I spoke out because it was the right thing to do, not because a poem said they’d eventually come for me
A nice g’day to you too.

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.
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 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!
The Pirate Bay will always be with us.
Like literally. It’s impossible to take down and there are infinite mirrors basically
thank you to all people that help :) i’m so tired of justifying my existance
I spoke out since they came for the indigenous folks, and I haven’t ended speaking since.
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 “illegal” immigrants, now it’s the trans people…but at the same time also now they are going ove the legal immigrants too
Poem?
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
