We often quote the poem “First they came for…” to try and provoke compassion based on the reader’s desire for self-preservation.
We SHOULD be compassionate because other human beings are under attack - not just because WE might eventually be targeted.
#HumanRights should extend to EVERYONE!

If you’re drawn to a politician because they promise to be cruel to Muslims or Jews or immigrants or gays or transgender people etc, the least you should do - the absolute, bare bones, still morally vacuous least - is ask yourself whether they’re likely to stop at the group you want to see targeted.
