I think this is serious misunderstanding of what is now going on in Turkey. The 'mall in park' thing was just a trigger. I understand that you are somehow comparing this to Stuttgart protests but from what I read about it I think this is totally different situation.
Example: I was born in a country occupied by Russians. And there were some protests (even violent) triggered by things like our hockey team beating Russian team at the Olympics. Of course that this had nothing to do with ice hockey and everything to do with the tension and unhappiness that builds up for years.
- claudius 13y agoI agree that there is more[0] to it now than a few people wanting to keep a park, yet the comment I originally replied to was: > This is disgusting, the "right" to profit/property is the least important thing, it should never trump people's well-being or the environment. which I interpreted as just that. [0] Whether that ‘more’ is better is, given the levels of violence, rather subjective.
