Few days ago someone posted about the "First they came for the Communists" and that person wrote it is wrong. It did not start with the Communists.
This 404 media article reminds me of that post.
And when you think about it, that famous text is from the 1950 written by a Christian pastor. In that time it was still taboo in lots of countries to be openly gay. And no churches with rainbow flags. https://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/First_they_came...

@regendans First, they came for the Currently Designated Bad People.
In 1950s' USA, it was the Communists. Now, it's trans women and children.

@riley Right. By the way, that poem itself is about World War II and Germany. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Persecution_of_homosexuals_in_Nazi_Germany

@regendans The Original Nazis had a lot of Currently Designated Bad People. Communists and Jews (which many Nazis liked to conflate) were usually at the top of the list.
