Is it true that Dara (this years ESC contestant) has gotten lots of hate in Bulgaria?
Already obsessed with BANGARANGA but I read somewhere that she’s disliked in Bulgaria so I wanted to know
EDIT: OMG I’M SO HAPPY
YOU GUYS WON CONGRATS NEIGHBORS!!!
If Turkey was to return to Eurovision again, what kinda performance would you think would be best to have a good comeback? For those who know the Turkish music scene: who would you like to see performing?
Purely hypothetical question now that it’s Eurovision time again.
Bazı Türkler neden hem batıyı sosyokültürel yönden örnek alır aynı zamanda LGBT haklarına inanmaz?
Aklıma ILGA Rainbow Map 2026’yı görünce geldi (https://www.ilga-europe.org/report/rainbow-map-2026/)
Her şekilde tipik bir Avrupa haritasına benziyor (Batı ve kuzey Avrupa gelişmiş, doğu gelişmemiş, TR en altlarda) bunu her hangi bir konuda görünce bir çok insana çok mantıklı gelir ve Türkiye’nin ne kadar az gelişmiş olduğuna ve Avrupa’yı örnek almamız gerektiğine dair yorumlar yapılır.
Bu konuda ise eminim aynı fikirler aynı derecede yaygın olmayacak. Genç nüfusta da maalesef homofobi, transfobi vs yaygın. Peki bu çelişkiyi nasıl açıklayabiliriz?

How are funerals in your country?
In Turkey, the family who has lost someone gets visitors and we eat Helva (only reason I’d wanna go to any funeral, I effing love Helva), after 40 days there MIGHT be another event where they read from the Quran…but I assume that’s mostly practiced in rural areas nowadays.
Are there any people from outside Turkey who have visited Anıtkabir? What was your impression and what’s your honest opinion about it?
I am asking because we as Turks don’t realize how bizarre this huge respect towards a country’s founder might seem to foreigners. Afaik it’s also an obligation to visit and give respect to Atatürk during any official state visit.
