I'm pale male stale, middle Britain where diversity is very limited. I've decided that this is the hill I die on out of principle that society should only ever give people more rights, not take them away.
I spoke out ... on lemmy ... to a bunch of people who don't need to hear the message. And I'm thinking if cancelling my Disney subscription ... but I wanna watch the next Only Murders in the Building. Power to the people!

I spoke out because it was the right thing to do, not because a poem said they'd eventually come for me

At some point you have to actually address the fuckery that is causing you to need so many specific protections
But it's not a bad rule of thumb, people generally don't ask for rights unless they need them

I cut family out of my life for this reason.
I don't give a single wet shit about blood if you're a hateful bigot.

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
To speak out for me
