Turkey no longer makes pretense of democracy or freedom of expression(speech).

Any criticism of the AKP Party or Erdogan is considered a crime, punishable by indefinite detention/arrest without a trial. Merely an accusation by an AKP official or Erdogan the Islamist is enough. There is no rule of law in Turkey, only rule by edict of the dictator.

This is why we are not a democracy, the founders recognized it doesn’t work. Republican style government works best.
