  “First 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.”

Net neutrality this and that. Google already rules the internet.

First they came for the Communists, and I didn't speak out because I wasn't a Communist. Then they came for the Socialists, and I didn't speak out because I wasn't a Socialist. Then they came for the trade unionists, and I didn't speak out because I wasn't a trade unionist. Then they came for me, and there was no one left to speak for me.

First they came…

As part of my program I have to take a Humanities course to help, supposedly, broaden our knowledge. As former history and sociology student I've learned a lot of the stuff already from previous courses. However, I still manage to come to class all the time because my Prof. is so awesome. He presents the information in such a different and interesting way. He often connects theory to the present day to give us a better understanding of what's going on. Plus he loves showing movies reflecting the lessons and loves pull our emotional strings so we have a better link with the information. Here's one the poems, I don't know if its really a poem but it was presented like it was, that he showed during class. Enjoy.
