Firstly your Turkish is terrible (no surprises) and secondly your addressee doesn´t speak Turkish.

 

There is an ´advanced´ Turkish usage there but you have never been (and never will be) that advanced and secondly I am sure someone will translate it for Alameda.

Yes, it´s true, I could get someone to translate your attempt, then, of course, it will go through another filter, fruther diluting what ever it was you want to say.

Evidently your desire for my understanding wasn´t that strong, or you would not have trusted it to another. 

I understand....sort of....maybe...

Since you think you are so advanced, there should be no problem for you then to understand this Turkish elite speech.

I agree with Elisabeth. I don´t know of any nation that doesn´t "fight", there are no two people who will completely agree with each other on all topics and everyone wants to be heard.

Fights in TC are rarely among Turks. 

 

 

If someone told me I am not a Finn it would not make the slightest difference to me.

 

I mean we are so different.

I admit Turks can bit agressive at times. As a matter of fact, they go to the extremes in both directions:enemity and friendliness. 

Thehandsom you are not aware of what you are saying most of the time. Calling your countrysmen racists is not a way of initiating a friendly discussion. You are a flavour in this soup. No you are not the Turk or the mastermind who would judge others. 

People should ask themselves how good they are as say a chess player. The wise words they inadvertantly say would have the effect of a critical move in a chess game. Is it the right move or will it be a faux pas. You had better think twice before making those provocative claims.

I think you should just take a hike!!

Yes I am calling some of my countrymen as racists when they act with sheer racism.

Can you show me one or two posts where I accused people with racism for a reason and the reason was not a right reason?

Can you show me any posts from yourself where you came up and warned anybody about their racist posts? (ie All Turks know calling a Turk as Agop is as racist  as calling a white person as negro. can you show me once you came out and wrote a few words against them? Almost all moral codes tell you that ´your silence implies your consent´.)

Let me guess : You wont have any answers to my questions..

Take a chill-pill for me.. will you?

That would make no difference to me either.

That is because we are not  Finns.  {#emotions_dlg.lol_fast}

Gee, you are so aggressive in many of your posts. It does get tedious. You do constantly harp on the topic of racism.

I have a surprise for you....everyone is racist....it´s how we deal with it that defines us. It´s probably only recently humanity has begun to realize the humanity of the whole human race. Many ethnicities language for themselves define themselves as "human" and others as something else.

In the USA blacks were not considered 100% human, which was why they were considered enslaveable. 

In China whites were called Bak Gwei, for Romani being a Rom means being human....I guess others are not(?)...for Jews non Jews were Shegetz, I could go on and on, but I think you get the idea. 

Most species prefer to group together with their own kind....just look around. However, in looking at a field, you will see many different species on the same field getting along. If plants and animals can do it, can´t humans?

Fortunatly these days we (at least some of us) recognize the humanity of all humans, and some even extend that to other species as we learn more about them. Dolphins, for example, we know now that animals have intelligence and feelings. Hopefully we will learn to respect all the creation and treat it accordingly.
