So could this actually have been a false coup to gain more power or is that still pretty still?
|
# ? Jul 16, 2016 03:58 |
I don't think it's a fake coup but Erdogan might have known of a poorly planned corporals coup and let it go forward. That said, this isn't over yet.

So how does a coup "fail"? Is it just because they haven't killed him yet?

When you fail to gain more legitimacy either through popular recognition or force or arms than the government you're overthrowing. When you hang it all out there and no one backs your play, it's either the firing squad, suicide, or going down fighting the rest of the army.

ASAPI posted:Wasn't today going to be the "Day of Rage" for the #BLM camp? Did they just give up, or no one cares since we might be watching WW3 start? as best I can tell "day of rage" was something that was solely fabricated by a couple of teenagers claiming to belong to Anonymous and then amplified in the infinite echo chamber of local news plus law enforcement bulletins. I think I saw at least 5 different "FWD: FWD: RE: FWD: ***HOT*** MUST READ" emails at work today from different entities cautioning military personnel about being anywhere near the alleged protests, which is a pretty good sign it was all complete BS. also I'm not gonna say I called it but iyaayas01 posted:Erdogan will consolidate power behind a civilian Islamic movement, the "coup plotters" (anyone deemed too pro-secular by the AKP) will be "dealt with," whatever shadow of freedom of the press/assembly/etc still remained in Turkey will die under "emergency" powers, and the Kurds will get hosed even harder. I mean I guess hopefully that last bit doesn't happen but lol it's totally going to happen, he's opening the floodgates after this
