Politics in Turkey no longer produces ideas; it governs tribes. People are judged not according to values, but according to rank. Law, morality, merit... All of these are crushed under the psychology of the tribune.<\/p>\n
Just yesterday, they were going from screen to screen and saying \u201che is our friend\u201d, \u201cwe vouch for him\u201d, \u201cwe stand by him\u201d, but today they turn around and call him \u201cdishonorable\u201d, \u201csold out\u201d, \u201cconfessor\u201d. So, doesn't one ask?<\/p>\n
If these guys were so bad, why did you stand in front of the people yesterday and vouch for them?
\nIf they were the right people yesterday, why were they declared traitors overnight?<\/p>\n
The real problem is not a few mayors or a few statements.
\nThe real problem is that politics in Turkey no longer produces character but position.<\/p>\n
In our country, people become \u201ctraitors\u201d not because they commit a crime, but because they change sides.
\nIf a person is loyal to the government or the party center, even if there is a file on him, he is called an \u201chonorable person of struggle\u201d.
\nWhen the same person starts talking, he suddenly becomes an \u201casshole\u201d, a \u201csellout\u201d, a \u201cspy\u201d.<\/p>\n
This is not a rule of law.
\nThis is a primitive tribal reflex.<\/p>\n
Parties in Turkey no longer function like political organizations, but like a cult of allegiance. Those who stand by the leader are declared moral and those who leave are declared immoral. That's why no one searches for the truth; everyone checks their allegiances.<\/p>\n
Muhittin B\u00f6cek, \u00d6zkan Yal\u0131m or someone else...
\nNames don't matter.
\nBecause the issue is not individuals, but a rotten political culture.<\/p>\n
In Turkey, a politician's reputation is measured not by what they do, but by who they stand with that day.
\nThat's why coherence is dead in the country.
\nPrinciple is dead.
\nPolitical morality is dead.<\/p>\n
And you know what the worst thing is?<\/p>\n
Society is no longer surprised by this.<\/p>\n
Because people have gotten used to the fact that what was praised yesterday is lynched today.
\nHe got used to being called a \u201chero\u201d one day and a \u201ctraitor\u201d the next.
\nThe biggest downfall of this country is not economic;
\nis the collapse of moral memory.<\/p>\n
The biggest problem of the political establishment today is not the corruption allegations.
\nThe biggest problem is that everyone knows each other's dirt and only speaks when there is a conflict of interest.<\/p>\n
So it's not about justice.
\nIt is about power struggle.<\/p>\n
And the people now see this:
\nFor many politicians in Turkey, honesty is not a universal principle; it is a temporary position.<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
