    So if shit eating had taken place while trying to overthrow an evil wizard, it would be okay.

    First they came for the porn stars, but I did nothing because I was not a porn star. Then they came for the dirty magazine publishers, but I did nothing because I am not a dirty magazine publisher. Then they came for the pin-up girls, but I did nothing because I am not a pin-up girl.

    And then we had no porn, and no one came for me.
