Southern LeftistI'm sorry for the Turks who have to bear another term of Erdogan. I'm still confused on the details of it, but mystics and conservativism keeping Turkey in a shitty state. As one Redditor said:
"Religion is the opium of the people."

Garibaldi’s Homeopathic Bike@south_lib @SrRochardBunson In the mid-19th century, Karl Marx wrote that religion is “the opiate of the masses” – disconnecting disadvantaged people from the here and now, and dulling their engagement in progressive politics.
@peemee @SrRochardBunson Yes, and the GOP Stalinists are trying to establish a despotism under the name of communism.
Good golly I hate it when Stalin makes us look bad.
This is why I'm a democratic socialist, not the so-called "leftists" that the Soviets were.
