First they came after the history department, but I didn’t play history, so I did not speak up.
Then they came for the literature department, but I didn’t play literature, so I did not speak up.
Then they came for the cross country program, and I was like, what’s cross country and why are these skinny dudes wearing university clothing all the time?
Then they came for the football team but no one was in the stadium anyway. Wait, where was I going with this again?
