Tyler Durden, Chapuller: The Rules of Gezi Parkı

Reproduced faithfully from a sign in Gezi Parkı :

1st Rule: You must talk about Gezi Parkı.

2nd Rule: You must talk about Gezi Parkı.

3rd Rule: If a politician, police or anyone says "stop", it means "stay strong".

4th Rule: Thousands will stand arm to arm.

5th Rule: Tens of protests may occur all over the country at the same time.

6th Rule: No stones, no clubs.

7th Rule: Protests will go on as long as they have to.

8th Rule: If this is your first night at Gezi Parkı, stay not to be the last.

  1. I love your writing and reporting. I am a teacher in the USA and will be moving to Istanbul this summer to begin a teaching career there in your beautiful city. Please keep writing! I glean so much from your perspective.

    1. Thank you very much. You will love Istanbul. It is very challenging right now, but I can honestly say that there is absolutely nowhere else on earth I'd rather be.
