How to convince one's parents to let one practice his political beliefs?

[UltraWright]

I am 20+ and I still live with my parents, comrades (because I can't afford yet to move out). I am from Egypt, so keep in mind that going on riots and sit-ins is a bit dangerous right now because the military is trying to oppress them and does not mind using force with the protesters. The problem is my parents oppose me going out because they are dead worried about me getting killed. They use keep repeating their arguments over and over and over again even though I have told them numerous times that their arguments are not strong enough to convince me and that repeating them does not make any difference. My mother is always telling me that she will die with grieve if something happens to me, and that I should wait till both her and my father are dead and then I am free to do whatever I want (I can smell a bit of objectivism here :D)

What can I do, comrades? How can I communicate to them that what I am currently doing is what makes me happy and that I wouldn't mind dying for it? How can I convince them that a short happy life means much more to me than a long miserable safe one?

Stop trying to convince them. They will never agree. Tell them the truth, listen to their answers, and then go.

By getting involved and never looking back.

If you're asking here, you would seem to have doubts even if you blame your parents. Take their advice and don't rush into things you might regret.

You can't.

You have to accept their beliefs and you'll spend a life time deciphering who they impacted you anyways.

Don't confront them on their views, they tried to give them to you over your lifetime. Convince others who are you age instead, for your parents are wide enough to expect that how their views impacted you would be enough.

You should thank them for giving you a baseline to compare to, if anything. You may disagree but don't bring conflict to the family because you have a different view. Bring your political ideas instead to your peers, who you maybe able to influence if they believe you're correct.

You wouldn't put any faith in your own child's political beliefs when he was your age would you?
