“We got some good fascism juice going, I see. Stay classy! Your day is coming.”

And to paraphrase Martin Niemoeller (with apologies, but the principle is the same):

“First they came for the smokers and I didn’t speak out, because I wasn’t a smoker — let’s judge them, curse them out instead

Then they came for the obese and I didn’t speak out, because I wasn’t obese — let’s judge them, curse them out instead

Then they came for the elderly and I didn’t speak out, because I wasn’t old — let’s judge them, curse them out instead, do they want to live forever, let them die!

Then they came for the chronically ill and I didn’t speak out, because I wasn’t ill — let’s curse them out, they are using healthcare too much, do they want to live forever, let them die!

Then they came for me, and there was nobody left to speak out for me.”
