The problem is Erdogan, in around 2006 1 lira was close to a dollarAs the video pointed out, the city/town in question is held by Kemalist party.
Areas that are pro-Erdogan are generally pro-immigrant laakin the Kemalists are out for blood. Most of the violence you are seeing is done by them.
This is not even a new issue, the Kemalists have been anti-Arab since the 1920s.
The problem is Erdogan, in around 2006 1 lira was close to a dollar. Now it's over 10 and was closing onto 20 just a month back.
People who were saving up just lost all the value of their saving.
for the ataturkists anti arab is a cover for anti islam + copying westerners.That has nothing to do with the anti-Arab sentiment held by Kemalists since the 1920s.
Don’t shift the goalpost.

They’re atheist sxb! Those bums think they will be accepted by europeans that used to call them ”the sick man of europe”.No its not. They are hostile towards non Muslims migrants as well such as the Christian Nigerians. Almost all of them are practising Muslims. How can you be a practising Muslim and hate Islam?
Looooooool! If they want to be accepted by Europe then go Orthodox and return to speaking Greek. Make no mistake, this "Asia Minor" bullshit is just that; bullshit. The only reason they don't accept Turkey is its Islamic and Turkic heritage. Cyprus is just off the coast of the Levant with a population more genetically MENA than most Turks but because they're Greek speaking and Christian, at least in the south, they let them into the EU, rofl.They’re atheist sxb! Those bums think they will be accepted by europeans that used to call them ”the sick man of europe”.

Your understanding of Turkish politics is very flawed when you call Kemalists “practicing Muslims”.
Not flawed at all. 1/3 of them voted for that party last year. Are you calling 1/3 of Turkey's people atheists? That is not backed up by their religious demographics that shows over 95% are Muslim. I knew a Turkish guy named Emre and he and his family loved Ataturk but they were also fasting during Ramadan and prayed. How do you explain that?
Not all people that vote for that party are Kemalists. The party is Kemalist and it’s diehard supporters are but not every single voter is.
You can admire Kemal without being a Kemalist. He built a nation from scratch and left a nation of greatness but he had numerous shortcomings.
Kemalists are the blind supporters of Kemal that cannot separate the good from bad and inherently agree with his major point that Islam is “uncivilised”.
Ataturk definitely didn’t like Islam.Most die hard Kemalists are Muslims. They are left wing racists who hate foreigners. Big whoop. Interesting that you suggest Erdogan's supporters not being racist and you seem to be a Erdogan fanboy. He's destroying his country and the foundations Ataturk built.
Ataturk was a Muslim. There is much evidence for that. He just didn't believe it should be used for political means. Comments made by his family and foreign diplomats and his speeches are a few confirmations of his religious beliefs.
Wallahi you’re right
