I don't think they'll get it. They've been quouting that stupid fucking Neimoller poem for decades, they put it on the Holocaust musem, and they absolutely do not fucking get it at all.

The version of that Niemoller poem they put on the Holocaust museum removes the first line which is just the perfect encapsulation of not getting it at all

It's grotesque that they did that. Dear liberals, if you feel compelled to put a political spin on holocaust remembrance, you are doing The Bad Thing and you should go sit in a dark corner and feel bad about it until we tell you to come out.

First they came for the Palestinians and I shrugged and said, "what're you gonna do, folks just really seem to have it out for them."
