We pay taxes by taking bread and education away from our children.
The state broadcaster TRT broadcasts with these taxes... It has a budget of billions of liras.
It is called a state broadcaster, but as you know, it has turned into a partisan channel alongside the AKP.
*
TRT is a channel that only puts AKP members on screen, and makes room for AKP-sympathizing actors not just in news and discussion programs, but even in TV series...
TRT, which screws its broadcast content, from TV series scripts to cartoons, to the Palace...
I know that these criticisms of ours carry them even 'higher' in the eyes of the government.
Just like RTÜK... The more undemocratic and oppressive the RTÜK members are, and the more they drown opposition channels in fines, the more 'valuable' they become!
They have decayed yet another one of the state's most valuable institutions...
*
Yesterday evening, the TRT management signed off on a decision that holds a mirror to themselves, what they are, and where they stand.
TRT has decided not to broadcast celebrations, concerts, etc., on October 29, when our Republic will enter its 100th year!
The justification is the humanitarian tragedy in Gaza...
Any person of average intelligence will understand that the reason for this ban imposed by TRT has nothing to do with the massacre in Gaza.
The issue is nothing more than the rush to curry favor with a government that is settling scores with the Republic and has problems with Atatürk's Turkey...
*
Since the day it came to power, the AKP has entered into an open reckoning against the Secular Republic and Atatürk's revolutions.
It has taken the steps of the new regime—that is, the counter-revolution, the one-man system that is becoming religious, authoritarian, and has suspended democracy and the TBMM—while looking everyone straight in the eye...
Whoever fights against Atatürk, the Republic, and secularism has been taken under the protective wings of the government and their path has been cleared.
If they are a bureaucrat, they have risen; if they are a religious order, they have been flooded with money through tenders; if they are a politician, they have been put in the display window; if they are a journalist, they have been taken onto the flying Palace...
*
There was an irresistible reward for being hostile to Republican values!
* Sycophancy to the AKP,
* Being a Palace jester,
* Pseudo-nationalism, pseudo-piety (religious exploitation, religious profiteering),
* And reactionism,
have become the 'rising trend' in the country for the last 20 years!
Even tabloid figures are praising the Palace in daytime programs! From business people to pseudo-artists, from bureaucrats to footballers, they are writing the book of sycophancy...
*
TRT is going to black out its screen against celebrations on October 29, on that very day when the biggest celebrations are expected, especially on the 100th anniversary of our Republic!
That is how the darkness of the counter-revolution is...
It silently seeps into the veins of society... Imams become instructors in schools... Over time, they take the place of teachers...
Religious orders infiltrate classrooms...
While children go to school hungry and the Ministry of National Education cannot feed them, it busies itself with the need for places of worship for primary school and preschool toddlers!
A surreal process takes society captive...
The bigger the lie you tell, the more believable it becomes!
