"First they came for" Als sie kamen lit. 'When they came', or Habe ich geschwiegen lit. 'I did not speak out'), is the poetic form of a 1946 post-war confessional prose piece by the German Lutheran pastor Martin Niemöller (1892–1984). It is about the silent complicity of German intellectuals and clergy following the Nazis' rise to power and subsequent incremental purging of their chosen targets.

Tucker Carlson, Joe Rogan, people are flocking.

Malala Yousafzai is intelligent. She articulates issues clearly. She describes the problems of people not understanding each other, learning, teaching, education.

She doesn't shit-talk people like Donald Trump does. So she isn't nearly as popular as Donald Trump. She doesn't shit-talk people like Vald Putin does. She doesn't shit-talk human beings like Elon Musk does in favor of machines of xAI and Tesla motors.

Palestine supporters / Israel supporters. They do not want to face the problems that Malala is articulating and describing. They just avoid it by avoiding her words.

“I couldn’t understand what the Taliban were trying to do. “They are abusing our religion,” I said in interviews. “How will you accept Islam if I put a gun to your head and say Islam is the true religion? If they want every person in the world to be Muslim, why don’t they show themselves to be good Muslims first?” ― Malala Yousafzai, I Am Malala: The Girl Who Stood Up for Education and Was Shot by the Taliban. October 7, 2013.
