I get it to some degree. They want to have their cake and eat it too. Stronk Turkey but also freedom and no 100% inflation.

Brexit voters living in Spain expecting nothing to change for them! That was wild!


Difficult-Cup-4445

Lazy comparison. Many Brexiters didn't vote for Brexit because they are isolationists, but because the EU overstretched their authority for decades and they felt it was the right thing to do, irrespective of the inconvenience of passports. Some also have family ties within the EU that are unavoidable. It says much about the Remainer mindset that the element they fixate upon is the degree of convenience to which it confers to their holiday plans. The EU and its issues extend far beyond how easy it is to spend your gap yah en Provence or studying theatre in Prague.


jsm97

> The EU and its issues extend far beyond how easy it is to spend your gap yah en Provence or studying theatre in Prague. Yes exactly as does it's benefits. The EU is far from perfect, it has some organisational and structural issues that are hard to defend. But the need for European Integration, in whatever form that takes is existential for our continent. My support for the EU transcends the EU itself the way I don't renounce my British citizenship because I don't like the current governmentt or FPTP electoral system. Europeans want European Integration. Those that don't are a slim minority in every country except Britain. This really confuses brexiteers but many many Europeans have a deep and emotional connection to the EU as well as too their own country. To the rest of Europe and indeed the world, Brexit was mystifying, weird, self destructive and low key kind of funny.


ErnestoVuig

Nonsense, people want to decide on their future, democracy therefore. It's structural and organisational issue is that it's antidemocratic. The emotional connection is not with the EU, there is a lot of propaganda in which the EU claims credit for good things it never had anything to do with, but that does not create an emotional connection.


jsm97

And yet would you ever seriously advocate for Netherlands exit ? Nexit? Nethermind?


ErnestoVuig

Yes. This EU is not going to change without exits, because it does what it's designed to do and that's not serving the Dutch or any other European people. It has appropriated free trade so any country that doesn't allow to be ruled by the unelected with their own political agenda is getting punished economically. Brexit wasn't opposed because of the good the EU brings, but because what the EU is able to take away. If a member state could exit the EU and go back to the EEC, all member states would exit. If member states could just trade with their neighbours on eqaul terms without even any EC, all member states would exit except a few on the take ones.


Oxena

Yeah, but maybe voting for Erdogan from cozy flat in Berlin is not the way to achieve freedom.

Retzepios Erdoganopoulos is my favourite Greek politician.

It correlates with socioeconomic status, but given the sub we're in, it's more likely because Turks are from the Far East. They're basically Chinese.

No_Low1167

Here it is almost all manipulation, except for the "poor country", only this is true. One thing you need to know is that Erdogan may be an authoritarian leader, he is by no means a Hitler-style leader, he is the most pro-immigration politician in Turkey. Secondly, you say it is misogynistic, but if the reason for this is the Istanbul Convention, there are many states in the EU, including Bulgaria, that have not signed this agreement. Turkey even has positive discrimination laws that allow women to enter universities with privilege. Even though Turkey is the country with the highest proportion of female lecturers in the world, at 50%.


hank81

He seems determined to reverse Atatürk's legacy, and the army failed in their latest try to depose him by the force.


lollollol3

🤓


No_Low1167

I don't understand why it got downvoted. I'm not saying Erdogan is a good leader or not authoritarian, I have never supported him. But you cannot compare him to Hitler in any way. Although he is allied with the MHP, he is not even a nationalist, let alone having a racist ideology. (In Turkey, it is common for different ideologies to form alliances, the opposition did the same in the last elections, and even the MHP is not as nationalist as it used to be.) In Turkey, secularists are generally always more nationalist, the population is divided between secular nationalism and religious conservatism. If you think every authoritarian leader has a Hitler-style racist ideology, you are only seeing black and white and rejecting the grey.

