This article is from November. I would like to revisit these people now. I agree with the other comments that they are all speaking from a place of privilege. But they will be coming for you as well.

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.

—Martin Niemöller
