Right-wingers cynically try to turn other members of the LGBTQ+ community against their trans siblings. Don't fall for it! They're not your friends and they'll come for you in short order. Solidarity to ALL persecuted groups!

Maybe society should stop considering "I don't consider myself an activist" as anything other than being a selfish asshole.
Oh look suddenly it affects YOU, and now you're interested in speaking out.
You're an asshole.

Terence Tao, one of the world’s foremost mathematicians, who is often called the “Mozart of Math,” would rather not talk politics.“I do scientific research,” Tao said. “I vote, I sign a petition, but I don’t consider myself an activist.”

The complete poem reads as follows.
First they came for the Communists
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a Communist
Then 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

#Ethics / #Morality / Rights #Quote about a #Bigot
from #MollyWhite
The TLDR / LESSON LEARNED HERE:
🔴 Even if you can't give birth to children or you are beyond the age, it doesn't mean you can't reason for yourself and others about such issues. (#MartinNiemoller / #FirstTheyCameFor style speaking up for self and others...)
Quote Molly says...
💬 "Moreno’s comments earlier this year that suburban #women are single-issue voters for candidates who support abortion rights, and that that’s “a little crazy by the way — especially for women that are like past 50 — I’m thinking to myself, ‘I don’t think that’s an issue for you.’” Physically bearing children is certainly not an issue for Moreno either, but that somehow didn’t stop him from expressing his own vehement opinion in an interview last year that it’s “insane” that, “as a father of two daughters”, if one of them became pregnant as a result of a rape, they could get an abortion without first obtaining his consent.(Moreno’s daughters are around 30 years old.)

SUMMARY
✔️ Good point here and shows how people miss the point for sticking up for others or having opinions. Even if you can't give birth to children or you are beyond the age, it doesn't mean you can't reason for yourself and others. -
🔈 Audio Clip 🔈 about #MartinNiemoller "First they came for the..."
He was a willing Nazi #Soldier but then rejected #Nazism on #Religious grounds (Church vs. State stuff) and later as a #Priest went around spreading how he his inaction or indifference spells doom for everyone and why things needed to be done differently now else it would ome back around to them... 🔁

#Power #Greed #Fascism #Socialism #Capitalism4 Keywords / vocabulary related to #Niemoller and Genocide:
➡️ indifference
➡️ inaction
➡️ passivity
= ➡️ complicity :nes_fire:Martin Niemoeller's is an example of people who supported the Nazis for a long while (LIKE SUPPORTING #CAPITALISM FOR SOME PEOPLE LET'S SAY AS MODERN TYPE OF #OPPRESSION)
and then later *after actually meeting #Hitler allegedly) he flips to realise "no...." it's not the way ...#Church and #State are different and hostile #Hitler made it so clear at the time...
Many #German people or people around the world didn't say a word and even killed against others (even worse dobbed Jewish people or reported #sympathizers (to let others kill them!).
They themselves also might have perished which is maybe accordingly to the #StepByStep #method of which the outcome is the same when repeating the bad work and just finding new targets to suppress or blame. I

TLDR = Niemöller's belief was that Germans had been complicit through their silence in the Nazi imprisonment, persecution, and murder of millions of people.
This has a nice audio version of softer wiki-like page. I've put this on my Mastodon and maybe attached it if I remember. Excellent for people to hear often to stop encroaching criminalization of every single sector and type of person
==============================================
PEOPLE CAN'T EXPECT GOVERNMENT TO CHANGE AT ALL OR BEG FOR LOVE FROM THEM CONSTANTLY !!!! IT'S THEIR SELF-GIVEN JOBS TO SCREW PEOPLE!
==============================================Political policies and campaigns are often based on taking away 'certain' freedoms and then slowly taking away all of them.
#Oppression of #Freedom
#FirstTheyCameFor #MartinNiemoller#Politics is what is done to you basically - just a bit more 'diplomatically' so it causes less of a scene and instead do it step by step like that #Grandma #Game behind your back while at your at work, getting closer all the while to their ideal scenario from the start... Total control.
Someone should literally plot all these changes to see how it's part of the same patterns and historically going towards the same crushing control / reducing of #community #people and #freespeech.

The "first they came for" poem implies that you should any help others on the basis of selfish motives. That's better than nothing and some people won't do better, but just help people because it's the right thing you do, not because you are mentioned at the end of a poem.
