If only people hadn't voted the guy back in last time. I'm not blaming the students, most of them most likely didn't. Quite a few of the Turks living in Germany seemed to think it a good idea to have a "strong fist" back home. Happy now?

Exiles and expats love strong powers. I wouldn't be surprised if that's the case in France.

I'm sure this isn't limited to Germany. It makes some sort of bizarre sense because they enjoy relative freedom and aren't quite as directly affected. Well, having a migrant background these days is no fun. Still, it annoys me like heck. It's not fair on those folks back home. Okay, what is fair...

Let me save y'all some time.

Copy paste "opposition leader" and "date" (2025 for 2016) and here is the outcome.
