It is not wrong to have something to hide for the sake of peace in the family.
Why turn sons and daughters against parents and grandparents to fight over political disagreements? or "You had all that money and didn't use it for this holiday I've been asking you for years"?
Or why should burglars know: "Oh, this person has extra money, let's pay them a night-visit..."?
Or politicians saying: "now I've discovered that this guy is in the opposite camp, so they won't get (or retain) a public job"?
Being serious about bringing a change, especially when attempting to topple a corrupt regime in order for one to be able to resume their own normal life uninterrupted by that regime, should not require one to become a political martyr.
I consider the above issues not childish, but very serious matters, I'm sorry you don't.
