Can’t tell me that Islam ain’t the most Civic nationalism ideology to ever exist 🤷🏻♂️
HOI4 is currently being review-bombed by Turkish Steam users. Why?
In the HOI4 Discord (I know), a player was banned for having a Kemal Ataturk profile picture with the reason that it somehow glorified the Armenian Genocide and is in-line with similar rules against having a pfp of Hitler or Stalin who are also in the game.
Other Turkish players changed their pfp's to Ataturk in solidarity with the original player and were also subsequenntly b&.
They're now currently review-bombing the HOI4 store page and venting on the community forums for the game.

Atatürk was of Yörük descent, and blonde hair and blue eyes are common among the Yörüks; I would appreciate it if you could explain to me how a Yörük family living in Mersin came to be mixed with Slavs.
