Election 2020


Joseph Biden Wins!

This is what I posted the day after the 2016 election:

Trump wins. I'm appalled. I'm horrified. I'm depressed.
I fear for my country. I fear for humanity.

Unfortunately my worst fears have indeed become manifest.

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.

First they came for the Muslims, and I did not speak out — Because I was not a Muslim.
Then they came for the Mexican Americans, and I did not speak out — Because I was not Mexican American.
Then they came for the LGBTQ community, and I did not speak out — Because I was not LGBTQ.
Then they came for the black community, and I did not speak out — Because I was not black.
Then they came for the press, and I did not speak out — Because I was not a member of the press.
Then they came for the women, and I did not speak out — Because I was not a woman.
Then they came for me — and there was no one left to speak for me.

"We must, indeed, all hang together or, most assuredly, we shall all hang separately." (Ben Franklin)

Angela Davis is Voting for Biden, But You Think You are Too ‘Revolutionary’ for That?
