Reply #38: First they came for the Niemoller co-optations,

[Occam Bandage]

and I did not speak up because I do not co-opt Niemoller.

Then they came for the cries of "fascism,"
and I did not speak up because I do not call policies I do not like fascist.

Then they came for the Hitler comparisons,
and I did not speak up because I do not compare politicians to Hitler.

Then they came for me,
and there were no rhetorical devices left to call my enemies Nazis.
