Why It Matters
TMMOB published a statement against this process, stating that the operation called 'My Family is Safe' targets LGBTI+ individuals and rights organizations.
The Union of Chambers of Turkish Engineers and Architects (TMMOB) also made a statement regarding the operations launched yesterday under the name "My Family is Safe" and targeting human rights organizations, especially LGBT+ people.
In the statement made on TMMOB's social media account, the following was noted:
"Targeting LGBTI+ people and rights organizations through the operation called 'My Family is Safe' deepens discrimination, hate speech and social polarization. We do not accept the suppression of fundamental rights and freedoms, especially freedom of association and expression, the detention of rights defenders and access barriers to websites and social media accounts.
The democratic future of our country is possible by securing fundamental rights and freedoms, equal citizenship and the right to organize for everyone. No one can be subjected to discrimination and oppression because of their identity, lifestyle or struggle for rights. "The political power should immediately abandon discriminatory and targeting policies, those who were unlawfully detained and arrested should be released, and access barriers to websites and social media accounts should be removed."
