I Can't breathe!

Hi, Are we alive or what? Nobody's listening.

We are still in front of our phones watching what is coming from social media, without being able to react to the fact that day after day we live in a society of injustices.

I still hear in my ears the cryes "I can't breathe, I can't breathe" echo, in an scariest image we summarize what we live day after day, there are cries for help that we can't hear, there are thousands of protagonists suffering this oppression.

Cries for help that call us to reflect, do I want this for my children? for my future?

Every censorship action oppresses us the human right to live and be free, we have given too much power to the politicians on duty and they have created gangsters with legal patents, uniforms and permission to discriminate who deserves freedom, this allows them to make their actions Illegally politically correct utopia, in order to maintain its politically transitory status without measuring consequences on the lives of the innocent.

They are the same political agents who have entertainment companies, newspapers, lawyers and power over the mainstream media, the same ones who have journalists who label or call protestants "These people", Hey! these people are our people, the destruction is scary but living under censorship, oppression and fear for life is scarier.

How many times did we peacefully stand up? Knell protests? Did they hear that? Did they show that?

I have seen hundreds of peaceful protests and most of them when they are supported by public figures end up being condemned or censored, they do not allow your voice to be heard, they edit the news so that you are not relevant or what you do to defend your freedom.

Death is the worst case scenario, but you can also die alive, you are silenced, you lose your job, you receive coercive threats, benefits are closed to you only by thinking differently, many times we point to the police, the military, but they are an instrument of a hand behind the curtain that can dominate your thoughts with a television channel or an interview, making you forget the real problems through an avalanche of entertainment and totally irrelevant viral news.

Governments and politicians want to sustain oppression as a normal measure to act against those who think or seem different, the list continues to grow of censured, unemployed, threatened and those who pay with their lives for excessive violence, it has not been enough and case after case happens, from the murder of Daniel Shaver to that of George Floyd.

In the world of cryptocurrencies we are also victims of violence and censorship, we have heroes who have been tried and persecuted for offering alternatives for economic freedom, even Ross Ulbricht pays an infinite sentence, Virgil Griffith was recently arrested, all persecuted for offering free markets of censorship and tracking, it is a difficult job, weapons scare, threaten your family and they will try to hurt you with what you love the most, but if we do not fight for a free present, we will continue to live an apparent freedom, where our actions will continue to be silenced.

We like to spread Bitcoin Cash and sometimes feel fear, but we take the risk. we can show to an army soldier how it works and explain facts because is a tool for freedom and resistant censorhip.

I want to help people who must pay tax to make a government stronger that limits its freedom and manages citizens through fear, trough violence, trough censorship.

I do not defend extremes, I do not want more violence, but how much longer must we endure censorship and oppression? the slavery times were surpassed or I am wrong.

Lincoln paid with his life to dare to abolish slavery, MLK paid with his life to ask for equal rights, Gandhi paid with his life his country independence, Mandela paid a sentence for asking for freedom, Kaepernick is unemployed for kneeling protest, Julian Assange pays with his freedom to show the dark side of governments, there are many cases silenced and hidden.

My country Venezuela is full of screams daily, but citizens should not pay for political errors, sanctions should be for politicians not for citizens, my nephews and my family should not scream:

I can't eat

I can't watch Tv

I can't be healthy

I can't study

We do not deserve coercive measures in exchange for a promise of freedom.

There are still screams outside our houses, day after day, all over the world, minute by minute and they won't be able to hide them!

Screams that will be louder every time.

I can't walk free

I can't think different

I can't smile

I can't eat

I can't love

I can't breathe!

You could be the next one, We must change it!

Sofia 💚
