Louis Fishman لوي فيشمان לואי פישמן added,
@Istanbultelaviv Not competing explanations. HDP won over ex-AKP Kurdish votes, yep. Political red-line crossing among "white Turks." Yep.
@Istanbultelaviv Ex-AKP Kurds to HDP the numerically larger impact? Absolutely. Is the political line crossed by white Turks deeper? Yes.
@Istanbultelaviv But legitimization, open discussion and even substantial voting among totally alien "white Turk" crowd to HDP? Fascinating.
@zeynep @Istanbultelaviv more broadly i think they question official line now b/c of distrust of powers that be incl. doctrine on kurds
@aylajean @Istanbultelaviv That is exactly what I heard in Gezi, from folks puzzling through their experience. Wait. Us. Wait. Kurds. Wait..
@aylajean @Istanbultelaviv It feels like reverse of process that made Kurdish deputies champions of LGBT rights in the previous parliament.
@aylajean @Istanbultelaviv An empathy expanded to another "other" through a shared experienced of "otherness" --if few other commonalities.
@zeynep @Istanbultelaviv also HDP's policies appeal to liberal urban voters: women & LGBT rights, environment, so voting for them easier
@aylajean @Istanbultelaviv Right, so big question is how HDP manages its core constituency vs. this. My gut feeling is it's possible.
@aylajean @Istanbultelaviv ..in that the even more religious Kurds have never been about political islam, but about own rights & respect.
@zeynep @Istanbultelaviv i agree. demirtas has deftly managed competing pressures: kurdish nationalist grassroots, islamists, leftists
