I dunno. The article talks some crap making out as a "rebranding." The word Turkey having bad connotations, ect. It also gives examples of other countries that have change their name. It just doesn't make sense though as there seems to be no substantial reason and is justified as "just fuckin' cause."
Grayson Ross
So ü is pronounced like in German, right?
Adam Harris
More like Turdgay
Christopher White
Yes, yes. And America is now Ameriga.
Jayden Collins

To be honest I don't even know how to type "ü". Its just isn't on the english keyboard. I had to copy paste it for this post. Its all so fucking tiresome.
Mason Thompson
Apparently Turkey didn't want to be thought as literal turkeys..
Fun fact: Turkey/Türkiye in Finnish is called Turkki which literally means "Fur"

Erdogan is trying hard to grow patriotism and to appear powerful. He also put up giant flags all over Istanbul's landscape (which looks based tbqh).
Jace Taylor

Wyatt Reed

Why does Turkey exist in the first place? Should have been erased from the map after WW1 and Asia Minor territories given back to Greece.
Jonathan Cox
Respect their pronouns, bigot
Adam Moore
