I recently saw someone creating a bingo chart for 2025 so I decided to create one for 2026 (image of this post). What are your predictions for 2026?

    The breaking point is his health. The moment he’s gone, his party and family will dissolve, and since they behave like feudal lords, they wont back from putting the county in a bloody conflict for their gains.

    Kurdistan is secure under Erdoğan and AKP. They’ll give the Dicle and Fırat rivers, the main water sources of Turkey.
    Inflation is no problem for him, they’re handling it using working class’ money.
    Turkey is a major trading partner of Israel, don’t believe the government rhetoric about Palestine. We sell drones to Ukraine since the beginning of the conflict, Russia started to attack the Turkish trading ship on Black Sea after many ultimatums about the drone trade. NATO don’t give a rat’s ass about it as long as Turkey isn’t directly invaded.

      Thanks so much for this info, I did not know he was in poor health.

      Are you saying you think the nation will keep moving Westwards, even after he is gone?

        By “Westward” do you mean keep sucking to the imperial core?

        Turkey is a semi-peripheral comprador country since WWII, any attempt to get out of this was suppressed in a bloody coup. Even if I’ll be wrong (please let me), and the AKP and Erdoğan dynasty gets overthrown, the next government will be a comprador conservative one, instead of current comprador reactionary one we have.
