Considering you say that I don't think you're up to date as to how voting 'works' in Turkey nowadays.

[–] teslasaur@lemmy.world 1 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Yeah, it was widely reported on. Religious people voted for religious nutcase. Tale as old as time.

[–] huppakee@lemm.ee 1 points 5 days ago (1 children)

I know that old tale, bunch of religious people voting for the religious nutcase but when you say 'the turks' you imply it's at least the majority of people but that's not the case here. Don't put the blame on the people, if they haven't been given the chance to vote for their leader in fair and free elections.

But they chose Erdogan.

It's been well documented that whatever Ataturks plan was for a united Turkey, was killed by religion.
