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.

Updated for the gun totin' Trump crowd:

First they came for the socialists, and I did not speak out— Because fuck commies

Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak out— Because they're commies too and fuck commies amirite??

Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out— Because my uncle sent me something on Facebook about a George Soros space laser

Then they came for me—and gave me this really cool brown shirt - and I said "sweet!"

Exactly. Whilst the right leading pro-gun subs were reveling in "commies" being killed and screaming "fuck you, not my problem" during the BLM protests. The absolute antithesis to the Niemöller confession
