A Flawless Fifth Column Work

One week after the local elections in Turkey, which resulted in the victory of the opposition...

• With the strange negligence of the judiciary and the provocation of the separatist party, terrorist organization sympathizers took to the streets in many provinces.

• The so-called Gaza sensitivity brought together the marginal right, the marginal left and some Islamist groups. A social media-supported provocation was staged against the government using the lie of "trade with Israel".

• FETO's fugitive scribes attempted to assassinate the reputation of many well-known AK Party members, especially the Minister of Environment and Urbanization Mehmet Özhaseki, who coordinated the work in the earthquake zone, with fake documents.

• In Sancaktepe, where the municipality changed hands, the lie that former mayor Şeyma Döğücü had a jacuzzi in her office was refuted within 2 hours, but became the most talked about topic on the country's agenda. (An effort to create a perception of corruption and waste)

• Youth and fan groups were once again separated and manipulated through football in a way that strengthened the perception that "there is no justice in the country."

• There is no need to further ado... Immediately after the election, Turkey came under the influence of a flawless "Fifth Column" activity, the preparations for which had been completed in advance.

• They circulate a new perception and lie every day to pit society against each other with social media lies and fake agendas.

• They want to make the state, which could not be captured through actual intervention (the July 15, 2016 treason), suitable for intervention through propaganda, espionage, sabotage, terrorism and manipulations. One of their most important goals is to prevent the Turkish Armed Forces' operation in Northern Iraq.

• There can be no other explanation for the fact that political movements and groups, which are not at all similar to each other and whose coming together is contrary to the normal flow of life and politics, put their burden on the government with a complete alliance immediately after the election...

Someone is pressing all the buttons at the same time.

Resist Türkiye...

31 March 2024 Local Elections Analysis

• AK Party lost approximately 8 million votes compared to the 2019 local elections...

• CHP won 1 million votes.

• This means that millions of AK Party voters did not go to the polls even after their votes for other parties were counted.

• The reaction of retirees, minimum wage earners and low-income earners, who are most affected by the problems in the economy, at the ballot box and their support despite everything should be read correctly by centre-right politics. The cliché that this nation will not vote for CHP is no longer valid. He showed that he could give.

• The opposition knows that the results of the ballot box are reaction votes rather than its own success, and if it acts accordingly and carries out successful municipal management, it will become assertive in general politics. If he cannot do this, it is inevitable that he will face a result similar to 1994.

• Despite everything, the most effective and powerful actor in Turkish politics is still President Erdoğan... He is the only political figure who can receive meaningful votes from all constituencies. Erdogan, who increased the vote of his party, which fell to 38% in the 2009 local elections, to 47% in 2011, can achieve this again.

The Effects of Populism on Politicians, Political Parties, Institutions and Voters

Populism has various effects on politicians, political parties, institutions and voters. However, these effects may vary in different countries and political contexts. This study aims to make a general assessment of the effects of populism on these actors and segments. Populism, which creates a bond between leaders and voters with its rhetoric and performances, is an ideology that has been on the rise recently. While populism provides politicians with short-term political gains, it also causes long-term policy problems. Populist parties cause traditional political parties to be affected by election results. If populism rises, traditional parties can sometimes lose voter support. Some traditional parties may adopt populist themes or turn to harsher policies in response to populism. Populism creates negative effects on democratic institutions and political balance. Populist leaders often tend to weaken institutions and seek to increase their own authority. Judicial independence, media freedom and other democratic institutions may be vulnerable to the effects of populism. The effects of populism on voters are also complex. Populist discourses not only create an emotional appeal among some voters, but also gain support because they express social problems. While some support populism, others oppose such policies.
