I wish there was a poem about what happens when they start rounding up undesirables while you stand by and do nothing, and then they come for you in the end.

First they came for the socialists, and I said get those fuckers—because socialist hate America. Then they came for the trade unionists, and I said good riddance —because I am a class traitor. Then they came for the Jews, and I said about time —because I am a piece of shit. Then they came for me—and I was as confused as an lamb to the slaughter.

Funny enough, there actually is. A poem by Martin Niemöller. Full thing is:

"Y'all are dumb

Thought you were part of the in crowd, without a doubt

You fucked around

Now you'll find out"
