Are there Turks who don't like M.K. Ataturk?

Yes, there are.

That is quite normal if you look at the issue form a sociological point of view;

Turkish nation does not demonstrate a homogeneous pattern in beliefs, political and sociological behaviors.

There are people who are quite fundamental in Islamic belief so it is expected of them not to like Ataturk, who separated religion and state. Islam, originally being a state-rule regulating system, conflicts with secularism .

Being one of the most radical reformists of the 20th century , Ataturk is not very appreciated by conservative- generally speaking- people, either.

I'm sure there are.And there should be.

Ataturk was not a superman flying over buildings. He was smart and courageous,both in politics and military.But didn't he make any mistakes? Sure he did. And those can be criticized. There are two reasons people won't criticize him aloud.

1- The greatness of the things he achieved leaves the rest in shadows

2- There are still certain laws banning to talk against him.

Sad but true.

He was not only leader for Turk's. He was an example for the countries that lives under the pressure of imperialism.

If, at the moment Turkey does not like Iran , this is the reason of Ataturk's revolutions. Bur there are some Turk's has sympathy for life at Iran. These people don't like him.

AND WE WILL SEND THEM TO IRAN.

Good Morning Babe,

Unfortunately, Yes, there are ...
These People never understand Ataturk, maybe they did not read exactly, they read just only one side,

Ipek, I liked it your answer and I agree ...

Happy New Year for all my friends,

yes there are and they are the Islamics in Türkiye..
there are people who does not agree with Atatürk in the left wing but they at least do appreciate him, generally speaking most of us do love Atatürk..He is the biggest hero of all times..

I Totally agree with Ipek. K , she has summed it up perfectly, Turkey being a Islam Nation, and Mustard Kemal Ataturk a reformist, who transformed the country in to a modern Turkey , is bound to make enemies along the way , specially from some of the Muslim fundamentalists, Turkey is being governed by the ideals of M.K. Ataturk who set out these ideals,,
Turkey has come a long way since, and should never deflect,or distract, lead away from legacy handed down by this Great man, Father of Turkish Nation

Trotsky vs Kerensky- НекIо!

Only a very small minority. I, personally, don't call them "Turk" anyway.

Kaankaan

I belive 95% loves M.K.Ataturk and the others are noneducated people are the islamic fanatics.

Of course, there are many people who do not like Ataturk. That's because their conservative minds have an affective filter that rejects contemporary views and modernism. Besides those, there are some people who love to criticize Ataturk. To them, I say, 'do one fourth of what has done in 15 years, under such unfavorable conditions, with today's technological facilities, and then I will tell you that you are better than Atatürk.' And I would give them 25 years to do that!

ErAs

there are not such turks.. there might be some other origined people who doesnt like him but not turks! i dont wanna believe in that!

crazygirl158

yes
but since M.K. Ataturks beliefs and goals represent a better nation, these who don't support him are mostly not so open-minded people, mostle too religious people...
There may be some who believe in a different path then ataturk's but their goal is the same...
I am myself a kemalist!!
