    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.

      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"

      I wish that Democrats had listened to that poem when they were supplying an active genocide, adopting Republican policy on the border, or running anti-trans hate in their own ads. They decided to give Republicans a running start.
