- AnimalMuppet 7y agoProbably because most of us think that Turkey is going after the Kurds in Syria not because the Kurds tried to implement socialism, but because the existence of their separate space in Syria encourages the Kurds in Turkey to also want a separate, independent space (or state).
- fallingfrog 7y agoRight but everything I said and everything you said about Erdogan’s motivations can be true at the same time. Look: in rojava you have Kurds, yazidis, Arabs, all living together without conflict. In turkey you have the suppression of the Kurdish language and ongoing ethnic strife. The two motivations go together.
- fallingfrog 7y agoI’m pretty sure it’s because I used the word “socialism” which provoked a negative emotional response among a certain set of people.
