The xenophobic and racist nature of large swaths of Turkish opposition does not get covered by any global media outlets or activists in the ‘Turkey experts’ bunch It doesn’t serve the usual ‘cute secular opposition challenging Islamist Sultan’ discourse they want to push

Istanbul was lost today to a populist candidate who represents a coalition of parties dominated by racists, Islamophobes & anti-refugees The fight against them is the intersection of MENA’s fight for democracy and European fight against populism

Why is that upsetting if Erdogan talking abt his plans of even more ethnic cleansing in Rojava is not upsetting to u? The euphoric bloodthrist among AKP voters during Afrin invasion? Can't this equally be excused by complicated reasoning that we're not smart enough to understand?

Says a supporter of PKK which deliberately targeted civilians and ethnically cleansed the areas it occupied in Syria.

I can't argue with alternate reality. You win.

Loving our country doesn't make us racist. Have you ever checked the news? Your people killed a man who welcomed them to his house. Your people raped tourist women. Your people brought nothing good to our country but we still have them here. Still waiting for us to welcome them ?
-
It's not about the 'so said Turkish opposition'. It's about you. So stop with these fake news and go the fuck out of our country

Sorry but when it comes to 6 MILLION syrian refugees, all Turks opposition or AKP doesn't matter, think the same.. They must go back to their home. We did more than entire world did for syria. Enough is enough we have no more power to take care of 6 million syrians.

Taking care ?
i think you work in a Syrian company in Istanbul

You should either get your facts straight or shut the fuck up before spreading fake news. This hashtag is used by everyone regardless of their political views. The mayor Imamoglu has himself said on live tv that he supports refugee rights regardless of his rivals or fellows.

Actually opposition or not no one wants them in the country. If you live in Turkey you'll know what I mean. You obviously know nothing. We're just fed up from working for them. If you're really worried take them with you no problem.

And since you are so much into human rights, did you know that AKP government banned the Pride Parade and prosecuted many LGBT+ people? Or is human rights only applicable when it comes to Muslims? Hypocrisy at its best!
-
CHP/k*rdish gays are not prosecuted in Turkey. However, Turks and Muslims are prosecuted in many parts of the world. So you can't make fake comparisons to defend the CHP and Gulenist's campaigns to scapegoat Syrians for the acts of k*rdish terr0rists.
-
Gays are not prosecuted? Are you out of your mind? Go watch YouTube videos or talk to some of them. See how they were beaten down by cops and get imprisoned, how they are socially under pressure. Go check what Erdogan keeps saying about them.
-
Stop lying Gulenist terr0rist. G@y k*rdish p3dophiles are even allowed to have parades. Meanwhile, the likes of you are engaging in violent terr0rism against Turks and Muslims.
-
I won’t be a part of this conversation with you. You are obviously a troll.
-
No, you're obviously a Gulenist troll who is trying to defend the CHP's racist lynch campaign against refugees to distract from k*rdish terr0rism. And you've proven it by being unable to reply to me.
-
No Gulenist terr0rist, I'm f***ing your mother. You're the one without a country remember?
You've been living on welfare in the UK for 20 years and you still can't spell a single word of English correctly.
Typical Gulenist k***
