But don’t try a plan that risky in real life. You’re not a comic book villain and it probably won’t work out.
There’s no “spoiler” tag available in LessWrong? Too bad.
Anyway, even for the comic book villain, it probably won’t work out; at the end of both comic book and movie his big secrets are clearly about to be leaked to the public, which will be grossly hazardous to both his goals and his health.

Moore leaves it ambiguous; Rorshach’s journal is being pulled out of the slushpile but that’s at something Moore has modeled on the Birchers. I suspect that that name doesn’t mean much to most LWers, so I’ll elaborate.
To put it in perspective: suppose you read in the Bircher periodical The New American (which in the same issue alluded to how the US government is controlled by Russians and how fluoridation is a government plot, probably due to the Jews*) an expose based on an anonymously submitted handwritten journal supposedly written by the serial killer Gary Ridgway about how 9/11 was a plot by philanthropist Bill Gates to provoke military intervention against failed states.
I think the odds are very small anyone would take it seriously.
* This is pretty much what the Birchers have officially held at various times; it was the Birchers who Dr Strangelove was mocking.
