On the left, an ignorant, vainglorious old man, saying the young don’t work.
On the right, a young healthcare worker saying he has no money, no hope, and could be hit by a car on his way home from a 24 hour shift and he wouldn’t care anymore.
New Turkey.

If you watch this video and don’t get a lump in your throat for the kid and raging anger at the sheer inhumanity of the old man, I question your ethics and your ability to drink from the milk of human kindness.
This, right here, is Turkey’s challenge. It is generational.

The problem is there are millions of both that old man and that beautiful little kid.
The forces of unwarranted and inhuman arrogance waged against hopeless yet bright youth is the battle for Turkey’s future.
How it ends is really up to up all of us but it’s not going well.

Even if you don’t speak Turkish, watch the video with the sound off and read the body language.
That will be enough for you to understand how this new generation is being ignored and belittled by incumbent power.
That old man represents an aged elite of entitled ignorance.
