Quoting AEnigma III: Quoting azade: [In my defense it's really hard not to jump the wagon when somebody makes so obvious racist posts   |
I agree about racism, but what makes you think that people here do not feel equally strongly about other subjects?
Arguments are taken far too seriously here - I argue with Turks in the same way I would argue about whose football team is best - you argue and insult and go away smiling.
Unfortunately some non-Turkish members here behave as if you are personally slapping their face. It is very tiresome to have such anger among them always, but fun to see them feverishly sympathising with eachother by PM  |
I agree that arguments are taken far too seriously and I have done that at times here. Look! I'm trying to make up for it There should be room for some joking around as well but seeing this is a serious matter I can't take it lightly..except I guess it is a little laughable to see how unintelligent people are capable of acting.
So yes, it is just an argument on a forum but racism and nationalism is something that has been really damaging in Turkey and it is something that I always try to fight in the real world. Anyone should have the right to fight for a subject they believe in as you started your message with.

OK I have been following this thread and think I have missed something. Is there a post that gives us the english translation of the newspaper report. Because everyone is talking about this horrific incident by these monsters...but from the pictures...picture 1)looks like some girl being grabbed but the girl behind her is watching and smiling!?! picture 2)can't really see anything but press taking pictures and the people watching, again, don't seem stressed they are watching with their arms round eachother, picture 3) just a girl crying with a guy, picutre4 ) they all look happy. I mean, I'm not saying that nothing bad happened, but it doesnt even look as if anyone was hit. If I was there with my husband and someone was sexually assaulting, I know he would hit the guy. Everyone still even has there drinks in their hands, surely if it was something serious there would be at least one picture of someone being hit, or they would have at least put their drinks down. I'm not saying nothing bad happened. I'm just saying I can't understand the newspaper report what it's saying, only the post where someone added quotes from other people about it. But from the pictures I can't see anything worse than what happened even in my tiny island at New Year.

I have argued this point many times with AlphaF and EKTO - but you should only do it if you are in the mood to argue
You should never seriously believe that you can change the opinions of the brainwashed by posting your thoughts here
