German TV-Show makes satirical song about Turkish president, complaint backfires
 
Satirical show #extra3 made this little gem about the Turkish president who is cracking down hard on freedom of press and political opposition / demonstrations / kurdish population:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R2e2yHjc_mc

This thing went big after Mr. Erdoğan called in the German ambassador to demand that the originating TV station pulls this video, which criticizes (prominently, among other things) his crackdown on the freedom of press. Someone didn't know the #streisandeffect

Mainstream media coverage is exploding, please enjoy... :)

Hate Turkey. Just don't like their politics and culture at all.

Very rude people too like a lot of Middle Eastern countries. Bad corrupt attitudes all around.

Na, Turkish people & culture is as average as everywhere in the world. There's great people, there's assholes, and everything in between. I personally love Turkey, which is a good reason to despise the president.

The EU is buttering them up to keep all the human scum out of western Europe...for anyone who is bad at geography, Turkey neighbours Syria.

So basically, "build a wall (physical or via paperwork) and we'll let you in"..

A muslim EU country is not a good sign at all.

Not sure how buttering up Turkey will help to keep you out of Europe.

In case you missed it: This is not the rants forum. Take your hate elsewhere.

Turkey tastes like shit. Not even a top notch brine or half a day in a smoker can fix it.

Not ranting, I'm stating a few facts. Take your hate for my facts elsewhere.
