First they came for the Socialists, and I did not speak out—
Because I took the Kolmogorov option.
Then they came for the Trade Unionists, and I did not speak out—
Because I the Kolmogorov option.
Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out—
Because I the Kolmogorov option.
Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me.
-With apologies to Martin Niemöller.
- philh 9y agoOne of the things TFA is pointing at is that the alternative might be: First they came for the Socialists, and I spoke out, and they decided I was a Socialist and took me away too.
