I noticed similar sentiments to this before; why are some Turkish people kissing up to Europeans like this?

    Ah, that would certainly explain some of the other weird tweets I've found from some Turkish folks. I recall after the earthquake in Turkey, there was a tweet talking about racist hate mail that a mosque got of someone celebrating the earthquake killing so many people, and a Turkish person responded to clarify that Turks aren't muslims; he seemed only put out by being conflated with being a muslim rather than the racist taking some glee in the deaths of so many Turkish people.
