Could Fornits folk speaking at a NATSAP conference be twisted into the idea that Fornits folk believe that NATSAP is legitimate?
Example:
I was once put on an advisory board for our county school system after I got out of KHK as a student advisor. I went to all of the meetings only to realize that nothing I said carried any weight and I was only there to give the appearance that the teenage population had a voice about what went on with county/school politics. I was used to make the board appear more inclusionary and any input I gave was laughed at and shot down behind the closed doors of the meetings.
If you go, you will be on their turf, so to speak. They will have all of the control as far as I can tell. It would be like agreeing to go on the "Rush Limabaugh show" in which every time you would try to make a valid point, your audio feed would be cut off and a long rant diverting from your point would redirect the attention from anyone smart enough to question. At such a venue, there is no fair debate because the discourse is controlled by one side. At the end of the day, NATSAP can then claim that you were invited by them which can be used as ammunition to show just how fair they are and if you complain about not being given a fair shot at explaining, you will be ridiculed and laughed at as the radicals they wish to portray you as.
I would be very careful and learn the details about whatever invitation was extended by them. I would say it is more likely they are setting some type of trap rather than wishing to hear your perspectives. Fornits is hurting their bottom line and they want you to go away. If they can't force you, maybe they'll try another tactic. Someone previously mentioned Fornits being a trojan horse but it sounds more like the trojan horse has already been offered by NATSAP.
Any attempt to communicate with Fornits will only be set up for their benefit, remember that. Their goal is not to improve anything for kids. If that were the case, I doubt they would ask people from Fornits. I think this is an attempt to silence critics and exposers so they can increase enrollment and profit margins.
