MODERATORS
The US prefers to be called "America" yet I still don't call them by that name either.
I don't need to abide by what some fascist Turk says you should call their country or not.
Maybe once Turkey stops trying to wipe out the Kurds I'll respect what far-right Turkish nationalists want that country to be called.
Lol - That's just deviating from the entire context of the discussion, but ok.
