It's good wisdom and evokes Pastor Martin Niemöller's famous poem. It's a good warning against authoritarian states which seek to divide and conquer their own citizens. Such states attack the weakest members first; the outliers and minorities.
In the case of MAGA; they attack transpeople, gays and brown illegals. The latter includes even American citizens who have an illegal immigrant parent.
Our nation needs both more tolerance and immigration reform. Both of which will not be coming from the current White House.
