Because as famous line says, great minds talk about ideas while small minds only can talk about people. Propaganda machine is doing that, repeating lies, rumours and fill up small minds with that so they believe everything they heard. Akıncı was a mucahit, a veteran, he fought for his people, he was the mayor of capital (Nicosia) in 80s, he devoted his life to his people and elected with 65% majority in his first presidential election (and got 48% support in the last one while a 85 million big country put every effort to remove him from seat) As he was neither corrupt or obedient they demonize him. So attacking personal life is number 1 strategy to gain small minds. One of his daughters attend a university in UK, then moved to US, she become a successful fashion designer in the US and married to an American with Greek descent.. wow Greek origin, than Akıncı loves Greeks, he is a traitor, he will sell our cause in Cyprus...
Fun Fact.. Turkey is the one selling Turkish Cypriots again and again! First in 1878 Cyprus Convention, then in Lozan in 1924, then 1995 for Customs Union, then 1999 and it goes.. it is a bargaining chip but propaganda machine tells a different story, Turkish Cypriots are traitors unless they are not racists.
They are doing same to opposition, one day Imamoğlu is best friend of PKK and the other day he is with Greek bishops, oh look at him he wished peace between Greece and Turkey, he must a spy of Greece, probably he is pontus.
Yes Greece is not friendly recently, but their stance about EEZ has not been changed last 20 years, what changed now? Turkey has changed its stance, it is more assertive and Greece fears, fear leads to anger, anger leads to hate, case solved may the force be with you.
