Quoting cynicmystic:

I really don't agree with you. Simple as that.

But, that is what makes these forums so much fun.

I think we will have a great time debating in the future.


I always welcome to intelligent debates!

oh yeah? what are those European standards?


You are tempting me to give the EU standarts about cucumbers, which is rather hilariously detailed, as an example here..

This fear of someone having an agenda is pretty funny actually . What can thehandsom do with his 'agenda'? Bring down the Turkish republic? Start a terrorist organization? lol
What your response shows is that no dissidence from the state ideology is allowed, that's number one pillar of turkish nationalism. Kind of reminds me of Russia :-S where people who disagree with the state mysteriously disappear.
In a normal country, dissident ideas should not only be widely known, but also discussed with mutual respect without suspicion or hate. It is pretty sad actually that you are taught to hate each other in case you see someone who may threaten your government and the 'republic' ideology.

Explain that more please. I'm really curious what you think his 'agenda', other then just saying what he thinks, is.

So that's what it's all about - Handsom The Secret Agenda Agent

Guys, you're free to disagree with him and anyone you wish in the forum, but accusing people of having secret agendas is simply ridiculous and weakens the message of your posts.

If you meant agenda as an opinion, then we all have it. And the point of debating is to contrast different opinions and points of view. If Handsom's agenda is to corrupt Turkey's image then yours must be showing how wonderful, non-nationalistic, non-brainwashed, allowing everyone express their opinions in public your country is.

What I gather from discussions like yours is that the fear and hatred towards "the others" (those who dare to express their thoughts freely) is a proof of your nationalism. You just have to have enemies...How sad...

I keep asking about this agenda for a long time, but so far, I have failed to get an answer!!

But accusing of people having 'a secret agenda' is not one of the genious inventions of these friends.
The concept of 'foreign powers, dark forces, foreign elements, pressing of a button, secret agenda, seeds of discord etc' were invented long time ago in 70s and 80s.

*They are the ones trying to divide Turkey
*They are the ones made us lost the WWI when Germany lost
*They are the ones made Turks and Kurds enemy of each other while we were living peacefully.
*They caused the entire ermenian thing
*They are the ones who are trying to enter the unis with their turbans
*They are trying to convert our people to cristianity with those missionaries.
*They placed the entire left/right problem into Turkey years ago
*They are the people having a button somewhere in EU and USA and pressing on when Turkey does well.
*They have budgets and pay the enemy of Turks in other countries.
*They killed Ugur Mumcu, Hrant Dink etc
*They are behind the energy problem of Turkey and the death of labours in Tuzla Dockyard-It is a recent invention btw-

I am still expecting, somebody will come up with the idea that 'farting problem after eating too much kuru fasulye' is the result of 'dark forces' as well.
