Okay, seems like all the SNS and messaging apps are blocked in #Turkey one more time. Let's see if the government is aware of Bluesky.

My thesis defense was accepted, and I'm now officially done with my PhD 🎓 I defended remotely, so my graduation is from Uludağ University, but the photo is from Istanbul University. #PhDone

Such a shame elon musk came claiming to defend free speech, but X is now a useful tool for autocrats. Blocking İmamoğlu’s account in Turkey shows complicity with the enemies of democracy and freedom

watching how these leaders cozy up to each other just proves again that calling things “european values” or “western values” is just wrong. democracy, human rights, freedom. these are progressive values. and people have been fighting for them everywhere, for a long time.

A fair society is a right not only for humans but also for non-human persons. Whether we respect their right depends on our daily habits. Let’s go #vegan by including the fight against #speciesism in our struggle against injustice, oppression, and violence. Happy #MayDay!

İstanbul, earthquake.

Apparently, it is now illegal to say #FreePalestine in #Istanbul.

On our way to join the pro-Palestine walk organized by the opposition party CHP. Subway lines to İstiklal Street are cancelled as an attempt to block participation, and the walk has been officially banned. We’ll see how the evening unfolds.

Looks like #Bluesky is now blocking accounts in #Turkey, reportedly following government demands. Many opposition voices had moved here after leaving X. This was the platform’s first real test, and it failed. Disappointing. t24.com.tr/haber/bluesk...

My impression of Britain is that it's a mix of TERFs, radical Islamists, old Brexit folks—and one lonely Ken Loach.

Bir Çarşamba daha 0 lira harcanarak tamamlandı.

Gerçekten çok anlamlıymış, Cebeci'de boykot yapan öğrencilere soda şişesi atan provakatörler de bu sloganı atıyordu mesela. Video: youtu.be/Ym8P77-rSXI?...

I am sick of this AJ+ coded news reports on Turkey.

Cümle sonuna eklenen küfür kısaltmalarını sonsuza kadar sessize alınan kelimelere ekleyerek bu gönderilerin etkileşimini azaltabiliriz.

Gayet makul. Boykotlar marka odaklı olduğu ve sınırlı, kitlesel olarak uygulanabilir olduğu müddetçe etkili olur. Etkiden kastım da, basını kontrol edenler başta olmak üzere şirketler üzerinde iktidarın zor yoluyla kurduğu baskıya karşı ekonomik bir baskı ile cevap vermek.

Beğeni atanları listeye ekledim, eklenmek isteyenler yoruma 🌱 bırakabilir ya da DM. go.bsky.app/PN34gmV

Daha önce X'te hesabı kapatılanlar listesi repostlamıştım, kaldırdım. Listede distaste de varmış ve fark etmeden topluca takip edip onu da takibe almış olabilirsiniz. Takip etmeye değecek bir hesap değil, katliam yasası destekçisi, sağcı ve iktidar aparatı. Bloklama tavsiyesidir.

Trump da ekonomistmiş.

Bluesky, Google Play'de sosyal uygulamalarda üçüncü sıraya kadar yükselmiş durumda.

Tüketim alışkanlıkları üzerine düşünüp politik sebeplerle alışkanlıklarımızı değiştirdiğimiz bu günlerde, hayvansal ürün tüketimi üzerine de düşünmeye davet eden bir yazı:

Ayarlar -> gizlilik kısmından bu ayarı açarsanız, herhangi bir hesabı olmayan kişiler gönderilerinize erişim sağlayamaz. Buranın Twitter’dan güvenli olduğu su götürmez, ancak ek güvenlik önlemleri almanın bir zararı yok. İçeri girmeye cesareti olmayan troller, dışarıdan da bizi izlemesin:) YAYALIM.

Buradaki güzel özelliklerden biri Başlangıç Paketleri. Profilinizde Gönderiler, Beğeniler vs olan kısmı kaydırınca göreceksiniz. Orada belli temalarla hesap listeleri oluşturulabiliyor ve böylece yeni gelenler topluca bu listedeki herkesi takip edebiliyor.

YouTube'ta @uzayzuhal.bsky.social'ın kanalını bir zamandır ilgiyle takip ediyorum. Kanala konuk olan ve bu vesileyle takip edip video makalelerini izlediğim @aylakdamla.bsky.social ve @unutmanehri.bsky.social de burada. Gündeme ve popüler kültüre dair eleştirel okumalar için ziyaret edebilirsiniz.

Right now, walking into a public canteen means being served flesh, milk, and eggs by default - unless you speak up and request otherwise. That system doesn’t feel political because it's the norm. But it is. medium.com/@herbivor...

Day 11 of the #Turkey protests. Tens of thousands of people in #İstanbul gather for the Freedom Rally organised by the opposition.

The main slogan of the protests in #Turkey speaks to the whole world today: 'No liberation alone— all of us or none of us.' We either stand together to reclaim democracy or let oligarchs and autocrats take it all.

Now Instagram is closing opposition accounts in Turkey, just as X formerly known as Twitter. Elon Musk and Mark Zuckerberg proved themselves to be real bootlickers.

The prosecutor has requested İmamoğlu’s arrest.

Day four of the protests 🟥 Raids and detentions targeting students occurred at dawn. ⚖️ This evening, Mayor İmamoğlu is appearing before the prosecutor. 🗳️ The presidential candidacy primary is scheduled for tomorrow morning.

Okay, we need a Turkey Protests starter kit here to welcome people

The use of tear gas by authorities during protests affects not only people but also stray animals. In this post, we share tips on how to help animals affected by tear gas. If you have suggestions or experiences to share, please leave a comment. Let’s not leave anyone behind 👇🥟🐕

Elon Musk's social media platform X has suspended several accounts belonging to opposition figures in Turkey amid widespread civil unrest in the country.

X is *not* a reliable source of information, and Musk said many times that he cooperates with local governments to curb any activity that is illegal for those governments. www.forbes.com/sites/kather...

Third day of the protests in #Turkey and guess what, #Elon is blocking access to opposition accounts on X. X is still the most popular platform in Turkey.

Well, he already does in many ways.

Another day of coup, another day citizens of #Turkey downloading VPNs.

We woke up to a terrible day in #Istanbul. The governor and president candidate İmamoglu and many other municipality workers are taken into custody, main roads and city centers are closed and internet access to main platforms including YouTube is blocked.

Every time you say, 'I don't wanna sound woke, but...' a right-wing pundit earns a bonus. Sorry, I don’t make the rules.

The popular YouTuber take on streaming platforms is, 'Oh, but you don't own the media like you do with physical copies.' Sure, but why would I want to own some Netflix show? You could say the same thing about the movie theater experience, and no one seems to have an issue with that.

Reading the holiday posts after the my morning lecture. #happyholidays #istanbul

It's absurd that uni students have to deal with these fragile Islamist conservatives who get triggered by something as harmless as a New Year's tree on campus.🎄 They are trying to impose their narrow-minded views on everyone else and getting supported by the assigned university administration.

I've been following journalist @nevsinmengu.bsky.social's coverage from #Aleppo on her YouTube channel. The joy and excitement of the Syrian people are deeply moving—far more powerful than cold geopolitical analysis.

Heathers under the subway seats, a terrible idea. They get way too hot when you sit down. Very uncomfortable. #marmaray

It is outrageous that students accepted into the #Erasmus student exchange program, an EU initiative promoting education and cultural exchange, are being denied student visas by the Consulate of Italy in Turkey. #academicsky schengen.news/turkish-stud...
