You might be seeing images coming out of Turkey with huge protests against Erdoğan.
But who is Erdoğan?
Why, he’s our dear friend in the EU who we pay billions of euros to so he keeps the Brown people away from our shores, of course.
Hey @EUCommission, wanna wave to your BFF? Go on, don’t be shy!

Turkey isn’t a dictatorship.
(Is what people who want to stay out of prison say in Turkey.)
In Turkey, one of the prerequisites for running for president is to already be the president.
The moment of the arrest of Istanbul Mayor Ekrem İmamoğlu, suspected of stealing $7 billion.
The Turks see that as a political witch hunt as this popular mayor is an Erdogan bitter rival.
This crackdown occurred just days before İmamoğlu was slated to be nominated as the presidential candidate for the opposition Republican People's Party (CHP).

For those of you not paying attention (because Middle Eastern country, amirite?), Turkey followed the neoliberalism to fascism pipeline (in this case Islamofascism) almost a quarter of a century before the US (with Christofascism/technofascism… Christo-techno fascism?)
Lots to learn here and a glimpse into your future in the US unless you can do something about it. (Hint: appeasement and compliance do not work.)
Here’s a talk I gave at an event in Berlin eight years ago against Erdoğan’s representative and regime. I also haven’t been back to Turkey for eight years. This is not a coincidence.

(İmamoğlu’s people actually invited me to give a talk a few years ago and I asked them if they could guarantee my safety if I flew into Istanbul. Needless to say, the answer was no.)

And now they’ve arrested him.
Erdoğan, the dictator, doing what dictators do.
