Welcome

We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!

The Rules

Posts must be:

Links to news stories from...
...credible sources, with...
...their original headlines, that...
...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

And that’s basically it!

In fairness, given that this is a small unserious community with the objective of making fun of things, I didn't expect this much of a response, that was a bit odd, but neither did I expect an inflamed comment like yours. Chill out, dude, you can post too about other things, you know. Why get so egregiously offended?

And if there is indeed a campaign by Israel to denigrate Erdogan...this post would just be an infinitesimal proportion of it. Just go on reddit and find lots more in more serious communities and discussions of Erdogan, it's all there... 🙃 and you can find the same making fun of Xi, putin, Biden, Trump, Orban, Zelensky, Modi and lots of other sacred cows.

In fairness, this is Not The unserious community 😀

I was laughing at that notion. Erdogan only started to get loud (only verbals, no actions) against Israel after losing some local elections due to Turkey providing materialistic (actual actions) support for Israel, mainly through one of the ports in the Mediterranean. Israel is happy to play along of course since they are used to this (it happened before). The same goes for some "Arab" states (all British-made client feudalisms) who provide support through land (The gulf => Jordan => Israel) to break the partial blockage in the Red Sea.

Erdogan is perfectly capable of denigrating himselfеlf, he's a grown boy who says stupid things all the time, like saying he's going to invade Israel. I have to admit I'd like to see the bastard try now :D
