Its politics has always been crazy

Ive been watching it more since that paper

Erdogan likes to consolidate his power whenever possible

paywall

that work?

yup

heres another

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

But even main stream news outlets

i barely use my twitter because of the bs

I lost trust in the MSM when they started reporting on tweets. If your profession depends on Twitter, I ask you to question your life decisions.

i just retweet weeb shit

yea reporting on tweets drives me nuts

like peter griffon once said "Oh my god WHO CARES!"

Turkey may be hard to talk about but we should still talk about it

"This just in snapchat filters racist?!"

*trying to avoid The Who pun*

lol
