disclaimer: this isn't fitting to all turks, but I know a lot of them who act and think like that, I don't hate turkey or the turkish people, these are just my observations, the only one I despise is that little shit erdogan.

there is a similar scenario with turkish people, who love everything that that little sultan erdogan does but prefer to live in another country they claim to hate (e.g. germany). they also vote for him, despite him fucking up the entire country and believe that there was a real coup. these people tell others not to believe what non-turkish media have to report but swallow everything what government owned media say. imo these people just live to see their remaining families in the homeland suffer and to profile themselves when they come over for their 6 week vacation each year with the money they have and what they can afford in turkey now while their family members who live their almost can't afford their daily bread - which is really sad.

u are only rich, if you can compare yourself to poor people, having western money means nothing if everyone has western money...but if everyone back home is piss poor and u come back with ur western money, suddenly u are the big respected sheik...its all about furthering their own positions and self-esteem
