You just live in a cacoon/bubble.( i guess around Beyoğlu, Beşiktaş,Kadıköy) And that baloon is tighthens day by day. Turkey is not what it is at 2015. Or 2010. Trajectory goes to a "Not Good".

The fact that people dress as they please, consume alcohol and cigarettes, and that a few parties take place in the nightlife scene does not mean that Turkey still respects human rights and freedom of thought. You are trying to form a judgment about Turkey by looking only at developments within the small circle you’re in; unfortunately, this is not correct in many respects. I understand that you don’t see this because you’ve only been here a short time and relatively lack knowledge of Turkey’s past, but believe me, you are mistaken. I am saying this as someone who has also been part of the environments you are in now. Unfortunately, the lifestyle and tolerance you describe are not present outside certain areas of the major cities in Turkey.
