@aviatoreb, remember that poem you semt me.  Sounds similar 

First they came for the Socialists, but I was not a Socialist so I did not speak up.  Etc

Niemöller is perhaps best remembered for the quotation¹:

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.
