In reply to the discussion: Can we at least not cheer for concentration camps to "teach minorities a lesson" [View all]IbogaProject
(3,656 posts)31. If the camps happen many will be suprised
Nazis took out more than minorities, they started with the disabled. The term Aspeger's was coined to save high functioning autistics.
Here is an infamous quote,
First they came for the socialists, and I did not speak outbecause I was not a socialist.
Then they came for the trade unionists, and I did not speak outbecause I was not a trade unionist.
Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak outbecause I was not a Jew.
Then they came for meand there was no one left to speak for me.
Martin Niemöller
This quote is attributed to the prominent German pastor Martin Niemöller. It is sometimes mistakenly referred to as a poem.
