minding your buisness and not preventing fascist dictators has as a consequence that violence will be enacted wether you want it or not silence is violence not because of some ideals but because of the way reality is
Or specifically in this case and paraphrasing somebody else adaptation on this and the original author's whole point:
"First they came for Palestinians but because I was not a Palestinian I did nothing"
I like this because it is so flexible. Who's the fascist? What constitutes minding your business and doing nothing?
