    First they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out— Because I was not a socialist. Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out— Because I was not a trade unionist. Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out— Because I was not a Jew. Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me.

    I hope everyone supporting nationalist politicians because the old days were better for them take some time out of their day to reflect on this, let WW1 and WW2 at least have the positive side of teaching us about what not to fall for as citizens.
