'Baby, why don't we just turn that TV off?

Three hundred fifteen channels of nothing but bad news on

The whole wide world has gone crazy

So baby, why don't we just dance?...'

What a nice fucking folk/rock fusion man! I hadn't listened to them before, I should really give this album a try. I loved the crow sounder they used between the verses- a nice beat is the most important ingredient to enjoy a song. Hope you didn't lose your mind too much- I would miss my dearest Kae <33!!

Lately I realized I stopped doing everything I liked to do. Now, every time my fingers brush one, my heart fills with a familiar longing. Ain't no one watching me, ain't no one judging me. I don't need to do them perfect, don't even need to finish anything. Being happy is enough. I am enough.

I'll see you all soon. Probably tomorrow, who knows? Maybe the only one who I need to see is me after all.

The security guards of universities and the police beat students to prevent them from walking. They get arrested. Imagine it says that you can do something in the law, but the people who are supposed to protect you beat you to prevent it. Yesterday I heard they ripped a girl's hair off here. It was awful. I wasn't even there and I got so scared for them.

March 20, 2025 - People across Türkiye clashed with riot police as they defied the protest ban, after the AKP had Erdoğan's main political rival Imamoğlu arrested. [video]

[hear-something-different]

The situation in Turkey is dire.

Essentially, the presidential candidate candidate Ekrem Imamoğlu, who is the only candidate who has a chance of winning aganist the 20 year long regime of Erdogan, has been detained for false charges a couple of days before his political party, CHP which is also the largest opposition party in Turkey, has elected their presidential candidate.

This is an active attempt at destroying democracy within the country and also makes it clear at last that Erdogan is a dictator who is ignoring the constitution.

National news channels are not reporting on the protests and side with the government, there is a heavy censorship. The internet has been slowed down to the point of being UNUSABLE without the use of a VPN.

The Taksim Square and ALL the roads going up to it, train, bus, main roads, are all closed off because it is an important and historical place of protest.

There are protests everywhere in the country, in all the major cities. University students are the leading people within these protests while CHP has stayed passive about the whole thing. For now, protests are not violent but people are persistent. Meanwhile, the police have begun using pepper spray and plastic bullets aganist the protestors!

Turkey has not seen a series of political protests this large in the past 12 years, ever since the Gezi Park Protests which you might remember if you have seen it in the news.

Please show your support online and relay this message to any turkish people you might know in your country.

Know this - Erdoğan is a dictator, his regime is a regime of terror, and these protests are NOT UNLAWFUL.

WHATEVER MEDIA MAY TELL YOU, ESPECİALLY THE POPULAR TURKISH MEDIA SUCH AS A HABER AND THE LIKE ARE LYING BECAUSE THEY ARE OWNED BY ERDOGAN.

Listen to turkish voices! 19th of March is a civil coup!

Mustafa Kemal'in Askerleriyiz!

The mayor of Istanbul, Ekrem İmamoğlu, was unlawfully arrested yesterday, and is being detained by the Turkish government. İmamoğlu was set to be nominated on March 23rd, just a few days from now, to run for president by the CHP, Turkey's main opposition party.

TO MAKE THAT CLEARER: the Turkish government is unlawfully detaining their only real political opposition for the next election.

Here is what I have been told, by someone in my inbox who is from Turkey themselves:

Yesterday the government unlawfully arrested their only rival in the next election. People are trying to protest but the police are almost attacking the civilians. Especially the metros and other public transformation has been closed. And the schools are still open, the school busses were dropping the kids off half an hour late to school. The Turkish lira is dropping in value every second, I’m talking about this anonymously hoping that i won’t wake up with police next morning.

[EDIT] From the anon in my inbox again:

Also theres one thing i forgot to talk about but the internet is off. It's slowed down, tiktok youtube twitter and instagram won't open if you don't have vpn on. They do this on every single instance, the big earthquake, no internet. Which made people die because of it. People were sending their adresses saying they were under the rubble and any help was needed but they couldn't make their voice heard because of the internet being slowed down. (Also watpadd and roblox are still banned?? Lol???) (Kids are crying)

Context for the "big earthquake" line: Turkey suffered from a magnitude 4.5 earthquake just today (March 20th).

Thousands turn out to protest after Istanbul mayor detained

The detention of Istanbul Mayor Ekrem İmamoğlu on Wednesday morning resonated in Turkish society, provoking thousands of people to take to the streets of Turkey in protest.

Earlier, the opposition mayor was detained as part of a corruption case. In addition to him, arrest warrants were issued for more than 100 people, including civil servants, political activists, journalists and businessmen. Ozgur Özel, head of Turkey’s largest opposition People’s Republican Party, called it a coup attempt and urged supporters to take to the streets.

In parallel to the large-scale operation to detain İmamoğlu and other defendants in the case, the authorities imposed a ban on rallies and demonstrations in Istanbul from 19 to 23 March.

Some streets in the city were blocked, several metro lines suspended operations, and access to social media was restricted nationwide.

Immediately after the news of İmamoğlu’s detention, his supporters gathered on Vatan Street, where Istanbul’s main police department is located. Protesters chanted “Erdogan is a dictator.”

Istanbul University students also organised a protest against the cancellation of their diplomas and the detention of Mayor Ekrem İmamoğlu. After a while, the situation heated up, with police using pepper gas and rubber bullets against the protesters.

Meanwhile, the authorities are increasing security measures at administrative buildings, and additional police forces have been deployed to Istanbul City Hall.
