First they came for the Muslims... then they came for the cryptocurrency.
First they came for the Muslims, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a Muslim.
Then they came for the whistleblowers, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not a whistleblower.
Then they came for the cryptocurrency users, and I did not speak out—
Because I was not using cryptocurrency.
Then they came for me—and there was no one left to speak for me.
Martin Niemöller (1892–1984)

Good point, we must stick up for everyone. It's about what's fair and right. We can stay on the sidelines just because individually we are not affected. For surely, there will be a time when it will be your turn and you will be affected. Who will we turn to then?
Thanks for reading! @steppingout23
Speaking out is important.
