WHY ?
Greetings, as a Turk, I am curious about the thoughts of Greeks regarding Turks. I am an immigrant from Mytilene, someone who was a Muslim in his childhood but chose Christianity when he grew up (may God protect us all), and who has an interest in Greek mythology. Now that I have finished introducing myself, I can start asking the questions on my mind :d
Why are the citizens of these two countries so hostile towards each other, especially on social media? I don't know your situation, but the rate of Islam among young Turks in particular has decreased significantly, down to almost 30-40% (Greeks think all Turks are Muslim), yet the religious fight still goes on. Dude, most of us are not Muslim anymore.
While both countries are fighting against youth unemployment and inflation, our main topic is still our hostility towards each other (both sides are trying to go to Germany :D). Personally, I think Greece is one of the most beautiful countries in the world; I don't know if I think this way because I live in a similar climate, but I see it as a corner of heaven.
Thank you for reading 🤩
