Patrick is the official mascot of Turkey

Because, even if just subconciously, you know he's holding a flag between his bare buttcheeks in this scene

Every time I see this meme, I just have a good chuckle. Not just because the flag, and the patrick and parachute visuals look similar, but also because of a Turkish saying: "Yiğidin malı maydandadır", roughly translating to "Stalwart person's possessions be in open/visible", with the double entendre of both putting merit into being a transparent person and also meaning a sexual joke of not shying away from one's genitals in slang. The slang meaning, for me at least, applies quite well in this situation.

Gobbling up all the fun

Maybe we should rename the bird too

This is the most wrong hill to die on.

We have a lot more problems with the English-speaking countries' double standards on how they reflect or view anything about us. Like how us closing the Bosphorus to Russian and Ukrainian warships when the war broke out and the European internet dwellers calling us assholes or the rogue element of NATO, even though the action is completely lawful, actually an obligation by international law, and obviously very much in favor of Ukraine. Or how this time Tayyip didn't bow down to the U.S. pressure for focusing on just declaring Hamas as terrorists as a distraction and show of unjust solidarity behind Israel when the latter, at those exact days, had started bombing hospitals, "safe" evacuation routes, ambulances and aid convoys, while all European leaders just did that and kept sending weapons.

The UN accepting the change and using it officially is one thing; it shows the acknowledgement in official capacity. Calling ordinary people to adhere to it is something else. People show this change willingly, by earning the respect through might used in service of justice and protection, tendency to make compromises on cultural connections, investing in beneficial and noble pursuits -or simply meritocracy in the basic sense-, willingness for mutual aid in both crisis times and in peaceful times. Just working up on trivial things like how other citizens call a country or how they don't find our kokoreç to be up to health standards is just showing unwillingness for compromise or tolerance in even the most basic disputes while there are matters of human rights and international affairs to pursue.

Having this half-U.S. puppet-half-wannabe-dictator of a president is already putting us in between a rock and hard place. Don't try to police people's pronunciations while you should discuss how to find a solution for both of these.

Sorry if it sounds harsh or over the top. I just wanted to provide an (unsolicited but needed) explanation for the downvotes you take.
