As an example, if your government instructed you to separate parents from their child, you could refuse, without any political motivations.

If you consider this a difference of opinion between the government and you, then yes, it may be political. In my view core values are not political, because you can't argue for and against them.

Core values values applied to governance decisions is exactly what a political stance is.

Refusing to obey that order from your government is a political decision.
