#whilefragility — Public Fediverse posts

First they asked for womens rights,
and we spoke out and became violent,
but in the end we had to make some concessions.
Then they asked for black rights,
so we started a civil war and lost.
Then they asked for gay rights,
and we were already used to giving some rights to others, to preserve the semblance of justice.
Then they asked for trans rights and open boarders and animal liberation,
so we completely snapped and installed the forth Reich. Worldwide. Via microblogging.
