We don’t…

Within 24 hours the president of my country of residence and the parliament of my country of birth designated “Antifa” a terrorist organization. Neither has the actual authority to do so. But far-right politics has always been more about intimidation than legality.

The far-right majority in the Dutch parliament (BBB-FvD-JA21-PVV-SGP-VVD) has just designated “Antifa” a terrorist organization.

This is a dark day for Dutch democracy and the final nail in the coffin of the VVD as a serious liberal democratic party.

Siyasi partiler kimsenin "baba evi" değildir. Parti başkanları babalarımız değillerdir. Ö.Ö. dediğinde bunu hatırlatıp sinir bozmak istemedim, vaziyet dumanlıydı ama. G.T.'nin akrabalarından oluşan listeyi görünce tutamadım artık kendimi. Kurtulun şu dilden! Babalık müessesesi habistir.

İslamcıların, genelde sağcıların herhangi bir zamanda herkes için demokrasi talebi olmuş da, şimdi ikiyüzlülük yapıyorlarmış gibi yazmasın artık kimse. Olmadı öyle bir şey, hem de hiçbir zaman. Ayrıca ikiyüzlülüğü siyasi beceri kabul ediyorlar. Yani bu yaptığınız bir eleştiri değil, övgü aslında.

Okay, seems like all the SNS and messaging apps are blocked in #Turkey one more time. Let's see if the government is aware of Bluesky.

We cannot allow this to stand anymore! We have prepared a petition calling for a boycott of the next ISPP 2026 conference in Newcastle, UK, unless the Executive Committee resigns or responds to our concerns. Please read and sign the petition here: docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F...

Meanwhile in Turkey, competitive authoritarianism is slowly but surely shedding its "competitive" aspect and moving toward full "authoritarianism."

This morning, opposition circles in Turkey are discussing the possibility of the Turkish courts preventively removing the CHP leadership before the hearing on 15 September (allegations of fraud on the 38th Congress), in order to avoid counter-measures by the party.
