It’s been largely out of the western media sphere these days due to the shit river that is Trumpistan, but Turkey’s dictator Erdogan has begun outright arresting political opponents prior to elections, and it has sparked a massive uprising in the country.. Protesters are currently being met with force and being arrested by the hundreds.
I’ve been fed a little bit of info from a friend who lives in Turkey, as of a few minutes ago police have begun using lethal devices (flare guns) against protestors too.
While true, Erdogan has also been very supportive of Ukraine and Europe emerging as a power independent of America.
So, despite having spent the past decade destroying Turkish democracy, he may still be remembered more positively than Donald Trump.
