ERDOGAN BAD HURR DURR
Such a great comment section as always. Sometimes I genuinely feel (or rather hope) that most people commenting are 14 years old or younger, but I know they're probably not.
Not that anyone not hyper-propagandized needed to see the obvious reality of this "infamous" slap for themselves, but it says a lot that no one even bothered to look it up before circlejerking to this article which was written exactly for the great minds that would fall for it. I picked a BILD link for you because you share the same level of intelligence with their audience.
Is it impossible to disagree, oppose, hate, or even fight people, without falling for propaganda-produced stereotype-infused cartoonish characterizations relayed via such silly stories?
And the best part is the complete lack of self-awareness among those circlejerking themselves to these stories.
That Israel is anti-Erdogan now angel was quite the addition to the collective retardation though. lmao.
In fairness, given that this is a small unserious community with the objective of making fun of things, I didn't expect this much of a response, that was a bit odd, but neither did I expect an inflamed comment like yours. Chill out, dude, you can post too about other things, you know. Why get so egregiously offended?
And if there is indeed a campaign by Israel to denigrate Erdogan...this post would just be an infinitesimal proportion of it. Just go on reddit and find lots more in more serious communities and discussions of Erdogan, it's all there... 🙃 and you can find the same making fun of Xi, putin, Biden, Trump, Orban, Zelensky, Modi and lots of other sacred cows.
In fairness, this is Not The unserious community 😀
I was laughing at that notion. Erdogan only started to get loud (only verbals, no actions) against Israel after losing some local elections due to Turkey providing materialistic (actual actions) support for Israel, mainly through one of the ports in the Mediterranean. Israel is happy to play along of course since they are used to this (it happened before). The same goes for some "Arab" states (all British-made client feudalisms) who provide support through land (The gulf => Jordan => Israel) to break the partial blockage in the Red Sea.
Erdogan is perfectly capable of denigrating himselfеlf, he's a grown boy who says stupid things all the time, like saying he's going to invade Israel. I have to admit I'd like to see the bastard try now :D
