The oppression of the Kurds didn't start with Erdoğan. If anything, Erdoğan has been better for the Kurds than the Secular/Military establishment.

They deserve independence regardless if their new tyrant is more benign than previous ones.

Well, if they want it sure. And I suspect an independence referendum would end in a yes vote. But the meme that Erdoğan and the AKP are responsible for the ills of Turkey is ridiculous.

Also, lol at Greece annexing the NW and Armenia taking the Northeast.

Armenia regaining those lands would be like Germany regaining Kaliningrad.

Bad comparison. Turkey was an aggressor, which got rewarded for its agression and genocide. Germany was an aggressor, which got punished for its aggression (and indirectly its genocide).

Anyway, the point is that it would basically entail massive ethnic cleansing for Armenia to regain those territories.

Why on earth should Istanbul be ceded to Greece? That ship has clearly sailed...
