RUNNING ISN’T POLITICAL
It is. Because you can't run if ICE murders you.
running isn’t political.
breathing isn’t political.
living isn’t political.
but everything becomes political when power decides who gets to live freely and who gets erased for watching, speaking, or caring.
none of this is normal.
not armed agents fearing cameras.
not truth being treated like a threat.
not violence being wrapped in procedure and called order.
freedom of speech means nothing if only silence survives.
if witnessing injustice gets you punished.
if humanity is labeled disruption.
this isn’t about one moment, it’s about a system that demands quiet while it breaks lives.
we speak because we’re alive.
we film because memory matters.
we rage because life is worth more than their excuses.
fuck the normalization of violence.
fuck the rewriting of truth.
fuck any system that asks us to look away.
we choose life.
we choose freedom.
we choose to speak. loudly. while we still can.
