worth noting, that one of the first groups the nazis attacked (along with disabled people & trans folx) was communists. also worth noting is that famous “first they came” poem starts with a line about communists. this line is typically censored in the United States.
Original text of the poem “First They Came” by Pastor
Martin Niemöller

First they came for the Communists 
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a Communist 

Then they came for the Socialists 
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a Socialist


Then they came for the trade unionists 
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a trade unionist


Then they came for the Jews 
And I did not speak out 
Because I was not a Jew 

Then they came for me 
And there was no one left
To speak out for meFIRST THEY CAME FOR THE SOCIALISTS, AND I DID NOT SPEAK OUT-
BECAUSE I WAS NOT A SOCIALIST.

THEN THEY CAME FOR THE TRADE UNIONISTS, AND I DID NOT SPEAK OUT-
BECAUSE I WAS NOT A TRADE UNIONIST.

THEN THEY CAME FOR THE JEWS, AND I DID NOT SPEAK OUT-
BECAUSE I WAS NOT A JEW.

THEN THEY CAME FOR ME- AND THERE WAS NO ONE LEFT TO SPEAK FOR ME.

MARTIN NIEMOLLER (1892-1984), 

LUTHERAN MINISTER AND EARLY NAZI SUPPORTER
WHO WAS LATER IMPRISONED FOR OPPOSING HITLER’S  REGIME

This is a bizarre thing to publish on the day the federal court awarded a journalist $220,000 for being unfairly dismissed from an on-air role for their political views. In Australia it isn't just private companies that cave to pressure, it's the public broadcaster www.smh.com.au/national/why...

If you want to understand why progressive people don't believe in the Labor Party anymore, here's a prime example. Julian isn't interested in justice, he's interested in being comfortable. Equating spreading race hate with opposing genocide should be unforgivable. Centrism is a brain disease.

One of many moments in Omar El Akkad’s new book, “One Day, Everyone Will Have Always Been Against This,” that will stop you in your tracks.
There is an impulse in moments like this to appeal to self-interest. To say: These horrors you are allowing to happen, they will come to your doorstep one day; to repeat the famous phrase about who they came for first and who they'll come for next. But this appeal cannot, in matter of fact, work. If the people well served by a system that condones such butchery ever truly believed the same butchery could one day be inflicted on them, they'd tear the system down tomorrow. And anyway, by the time such a thing happens, the rest of us will already be dead.
No, there is no terrible thing coming for you in some distant future, but know that a terrible thing is happening to you now. You are being asked to kill off a part of you that would otherwise scream in opposition to injustice. You are being asked to dismantle the machinery of a functioning conscience.
Who cares if diplomatic expediency prefers you shrug away the sight of dismembered children? Who cares if great distance from the bloodstained middle allows obliviousness. Forget pity, forget even the dead if you must, but at least fight against the theft of your soul.

The philosopher Judith Butler has stated that if you're willing to sacrifice a minority like trans people, you're already operating within a fascist logic. This clearly extends beyond trans people to all minorities, and speaks very clearly and unambiguously about centrism.
