Correction, they brought down Abdulhamid II and created a democracy then they realized that having a democracy in which everyone either wants the country to fall apart or be decentralized to the point of none-existence of a central government was a stupid idea, thus they become dictators.
Democracy is a complete farce. Thoroughly vulnerable to manipulation by foreign entities, and internal interest groups. Prone to demagoguery.Correction, they brought down Abdulhamid II and created a democracy then they realized that having a democracy in which everyone either wants the country to fall apart or be decentralized to the point of none-existence of a central government was a stupid idea, thus they become dictators.
This is an arch conservative party in my eyes, like the Christian Zionist bloc of Republicans in the US.
Wasn’t that Turkish military like this before? – Especially Turkish military memorandum ‘97(?).military dictatorship / tutelage
Democracy without rule of law is ochlocracyDemocracy for democracy sake (bounded by no law, and especially laws that are not up for vote regd individual rights) leads to tyranny of majority, lawlessness and then destruction of the nationstate itself.
Always tough against women or in groups, always tough with their mouth but they can't back up anything.OH MY GOD

Here's the account of one the jihadists. As usual, police won't do shit.
Is this now the 51st anniversary of butthurt chants?
What I see there is that they hold up their hate towards Turks.Is this now the 51st anniversary of butthurt chants?

Something our people should do too, we are surrounded by terrorist countries. Being soft as people only kills them over time. Turks need to become more brutal in general again, call it barbaric or whatever.
Like I said many times, strong Countries/Empires tend to die from within.well you know who else hates Turks in Turkiye? Its the ones who allow the PKK supporters to roam and celebrate freely.
Who cares what the Greeks think about Turks & Turkey? They are nothing! Even Europe would abandon them if the going got really tough, e.g. attacked from Russia.What I see there is that they hold up their hate towards Turks.

I agree but the point still stands. Turks need to become stronger, more vicious in their mindset. More united against EVERY danger to the Country.Turkey doesn't need to actively fuck such countries to be taken seriously.
It bothers them more when they are ignored, everyone knows that Greece are absolute cowards who hide behind other countries and they know that best themselves.
Countries that really have capacity and are powerful don't bark.
Nor do they go to other countries and beg for these or those (weapons) not to be delivered to Turkey.

China is a good example.
But you all know better than I do, and I'm on the wrong track.....Erdogan is not the ideal politician for Turkey and yes he is running a one man show, and yes he is an autocrat like Trump, Putin & Xi Jinping.
But for me he is MOMETANELY without alternative the other politicians are lame ducks, they have no foreign policy expertise, you would play ping pong and 7D chess with them in international politics and their own dynamics and complexities at the same time and Imamoglu would always be the loser or would bend. Erdogan is more resistant because he has created a network of foreign policy ties and dependencies over two decades. I simply don't trust Imamoglu to be able to protect Turkish interests in the long term.
Then Charisma and an understanding of democracy alone will not be enough to keep Turkey afloat internationally.
Imamoglu would have or would work in peacetime to build a foundation in Turkey.
But we are seeing a turning point in history, with power blocs shifting or dissolving. The USA no longer wants to share power and no longer wants to play world police, it has become a hard-nosed transaction-based government, China is on a confrontational course with the USA. Russia is playing its own game with Europe. The world has never been so insecure and destabilized as it is now as a whole power structure.

The Chinese say it best that every country needs to formulate political structures which fit their context. Turks for example, imo, should have a government centered on military dictatorship / tutelage. The best Turks will always materialize in a soldiers uniform, not in a politicians suit.
