Massive protests against Erdogan happening right now because of the arrest of the Istanbul mayor. Our media is pushing it relentlessly which always has me wary.

    The media thinks things will be better under CHP, which is very closely alligned with Europe. But I personally think AKP and CHP as just as bad and pro-Europe/NATO and these protests could have some potential to radicalize people

      The only way these protests are going to do their job is by making people go “what the fuck?” after seeing the second person on tiktok proposing in front of a row of cops back to back
