There's a reason that I set up my blood donation days on Fridays
Hahah
wish i could do those but i pass the fuck out so nah
"President Tayyip Erdogan, who won another five-year term in a June 24 election and also gained sweeping new powers under a constitutional overhaul, has promised not to renew the state of emergency after its expiry on July 18."
I actually donate platelets. It's the easiest way to get myself to focus on movies I ought see
i did my POSC final on Turkey potentially joining the EU before i started to hate the EU and i cannot stand Erdogan
neat
Turkey is just in a weird place in the history of politics
https://www.ft.com/content/512ae196-8132-11e8-bc55-50daf11b720d I wonder if this would be of interest to Tim?
Its politics has always been crazy
Ive been watching it more since that paper
Erdogan likes to consolidate his power whenever possible
paywall
damn
really
that work?
yup
It'd be interesting, but I think Tim's built up his name enough that he can't do any investigating directly
aaah so apparently they are connected to who Erdogans blaiming for the coup
thats true
I cant wait until I move I'll be so happy to leave this company
although just making a quick vid or something would be nice
get people aware
tbh im suspicious of that coup
It'd be a vid comparing actual persecution of the press to the US media play, to be honest
I wrote about it AS it was happening and how itd effect theyre joing the EU
That's if the EU lasts
thats fine with me
def
EU is trying to fast tract turkey to get more power
Actually, in terms of Turkey and the EU, that Sargon vid with the UKIP guy talking about judicial issues would be interesting
even with the human rights violations and such
true
i think Turkey tends to go unnoticed in the Tuber sphere although i could be wrong
Turkey is hard to talk about.
Kinda funny how much we take our system for granted yet all these other countries have to deal with human rights violations and we get pissed about a tweet
Twitter is the realm of the perpetually offended, they're just doing their self-imposed jobs
