"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 just like everybody else, I
did not speak out because I did not give a shit. Then they came for me
and there was no one left to speak for me.

One line altered, but otherwise it seems to be a faithful reproduction
of the 1946 version.

How would a slant-eyed dimwit like you know? You follow a quack for
medical and spiritual advice, and get all your information from apes.
I posted this to AUE and some intelligent person pointed out that
Communist was substituted for Socialist at some point. I would say
perhaps that's what you were thinking but your pea-brain wouldn't have
known that.

There's a place for everything, and the place for slanted eyes is not
here in America. Go back to whatever Asiatic shit hole you crawled out
from under and please, take that Quack gook with you.

Over a billion people regularly wake up to a pair of slant eyes
every morning.

Mark Zuckerberg is one of them.

The woman in this picture if another one of them.

There are several variations of that quotation, and that one doesn't
look at all authentic. Here's the one I've seen most often:


First they came for the Communists
And I did not speak out
Because I was not a Communist

Then 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 out for me

But what is the English usage question?
