The future of myself and my son does not depend on nor benefit from my anonymity.

I'm not a revolutionary taking up arms I'm a voter and a citizen in disagreement. Unless I am seen and counted, then being any of those things is worthless as well.

There is no value in hiding from the system while the system goes to hell and attacks everyone else.

That's not up to you to decide. It's up to whomever is in power and has the ability to label you as such.

See: all of the old ladies in the UK protesting Palestine being arrested for domestic terrorism.

See: US ICE telling people filming that they're domestic terrorists because they are filming.

See: the poem "first they came..." which happens every time
