10 Things we learnt from this Dutch Turkish Craziness
March 12, 2017
So what a night for Dutch Turkish troubles! Remember when they dragged off that Turkish minister? Or when 2000 Turkish people cried that they wanted more freedom of speech to defend their big ol’ dictator? Let’s have a look at what we learnt yesterday from the whole situation in Rotterdam:
1. Aboutaleb is a grand mayor. The Dutch-Moroccan man handled explosive matters calmly, afterwards he gave a composed press conference. Truly this man has developed into a gem for Rotterdam and multiculturalism.

This is what #Rotterdam (the city whose people #Erdogan describes as nazis and fascists) looked like after the actual nazis paid a visit
2. Feel free to hate the Erdogan-fans, but don’t be a racist to Turkish people. There were like 2000 people demonstrating for Erdogan yesterday, and they’re truly a fifth column in the Netherlands – but there were 100 times more Turkish Dutch people easily sitting at home or tweeting against the stupid Erdogan fans. Also 50% of the Turks in the Netherlands don’t vote for Erdogan. So stop all the ‘Turks are stupid’ or ‘Erdogan and his fans love goats’ – that’s not the way to call them out (their human rights abuses are though, even better)

I like number 2, when we see these problems, it doesn't mean all Dutch people are racist.
