Neil Gaiman cares about the crisis in Turkey
Sandman and Books of Magic writer Gaiman may be a leftist, but amazingly, he cares about the people whom Turkey's totalitarian premier, Tayyip Erdogan, has been working to suppress, which has led to revolts and riots. Gaiman said:
He even retweeted some messages by other people protesting the Turkish autocracy who asked him to. That's definitely impressive that Gaiman recognizes the Erdogan dictatorship as one of the most dangerous in the modern world. I guess the only query now is whether Gaiman understands how Islamofascism is what motivates Erdogan and his gang.
Sending love and good wishes to @evrebasak and all my friends in Turkey at this dangerous time.
