Living in a pathocracy

[aurora]

You have to live to understand it. Everyday there is something that hurts you deeply. Your pshycholgy is affected. The country is like a madhouse. The leaders have gone over the fence into delirium. Take the latest incident. The great mine accident, the dead are counted at 285 as of now and there are more than 200 workers still down there.

And they say dying is bliss, some say dying of carbon monoxide poisoning is a sweet death. These people cannot be human. People trying to ptotest in the town where deaths have occured are gassed and water cannoned. Even that leader punches someone who boos him. That coal mine was privatized and they boasted of decreasing costs.

I will not say the name of the country, you can guess it. I cannot watch the news, it hurts so badly. These workers were forced to vote for that party by being threatened that they will be fired. These workers work for starvation limit salaries. But they have to work nonetheless. When this mine was state owned there was no accidents. But the state-owned mine had a unit cost 130-140 dollarrs. Now the unit cost has decreased to 29 dollars.

Just like in Hitler's Germany, the feeling of helpnessness and fury building inside you is just too much. That man says he will stay in politics till he dies. He is trying to change the electroral system so that they will win all the seats.

This is all for now.

You are referring to the mine explosion in Turkey, right?

It's a horrible tragedy...

In general, Erdogan's government looks like a dictatorship, just about every other government in the world right now.

Erdogan seems to have connections with this ridiculous and highly abusive cult leader:

this one in Turkish too:

I think it will be very helpful for you, and also for other readers if you write an account from your own perspective of how it is to live in Turkey at this time, so that more of us become aware of what's going on "over there".

If you don't have a Facebook account or your own blog, you can create one and write anonymously, if you prefer, in your own language.

There have been so many demonstrations the past year, there must be others who feel the same way as you do. And I think people need to know, more than anything else, that there are others out there who feel as they do, and they can put words to the anger and pain that you all feel. This brings people together and the keeps the fire of anger and the wish for things to change, burning. So share your anger and your pain, is my suggestion.

And there was also the youtube ban in Turkey recently:

That sounds like a very useful plan. And still if you need to breath try to remember EE, aurora.

People protest but unfortunately it does not change anything. They do not understand anything. They see the people who are demonstrating as their enemies. Like Bush had said "Either you are with me or against me." That's the mentality. They are subhuman. I try to explain this to anyone who will listen. The army is shattered to pieces, sent to prison with maniacal reasons. Lots of journalists, writers all went to prison. Some have died there. After 5-6 years some are released but still not acquitted. This is truly a fascist state. Even Hitler had a seemingly logical reason at the start, to bring Germany out of the humiliation after WW I. But their reason is just pillaging, hoarding as much as they can. All they tell is lies, lies and more lies without blushing. They do not have any consciense, period.

The national intelligence agency have been given too much power and authority, they are almost above the law. The internet is being monitored also. Youtube is still down. Everything written in Political Ponerology is true for our country.

They are meddling with everything, the education system, the football clubs, even big business because a hotel belonging to them allowed demonstrators from last May enter the hotel while fleeing from the police. He sends the tax auditors to these big holdings and fine very high taxes. He even tries to tell the central bank what to do. The central bank is supoosed to be autonomous.

Even this site might be down one day.
