Destici added yet another instance of hate speech to his record. He targeted LGBTI+ people, calling them “moral terror” and “perversion.” Destici had recently described Mabel Matiz as a “moral terrorist” as well.
The Chairman of the Great Unity Party (BBP), Mustafa Destici, targeted LGBTI+ associations during his party’s Provincial Congress at the Çorum State Theatre Hall.
In his speech, Destici said:
“They are not only waging war against the Muslim Turkish nation in the military field, they are trying to corrupt our nation. They are trying to destroy our morals, to damage our faith.”
Claiming that TV series and songs constitute “moral terror” and referring to LGBTI+ people as “perversion,” Destici continued:
“That’s why, instead of those TV series, other kinds should be made. Series should be produced that will raise awareness among our youth, instill in them the feeling of holding onto their identity and faith. Films, programs should be made; songs should be like that, folk songs should be like that. But now you see, they are trying to pass off LGBT perversion to us as freedom. And who defends these? DEM defends them, TIP defends them, CHP defends them, and those around them defend them.”
Destici continued his hate speech by alleging that LGBTI+ associations target children and young people:
“That’s why we say this attack on Turkey is not only through terrorism, not only through armed terrorist organizations. These TV series, these songs, LGBT associations, all of these are carrying out moral terror against us and trying to make us lose our children, trying to make us lose our youth. Against online betting, drugs, prostitution, all of these, we need to fight much more seriously and on a larger scale. This is more dangerous than armed terror.”
Destici had targeted Mabel Matiz, calling him a “moral terrorist”
Destici had also targeted Mabel Matiz, whose song Perperişan was recently made inaccessible and against whom the Ministry of Interior filed a criminal complaint, calling him a “moral terrorist.”
Describing Mabel Matiz’s song as “a new tool of dirty propaganda,” Destici said:
“All content that carries out LGBT propaganda under the guise of art must be immediately blocked; the singers, artists who facilitate these… These charlatans should be arrested and, as moral terrorists, be held accountable before the exalted Turkish justice and punished in the harshest way.”
