I think you should try and see both sides here and just forget this.
Throughout this thread the UK and US have been insulted by the Turkish and a US member here has left the site because of it too!
I agree we should just calm down and put all this in context. |
This is about the atmosphere of the forum. If someone is coming here just to "criticize" Turkish(Or British, or American) people with irrelavant and irritating sarcasm then this merely causes a negative energy and the forum turns into a bad political forum in which everyone "criticize/insult" everyone.

Quoting aenigma x: Quoting qdemir: I do know you. You do know that very well.
Let's let other users evaluate the rest. The posts of every single user on here are available to any user who would like to view them. |
Qdemir, I can only say that if you knew me, you would not judge me by the actions of my government.
Of course anyone's posts are available for viewing.
I actually found your post rather sinister |
I have 621 posts. If you manage to find out even a single negative, or whatever adjective you would like to choose to call it, remark (pls pay attention I don't say a post) about your nation and government I will definetely admit whatever you say, and of course apologize to you in capitals.

Guys,lets be calm out here a little bit,
This stiuation is not the first,and im afraid wont be the last too.
To talk sarcastic about İslam,and Türkiye is not acceptable of course,i know catwoman has apologized as she did before too.
But let's be reasonable here,or shall i say realistic,
What has catwoman said ,and not all'and i say again ALL' the Western countries not saying it out loud ?
Maybe there are some logical Western people dont think the same,but the governments attitude not saying this im afraid.
At least she is brave enough and stated the truth about the stiuation which is sadly the real one !
Yes,she shouldnt has said that,because we try to get close here as people and as cultures.
We try to understand each other with RESPECT.
And i have a word or two to you all Turkish people.
You are arguing and not accepting what have been said 'which im with you %100'
But what did you do about it ? huh ?
You just withdraw from a battle as simple as that ?
You shout,you fight, so people will draw back ?
Ohhhh,pleasee,get real here.
First,we have learnt that a good words got more effect than a weapon, right ?
So talk ,join and let Western people know you,to see how wrong they are,or their governments on judging you.
Second,is this the Turkish character ?
İs this the way you won your wars in the long history of your Empire?
This is what you've learnt from your history ?
To draw back ? !!!
İm disappointed really
You dont feel its enough for her to apologize,especially because that is not the first time
İ agree with that, so, there is another solution to show your protest
How about,to pick a date and lets say today or tomorrow,and all Turkish people and everyone felt offended about this not sharing in any activity in TC
No posting nor translating,even you are here,but dont join.
This way, you will feel you made a good reaction,you have protest in a positive way and at same time not drawing from a battle !
Doğru mu ?

Well..I do agree...but also think that most of us on this thread are guilty of that. Why single out Catwoman?

|
Canli, this is the problem. I can only speak for the UK government, but there were many protests both inside and outside the government about the Iraq "war". Prominant politicians resigned their posts in protest. We are not silent in our anger about Tony Blair's decision. Yet... you say "maybe there are SOME logical Western people"....in a vague, disbelieving way?

Well,not a disbelieving way really,but as a percentage,im afraid aenigma,the logical Western people are still some,regarding to the whole.

I think, in the other thread, I explained why Catwoman is unique compared to other users. Catwoman provocates Turkish users here with her way of writing. She uses the most-irritating sarcasms for Turks.
I think If Catwoman gives up her "activist movement" in this forum, the problem will largely be solved.

Well I guess its your prerogative to judge people in any way you like. I assume you carried out a survey of all "western" (God, I hate that word) people to form this percentage?
Personally, if I meet someone new I don't make assumptions about them based on their nationality. I judge people by what they say and do. As INDIVIDUALS.
Still... each to their own...
