1. Just to get it out of the way, I'm not Turkish, I was born Kurdish and I've been culturally assimilated into an Anglo-Frisian.

2. Erdogan modernised Turkey? The fuck are you talking about nibba. He actually wants to de-modernise Turkey. Erdogan isn't a nationalist, he's the exact opposite of that. He, just like the Chomars, wants to Arabise Turkey because he's part of that stupid population who believe that speaking Arabic and being Arabic somehow makes you a better Muslim, even though it's believed that Muhammad advocated equality and said quote on quote "Arabs aren't superior to any other Muslims. Don't be discriminatory against other Muslims for not being Arab, for any other Muslims is your brother and sister."

3. The "disallowance for holding hands in public" thing isn't a cultural value, it strictly comes from Islam. Turkish culture was based off of Asian Steppe culture with influences from the Tengri religion, much like the Mongols. Modern Turkish culture also has influence from Balkan nations such as Greece and Bosnia. But their culture never had a policy of discouraging showing attraction in public, it comes only from Islam.

4. "Good for soul and the nation. It would inspire Turks and give them a new hope. Should have done that."

'Hey, our president is building a huge mosque even though we already have a more than subsequent amount of mosques in the country already. Should we support him? HELL YEAH'

A mosque isn't a fucking palace. Its only purpose is providing a base for Muslims to do their five-times-a-day prayers if they want to do it in Jamaat (Jamaat = The act of doing the prayer with the local Muslim community rather than alone at home). A mosque only server religious purposes, it has nothing to do with the nation, it can't boost a country's national pride.

5. All Servan Nishanyan did was say some things along the lines of "The Turkish government is doing bad things" which is something you do too but on other countries. Should you get imprisoned for stating your observations?

6. Chomars are people who mostly live in Inner Anatolia, which is surrounded by mountains. Perhaps they're extremely stupid because the mountains around prevent oxygen from reaching their homes and essentially their brains.

7. Before Ataturk truly modernised the country, children and teeganers were encouraged to become shepherds, farmers or other rural crap like that. They were openly discouraged from taking education and were told "What will getting an education give you?". Ataturk was the real nationalist you're wishing for, he modernised the Turkish language and replaced the Arabic alphabet with a Latin alphabet, he banned the fez which was an Ottoman symbol, he banned titles like "Father, Sheikh, Son of" and instead passed on the "Surname Law".

Ataturk modernised and nationalised Turkey and prevented it from being another wictim of Arabic assimilation like Egypt. The only thing I don't like about him is his expansionism with the Treaty of Lausanne in which he annexed unlawful Kurdish, Greek and Armenian homeland.

You know nothing about Turkish history, you're only pretending to know about it just like you do with everything else. Go do research before discussing anything.
