I don't really understand the love this post is getting. It's the same way I feel about the Niemöller poem
The reason to act with integrity is because integrity is everything. The idea that it's okay to act without integrity if it means you won't be a target?
That's Santa Claus morality
I get that this is persuasive to get people who are otherwise afraid to do the right thing. But the reason you stand up when they come for the socialists is because it's the morally correct thing to do

@kims I figured it was directed at people who don't really understand integrity. I'd like them to do the right thing because it's right, but at this point I'll settle for "right things, questionable motivation." If something like this gets them there, okay.
