Rampant ethnic discrimination towards Kurds, Armenians etc... You know. I would like to actually to see the topography of Azerbaijan and architectural sites too. What part are from?

Posted from TSR Mobile


Nope I don't know. We have nothing against Kurds, actually Haydar Aliyev was ethnic Kurd.
About Armenians, I am not gonna make this thread political discussion about Armenia and Azerbaijan, considering it's Turkish thread. Not every Turk on TSR wants to read it probably.
I think you have wrong impression of Azerbaijan, but you can visit and make decision yourself. We are very tolerate republic.

what do you mean "what part are from?"

what would you disagree with? Have you ever been in Azerbaijan? It's like saying I hate pizza, I never tasted it, but still I hate it.

I would say don't be that judgemental unless you see it, and if you ever decide to go to Azerbaijan, don't do it to prove yourself you are right, don't look for bad things, don't blame the country if the sun is too shiny and you dont like it :smile: You should have neutral view before you arrive :redface: Every single person can find negatives in every single nation.

I am from capital.Born and grown up there.

It's quite a funny little merry-go-round of ethnic 'hatred' that supposedly exists in the region. You say that Azerbaijanis discriminate towards Kurds and Armenians, but then Armenians also discriminate towards Kurds, etc.

And to be honest, you could say the same sort of thing to an Englishman trying to advertise his country for tourism with 'rampant ethnic discrimination towards South Asians and African-Caribbeans' (and don't pretend it doesn't exist).

Just because I haven't been to a place it doesn't mean I can't have an opinion or know of a place. And I am objective of pretty much every place, it doesn't negate the fact I can see faults with it. And my flag on my username hardly means anything. I was born in Anatolia.

Not to the level in relation to these though aye there is discrimination in every place, rather the discrimination in places like Turkey, Azerbaijan verges on ethnographical and historical ignorance.

I saw so many turks in London speaking in "mixed language" eng+turkish, and they make it sound so smooth like its a separate language :smile:


I do this too when with the guy I'm dating without realising it :colondollar:

It kinda helps when you're more comfortable speaking English, but want to say some things you wouldn't want others to hear :tongue:
