Probably not the best way to go about it.

Hell, it might work, but I doubt it. There’s absolutely no plausible deniability with paedophilia. If we donate money to show the wrong-headedness of charities that stoke paedo-hysteria, then people will just dismiss it as an attempt to make ourselves look good. We then don’t get any of the benefit of the doubt other people get. Most people know implicitly that these hysteria charities are more about advancing their own agenda than altruism. They are the witch-hunters, though, and so don’t tend to get questioned. We are the witches, and that privilege doesn’t filter down to us.

A better way to undermine those organisations would be to find a charity that doesn’t stoke hysteria, and that does a better job as a result. And starting one if there isn’t one already out there. But NOT making it a paedophile charity. It’ll just never be taken seriously the way things are currently.
