it feels pertinent to say that no, they didn’t come for the socialists first

they came for disabled people first

That disabled people, LGBTQ folks, as well as Roma and other Travellers aren't there, is telling.

But it is also heartening that the only real domestic policy loss the Nazis took was their anti-disabled people one. Mass protests and resistance against it worked to hold back the death and sterilisation machine.

I also assume the poem is only once in power, as the SA were killing socialists and Jews in an unofficial basis long before Hitler became Chancellor.

Many LGBTQ liberated from concentration camps at the end of WW2 were moved straight back into regular jails.
