First they came for Black and native people, but I didn't care, because that's how it's always been and anyway we've come so far, haven't we. Then they came for the immigrants, but I didn't care, because those people cause a lot of problems and they're unclean and strange. Then they came for the sex workers, but I didn't care, because it's their own fault to work that job and I mustn't be associated with that kind of people. Then they came for the homeless, but I didn't care, because I like my cities clean and they could just get a job, really what's so hard about that. Then they came for the pregnant, but I didn't care, because men like me can always get their girlfriends an abortion if needed. Then they came for the trans people, but I didn't care, because frankly they're sort of weird and just a fad and we're just indulging them and their wacko doctors. Then they came for the permanently disabled, but I didn't care, because I was in good health and they should just stay at home or eat healthier. Then they came for the journalists, and I wrote an op-ed titled “first they came for the journalists”. — liberal journalists **Edit:** for the love of whatever, please stop sending follow requests. At this point I've got around 100 piled up and I will not get through them all, ever. **Edit (14/03/2023):** Did away with the all-lowercase and capitalised properly.
