AI Thread Summary
Turkish police are employing water cannons and tear gas to disperse peaceful protesters demonstrating against the destruction of Taksim Square park. Local media coverage is largely absent regarding these police actions, which are described as brutal. Protesters assert their democratic rights and express a desire for freedom and dignity, opposing what they perceive as a drift towards a dictatorial and Islamic state under the current government. The movement emphasizes solidarity with slogans like "Everywhere is Taksim, the Struggle is Everywhere," highlighting the widespread nature of their resistance against perceived governmental oppression.

"Siz sprey sıktıkça, biz büyüyoruz"
