Like all walls, this wall was ambiguous and two-faced. What was inside and what was outside depended on which side of the wall we were looking at.

The research of French psychoanalyst and anthropologist Benoit Fliche is particularly valuable.The Alevi-Bektashi culture, which has been the target of much oppression and attack throughout Turkish history, continues to inspire defenders of social life.

Alevism still persists in some eastern provinces of Turkey (Batman, Muş - Varto, Bitlis, Erzincan, Elazığ, etc.). Alevism derives its culture from a tradition of tolerance and living for life. There are many studies on the Alevi faith.

Alevism, a deeply rooted belief and culture, is primarily found in the Dersim region of Turkey (renamed Tunceli after the Republic).

It should not be forgotten that a person is only human to the extent that they can feel the pain of others.

Humans are social beings and cannot isolate themselves from the events that occur. Isolation is an illusion. The end result of absolute individualism is falling into chaos in the search for objects of desire.

The fact that the aforementioned intellectuals/academics in Turkey are completely preoccupied with academic concerns, remain distant from political events, and create an abstract world for themselves is one reason for the silence.

Unfortunately, the public reaction seen in the past when similar events occurred is not visible in Turkey today. This is largely because society has become accustomed to these events.

In Turkey, 1,737 workers have died in the last 10 months. The vast majority of these workers were child laborers and migrant workers. These deaths are political. Capital gain and accumulation worship the culture of exploitation.
