RZ5 - The Make the Bosporus Great Again Act

Published in Clark #2

WHEREAS the Boss from Bosporus, Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, is one of the most annoying, despicable, and ridiculous political figures of our time, and
WHEREAS the Boss from Bosporus has done many an illegal thing, one of which was to build a Presidential Palace with 1000 rooms with a converted value of roughly 203 million Louise (~305 million USD) in a nature reserve, and
WHEREAS the Boss from Bosporus has defied orders from Turkey's courts, including the highest court, forbidding him to continue building his Presidential Palace, and
WHEREAS recently, the Boss from Bosporus has, with disesteem to diplomatic decorum, summoned the German ambassador to Turkey to appear before the Turkish Ministry of Foreign Affairs due to a satirical video published in Germany criticising his person, and
WHEREAS apparently criticism of his person seems to make the Madman from Bosporus even madder, and
WHEREAS democracy is something he wants to do away with, and
WHEREAS we never want political satire to be something journalists could get incarcerated for in Talossa, now

THEREFORE resolve the Ziu to add following new section 35 to Title F. Culture of the Organic Law, after section 34:
 

35. Every Talossan is encouraged to exercise freedom of speech, and to voice his or her critical opinion of public, or political figures, and their actions, within the limits of law. The Ziu especially encourages the citizens of our Kingdom to generate many so-called memes to draw attention to unjust, undemocratic, or illiberal heads of state with tendencies towards megalomania, despotism, fascism, or radical nationalism, be they within or without Talossa.

FURTHERMORE the Ziu condemns the erratic actions of Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, and reminds him, and the People of the Republic of Turkey, of the importance of democracy, freedom of speech, and rule of law.
