When the Nazis came to take away the communists,
I kept silent,
because I was not a communist,

When they imprisoned the social democrats,
I kept silent,
for I was not a social democrat,

When they came for the trade unionists,
I didn’t protest,
because I was not a trade unionist,

When they came to take the Jews away,
I didn’t protest,
for I was not a Jew,

When they came to take me away,
there was no one else who could help me.

Martin Niemöller.

The new normal is the politically correct name for this new world: a place where you have lost the right to privacy.

A world where… if you want to continue using services like WhatsApp. You have to accept all kinds of conditions that allow all-powerful companies to use your personal data: your search histories, our behaviors, our geolocation, and so on.

A world where they make you feel unique and special, but the reality is that your opinion is given less and less importance.

A world with Stockholm syndrome. Where we idolize our jailers because we have been deprived of our freedom for too long.
