AI-generated summary
While Berhan Şimşek evaluates the debates on social violence and politics, he addresses agenda issues such as Melih Gökçek's long political presence and New Party-CHP cooperation.
CAN BE PROMOTION BE AN EXCUSE FOR VIOLENCE?
Some people interpret the footage as "But the woman he was arguing with throws a plate at him."
That's right, he throws it.
That's right, that's violence.
But should we resort to violence in the face of such violence?
Murders of women are committed in this country by saying "But he provoked me".
Can “being provoked” be an excuse for violence?
I would have expected Berhan Şimşek to give a warning, saying "come to your senses, calm down" and leave the scene.
After all, this is how a man who reads poetry behaves.
HE WILL DEFINITELY ENTER THE LIST OF THE MOST DURABLE POLITICIANS
Melih Gökçek has been a name on Turkey's agenda for a very long time.
- In the middle of constant polemics, fights and debates.
- He loves to make a mess and gets by with it.
-It is clear that he has accumulated many enemies, many opponents, and many dislikes.
I watched the statement he made to the media after his statement at the prosecutor's office.
There is no decrease in the energy of 35 years ago.
Can't one feel just a little bit of "That's enough, I'm tired"? If it were me, I would get carried away, but never Melih Gökçek.
If a list of "the most durable politicians" was made... He would definitely be in the top 5.
ATTENTION-CATCHING FLIRT
An interesting flirtation took place in Üsküdar:
CHP's flirtation with the New Party.
*
These two parties, who argue very harshly over "Traitor Kemal" and "Purification", make even shaking hands an issue, and can never tolerate each other...
For the first time, he initiated full cooperation in the election for Üsküdar Mayor.
*
They made joint statements, showed solidarity with each other, and adopted the same strategy.
*
Will a deepening friendship emerge from this?
Or will the fight continue where it left off?
Barış Yarkadaş, could you please analyze it?
JUMPING LOSPIC
While Melih Gökçek wanted to say, "Many accusations were made against me. I gave many statements. I was harassed at every stage. I emerged clean from all of them"...
He used the saying, “The grasshopper jumps once, jumps twice.”
*
An expression used incorrectly in the wrong context is “grasshopper”.
Moreover, it is also very open to mavra.
*
If you have many enemies and many opponents...
You will pay attention to every word that comes out of your mouth and every idiom you use.
*
See here:
What happened after all?
All his opponents started to talk about Gökçek using the term "grasshopper".
THIS DOESN'T WORK
There is a global brand that has made an effective debut in the vacuum cleaner field.
This brand has now entered the toothbrush business.
He brought out a toothbrush with a camera and a spray gun, in short, a very fancy toothbrush.
*
I reviewed this toothbrush.
The conclusion I have reached is this: This does not work.
*
They can't even come close to the success they had with the broom incident.
Because the broom met a real need. However, the camera toothbrush is not like that.
It's a very forced invention. There will definitely be people who show interest, but mass interest is very difficult.
Doesn't he look like ÜMİT KOCASAKAL?
It turns out that the urban legend that Robert De Niro participated in a police raid in Istanbul in the 1990s was true.
*
When you look at the photo of Robert De Niro wearing a hat, taken at the time of the incident in the 1990s...
“He looks so much like Ümit Kocasakal,” I said.
*
Because of this analogy, I think Ümit Hodja will order a coffee.
RECOMMENDATIONS FOR TRADESMEN IN THE TIKTOK ERA
- Never get into an argument with a customer who has started a live broadcast in your store.
*
- Remember that the principle of "The customer is always right" also applies to live broadcasters.
*
- Never forget that a mistake you make to a customer who has opened a live broadcast will have repercussions throughout Turkey.
*
