The groundwork of military coups is laid by demonstrations and through social media, as is the case in Egypt, Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdoğan has said, in remarks apparently also referring to the Gezi Park protests in Turkey that have been ongoing continued since late May.

--------------

Mentality of the PM is not looking very healty.

He has to grasp of the situation, He has to realize that the protests are partly the result of his personal narsisistic, old style, ´you will live like this, you will NOT do that´ type of  leadership. The people who have been protesting in Gezi are the same people who would also resist a coup.

The subject here are the RULES we take from "foreigners", but fail to follow. No need to preach them their own stuff.

 

 

It is so funny that you think you own this site because this is Turkish Class and you are Turks.

 

+1

That is the mentality. Even the common rules which are necessary to follow in order to live in a society without being a thorn, can be disregarded because ´they are taken from foreigners´. This mentality is always  extented into other values such as democracy ´democracy  is not a Turkish invention so it does not work for us´, racism ´It is the invention of west, we can not be racist´, genocide ´the definition comes from the west. Never´ etc etc.

I have and do use the block function of Facebook, but Facebook is more personal, you can actually know the people there.  

 

 

 

If we had that type of function ( in the end, it is just a button), it is your own choice to use it or not.

Why would that type of function bother users? It is just a button. You dont need to use it.

ps. It is not a red button to exterminate the world.. is it? lol Just freedom of choice..

I think people can decide what to see and what to read by themselves.

 

it is very simple..you have not read all posts

for instance I dont agree TV so I dont watch it.....

and I think it cant be compared Turkish Class to facebook...(even I have an account at facebook, I dont read all posts..but I love to read here, at TC..my point of view..)

 

Yes you dont like watching TV and then switch to a ´better channel´, you switch to a less ´garbage´ channel. That is what I am trying to do here.. Having freedom to ignore some of the programmes which you think it is garbage.. Why having this ability bother you or others?

I think FB is a social media and so as TC. It is a kind of ´freedom of choice´. Freedom of choice can not be a bad thing.. can it?

Why would ´freedom of choice´ bother others?

You are absolutely right elena,

Fascists come in all shapes and sizes.....and they talk about freedom of expression, empathy, love of mankind...but their sneaky suggestion of censorship always follow !{#emotions_dlg.alcoholics}

 

Ha ha

I think you might have thought what fascism is as you have been accused of being one many times and you are one in your heart. But i think my idea was very clear:

I was not suggesting to supress anybody´s ideas what so ever. All I was saying was ´freedom of blocking individuals´ ie. freedom of not seeing what they post. It is like you blocking people from sending PMs to you.

If you think this is a censorship I think you would have to rethink it all again.

´Users  must all be allowed to express  ideas and thoughts and if you don´t agree either say s´.
I was not suggesting to supress anybody´s ideas what so ever. All I was saying was ´freedom of blocking individuals´ ie. freedom of not seeing what they post. It is like you blocking people from sending PMs to you.

´Because the ignoring user could not avail the usefull information/post provided by that user´? Well that is my point. what if you believe the user is not posting any usefull information? what if you see single line posts/links with just rubbish from the same user again and again?


Of course these are just personal opinions but why is it wrong giving the freedom of choice to the users? It is just like facebook. You can block a user. I think it is a valid and useful function.

This is only a suggestion!

I think it will be very useful to have a  functionality of ´ignoring users´ in TC.

Ie if you ignore me you dont see my posts, if I ignore a user, I dont see that user´s posts. 



Thread: Army ousts Egypt´s President Morsi

Quoting Abla

Tariq Ramadan from the University of Oxford analyses the situation in Egypt in this article. He calls the coup a media-military operation of the highest order. Among other things he says

 

 

1) the army did not return to politics because it never left in the first place

2) the decision to overthrow Mohamed Mursi was made long before June 30th

3) blackouts, shortage of gasoline and natural gas came to an abrupt end after the fall of the President

4) Abdul Fatal al-Sisi maintained close connections to Israel even while Mursi refused contact with them

5) both Muslim Brotherhood and the President were surprisingly simple-minded and suffered from lack of experience; they could not believe the U.S. would accept such a thing as a coup d´état in Egypt

6) the USA and the EU have no quarrel with the political Islam and the salafi literalists of the Gulf states and their denial of democracy

7) the silence of the Western governments tells us all we need to know: there was no Arab spring.

 

 

http://www.tariqramadan.com/spip.php?article12927&lang=fr

 

 

It is all about keeping up appearances. And we people are so naive.

 

Sudden Improvements in Egypt Suggest a Campaign to Undermine Morsi
..
 Not only did police officers seem to disappear, but the state agencies responsible for providing electricity and ensuring gas supplies failed so fundamentally that gas lines and rolling blackouts fed widespread anger and frustration.


“This was preparing for the coup,”

But it is the police returning to the streets that offers the most blatant sign that the institutions once loyal to Mr. Mubarak held back while Mr. Morsi was in power.

..

----------------

I think Egypt ancient fascist regime is fighting back.

The events are very similar to the events in Turkey we saw in the past: State institutions refuse to provide the services to prepare the coup; creating a sense of lack of security, undermining the fuel supply, undermining the quality of life etc.
