Coup in Turkey

[derpcake]

Looks like Erdogan going down.

Lets all hope so.

How will this affect their Bid for EU admission?

The same government that distanced itself from the actions of its military generals on a monthly basis?

They had some serious weird cognitive dissonance and disassociation between various branches of government for a long time now with really dissociative language being used by the president. Every time I read a press release I'd think to myself damn this country sounds fucked up, how does a "commander-in-chief" use such dissociative language when talking about his own government.

I don't think this comes as a surprise.

A military coup involves armed forces?

Who could have thought.

IIRC Erdogan has been making huge amounts of money dealing with ISIS. He's also famous for prosecuting a german comedian for making fun of him (and of course Merkel bent over and took it, metaphorically).

So yeah, let's hope he's out.
