        First they came for the disabled people, and I said nothing because I was not disabled yet.

        Then they came for the immigrants and I said nothing because my ancestors stole this land generations ago.

        Then they came for the transgender people, and I said nothing because I was not trans.

        Then they came for the rest of the people of color and I said nothing because I was white.

        Then they came for the Jewish people and I said nothing because I was not Jewish.

        Then they came for the rest of the queers and I said nothing because I was not queer.

        Then they came for the leftists and I said nothing because I was not a leftist.

        Then they came for the rest of the women and I said nothing because I was not a woman.

        Then they came for me, and there was no one left to fight for me.
