How unfortunate. The coup just ends up making Erdogan more powerful.
There's nothing that says that a fake can't beat the real thing.

You must not imagine that for beings like you and us there can be laughter. The low men laugh, and we envy them. But for us, the higher ones, there is no laughter, only an unending vigil, purely serious, stretching on into the night.

That's one way of resolving matters. But it might stir up unrest, cause instability and other negative long-term consequences.

Nope

Erdogan is a dictator but he keeps things stable. Look how quicklt the coup was overturned under his rule. If he had a fatal heart attack 5 minutes into the coup they would still be slaughtering each other today

Uh no, not really

'sides, if Turkey is unstable then killing the guy giving it order and structure can hardly make things better

The guy "giving it order" who the coup was literally against

Let's face it, if a country is in such a bad state that a military coup is needed, it is
not
a stable country.
there's a difference between stable and bad...

Honest question - when has assassinating a world leader changed things for the better?
I honestly can't think of any off the top of my head, but Erdogan still needs to fucking die.
This will just lead to more hatred and anger. Let's calm down and discuss a reasonable solution to the problem rather than one motivated by hate.

No, it's beneficial for us to discuss the correct solution because it improves our critical thinking skills and allows us to compare the actual actions made to our proposed solution and thus judge the competence of the government. It is also very fun.

Your post seems to imply that you find my posts idiotic - can you explain why?

I never called the current situation fun. Please re-read what I said. This has nothing to do with morality and obedience.
