>>212068072I know that he was explorative, but he was too optimistic and idealistic. He had the work mentality that my uncle and some Balkan migrants / old elite istanbulite class tends to have which is basically work hard and drink hard, technically your work never ends, it's all social and constant meetings.
The mistake he did was allowing the freedom of choice too early, the population wasn't in a position for democracy, even if he was pushing for a opposition and multiparty system.
the majority of the population still today are weak minded fools who idealize some leader that will save them.
This is also a mistake that happened, it was that he allowed himself to get idealized as a persona, he never wanted a cult of personality but ideals, yet it happened anyway.
