Tanks moving down streets isn't normal I don't think. Even by Turkish standards.
Anyone know what's going on and why?

Nah, South America was just ahead of time and now it's their turn. The future's here, son.
Let's keep our fingers crossed and we might see ultranationalists turning Europe into 40k. About time chaos started getting removed.

Turkey is going to be a part of Russia soon

My sources say:
The military is kemalists aka secular nationalist. They are known for anti-Erdoğan, pro-secularism and pro-Russia.

Mine confirm this.
To be honest. I hope it is true and the coup is successful.
I am sick of the PCism of the Western World. And I'd rather a pro Russian Eastern Europe than a pro-middle Eastern one.
Makes one wonder how the world would be if the cold war didn't go as poorly for the USSR...

Good, I'm glad Turkey is getting sent to the Abyss. Being a Greek, I have Turks as a Favored Enemy on my statline
Who knows, maybe they'll figure it out. In the meantime, they're just that one country we're going to have to try to explain to the aliens when they arrive.

I think that's quite a ridiculous conspiracy theory tbh. At least 100 people must have died so far.
As mad as Erdogan may be I doubt he'd set this up to 'empower' himself. It makes him look terrible. Too much chaos. Too much death. Under no circumstance would that be good.
That said though, you're in Istanbul Firat? I hope you're staying inside. Military rebels don't seem to be doing much there though, although they're shooting civilians in Ankara.

As we can see from them being out in the streets as much as they are...

And of course you don't deserve any of this.

Alas, this is how the world works
I had a jet sonicboom over my home the other day and it was frankly terrifying - mostly because it was extremely unexpected, but yeah, all the windows thudding and doors being slammed shut through the windows so you definitely have my sympathy.
Stay away from glass. You'll be fine Firat and I'm sure your country will get through this

Re: So what is actually happening in Turkey and why?
Too bad they didn't take out Erdogan. Turkey was supposed to be an example of Islam's compatibility with modern secular democracy (something I become less and less convinced of each year), but they go and elect an Islamist lunatic like Erdogan.
Well, hopefully someone else will take him out or he will lose the next election.

Re: So what is actually happening in Turkey and why?
Wow, its even worse than I thought. Sad how the democratic process can be used to destroy democracy (Europeans take note).
Re: So what is actually happening in Turkey and why?
I apologize for my insensitive comment earlier, it was uncalled for. Best of wishes to you Firat. This seems like a pretty blatant power grab, but I don't really know what anybody is going to do about it :/

Nobody really likes democracy to be honest.
We just accept it because we're told over and over it's the best way it could be done.
There's no actual rational, deep-rooted love for it though. If we had anotehr means of running a country that was viable and gave us as generic, selfish individuals, more power we'd grab it in an instance.

Re: So what is actually happening in Turkey and why?
I dont think that the military were anything but another of those lovely pro-US flower revolution aimed of disposing Edgoran, due to the last being a lunatic and a madman. But i think Turkey is currently fucked beyond believe and i wont be surprised if there will be a civil war with a mix of Kurds trying to gain independence as well.

Btw Atlas, you're just fulfilling a proud tradition of Greeks being assholes towards people from Turkey that stretches back to the Trojan War, so don't feel too bad
Re: So what is actually happening in Turkey and why?
A benign dictatorship is the best way to lead an organization but it doesn't really work for countries.

It worked pretty well for Hussein for a good while. Cult of personality is a lot effective than you think.
