In a statement on her social media account, Alçı said, "The country is spiraling out of control; I am very worried and unhappy." However, this post drew intense backlash due to her controversial remarks in the past.
Atatürkist Thought Association (ADD) Chairman Hüsnü Bozkurt responded to Alçı with harsh words. Bozkurt stated, "You didn't spare much effort in bringing us to these days; now go and pose for a 'maarif takvimi' (educational calendar)."
The post that Bozkurt recalled referred to a tweet Alçı made years ago, which drew massive backlash from all segments of society.
In that post, Alçı had said, "The wives and girlfriends of our soldiers should also pose for a 'maarif takvimi' for the veterans in the Southeast."
As debates on democracy and law have returned to the agenda with the appointment of the trustee, Alçı's statements and Bozkurt's reaction have become one of the most discussed topics of the day on social media.
