell, even in principal! As you say, they work well regardless of your circumstances. And I say that’s a big plus!
Many of these things are subject to the objection “and you know who else proclaims that they’re innocent? Innocent people.”
Advice which says “don’t act like you’re innocent, and be skeptical of someone who claims to be innocent” is generally bad advice.