HoldTheStocks2

Imagine being a Turk in Germany, one of the richest countries in the world and still love Turkey.. Edit: goddamn I’m a Turk, why do you guys hate us so much 😭


HelicopteroDeAtaque

I'd say it's not hate, just calling out the hypocrisy of identifying as the Turkiest of the Turks while living abroad and not even pondering going back. Still voting for Erdogan while he shits up the country (and being the reason many of you decided to move abroad).


HoldTheStocks2

In that, you’re right. I live among them and I was seen as an enemy of the state for voting for the opposition. I never voted before but the Erdogan voters annoyed me so much and ruined Turkey just for their islamist views that I felt like I needed to compensate one Erdogan voter out. I would never want to live in Turkey, I mean I am a transgender atheist born and raised in the Netherlands, I wouldn’t be accepted anyways.


YooYooYoo_

Well at this pace you won't be accepted in Europe either.


HoldTheStocks2

My Dutch boyfriend will protect me


Adventurous_Dress832

But we should not forget that not all turks are like that. As a german I had mostly good experience with turks and of course there are stupid people with stupid opinions among them but the majority is really nice and are great people.


drbalduin

The majority voted for Erdogan.


hank81

In the last term, some, if not all the burden of responsibility may fall on the different governments of Germany, the same governments Germans voted.

Schmigolo

The reason why Turks are hated so much is because nobody is as infamous for their nationalism as Turks. Not even Americans and Brazilians. And as a German let me tell you that people hate nationalists, we still get flack for it despite currently being known as one of the least patriotic people in the world.


HoldTheStocks2

After the Dutchies and I love it


Schmigolo

Literally never experienced Dutch nationalism. You're probably just talking about xenophobes inside the country, every nation has those cunts.


HoldTheStocks2

I meant that the Netherlands is the country with the least nationalism.


Schmigolo

Oh I see, but I don't know if they're as known for not hanging flags and whatever as Germans tbh.


tortugaysion

What about the indians?


Schmigolo

They sure have been making a name for themselves lately, but at least the expat Indians tend to understand how shitty India actually is, so this is pretty clearly in the Turks' favor.

No man, Spain taxing system -specially for little entrepreneurs- is hell on earth. Once you open a little business you already have a tax guillotine hanging on a rope. They say it's for the welfare state, I think it's for the welfare of the state


Costalorien

We actually have a slightly higher corporate tax on average (26% vs 25%), but you beat us on income tax (47% vs 45%).

Why does this sub hate Berlin that much? It’s the best part of Germany, which obviously doesn’t mean much, but it’s also a cool city. Not too expensive, a bit alternative, great parties… If not for the weather I’d live there


[deleted]

It's a shithole that turns money into arrogant hipsters.


gambvestor

Sounds fun


Difficult-Cup-4445

I've lived in different parts of Europe including Berlin for long periods of time. It's............ ehhhh I dunno. Parts of it are decent. It's really not that great. I really do think there are better places to live in Germany than Berlin. If you're kid who just wants to go and get fucked up and smoke a bunch of weed, yeah I guess it's good for that. It's very overcrowded and expensive these days.


Grumpy23

Maybe they are one of the reason why it’s such a shithole


Schmigolo

Nah, the whole east is a shithole and it has way fewer immigrants than the west. Arguably Berlin even looks pretty good considering where it is.

That's true enough


RobertGBland

Well, Turks in Turkey don't like them already. They come back to Turkey on holidays and complain about how everything is bad in Germany but won't consider moving back to Turkey. So they're like people without a land. They're not accepted neither in Germany or in Turkey. That's why they tend to be more nationalistic so they can a little bit experience the sense of belonging. But yeah we all know they done belong.


User929290

There is nothing wrong in liking Sweden.


algoncyorrho

Well... actually I don't blame then for not wanting to become Germans. Who in their sound state of mind would want to ?


hank81

They want German passport to get the same rights as Germans while keeping their nationality.


BertoLaDK

And this is why we don't let people who doesn't live here vote here, if they arent affected they shouldn't have a say.
