The Greek genocide claims are particularly baffling because it seems like most of the time they are referring to either the population exchange or civilian casualties during the Turkish War of Liberation. Which is massively dishonest because the 1st one isn't a genocide by any stretch of the imagination and the 2nd one pretty much always ignores the Turkish civilian casualties during the same conflict and means that basically any war where civilians were killed can be defined as a "genocide" which effectively makes the term meaningless.
It's like every single minority that existed during the Ottoman Empire's declining years has decided to jump on the genocide bandwagon to fish for pity points.
The problem was a lot of Turks kept on saying look it was the Ottoman Empire not us or Ataturk.
Now its the Ottoman Empire, Turks and Ataturk all complict in this bullshit genocide.
Well fck them. If the Turks did not fight back we would have been genocided and kicked out of Anatolia just like what happened to the Muslims in Spain.
With the Treaty of Sevres we would have ended up just like Palestine.
Ataturk led the defence of our nation while the Ottoman Empire collapsed and our future was uncertain.
Greeks and the Armenians along with their backers were perfectly fine with us Turks getting extinguished.
For them Turks and Muslims all needed to be wiped out.
Its not a genocide never will be. They tried to wipe us out and my ancestors fought back. They are crying genocide because they could not wipe us out.
Ataturk was not a Hitler he was just a man serving his nation. The genocide accusations are all bullshit.
