In the interests of natural justice, fair play, balance and free speech etc, I would like an opportunity to submit my views:
The above caption (Koo Klux Klan) has been posted on several previous occasions. How many I'm not sure, but it's getting very, very boring now. Dear Mr. Scunner, can't you come up with something new please?
It's too cliquey, too remote and too cold.
You obviously don't like the people who live Uzumlu, so why don't you come out and just say that? Or better still, simply discard the Uzumlu section on this forum?
Too remote? Can you please define what "too remote" actually means? Remote from what exactly? Do you mean away from the holiday resorts full of grockles?
Too cold? Colder than where? If you compare Uzumlu temperatures with Fethiye then yes, it is on average cooler. But if you compare with average temperatures anywhere in the UK, it will be WARMER, SUNNIER, DRIER AND LESS HUMIDITY.
Too cliquey? Yes probably- but that is the same the world over in small towns and villages away from the mainstream.
I take the view that the technique that is employed to counter opinions that are not agreed with is to use "The Straw Man" argument which goes like this:
Quote from Wikipedia: "The so-called typical "attacking a straw man" argument creates the illusion of having completely refuted or defeated an opponent's proposition by covertly replacing it with a different proposition (i.e., "stand up a straw man"
and then to refute or defeat that false argument ("knock down a straw man"
instead of the original proposition."
And: "To be successful, a straw man argument requires that the audience be ignorant or uninformed of the original argument."
