OTR messaging is encrypted (only intended recipients can read your messages), authenticated (you can verify intended recipients identity), deniable (anyone can forge messages after a conversation to look like you sent them), and forward-secret (if you loose your keys, previous conversations aren't compromised).
Also, it is wise to communicate as little as possible. Chatter can be detected to see who are involved. It often doesn't matter what you said, if you were involved or engaged with the wrong people, you may find yourself zip-tied in a stress position.
