      May your civil-rights side win, but…

      Erdogan did an aweful lot of machiavellian siding-with-Putin-siding-against-Putin, re Ukraine, and if he’s capable of doing that machiavellian stuff, between those sides, he’s likely more dangerous than people give him credit for…

      Further, if he’s got the help or backing of the Putin+Trump tag-team, or the new Global Fascist Alliance, then … that too would be fatal to many citizens, in the future, probably…

      I’m remembering a discovery when Germany reunited…

      Please be careful: our world is going to hell on a sled, now, & the speed is picking-up…

      Please be careful, & all success I wish the civil-rights loyal people of Turkey, & all countries, … these are going to be difficult decades, until our world sorts itself out, & human-nature is force-transformed into honestly-grown-up nature…
