While having conversation, a very well travelled US American asked if I was Turkish, and after learning that that is the case, she asked where did I study, after learning that it was METU, she just said "ah, typical, charming as any METU graduate!".

My take on #Stadtbild . A couple of months ago I was visiting Poland from Germany and I thought that Poland looked culturally less diverse, and everyone was smoking.

I have the hunch that Wilson's "self-determination principle" and the nation-state ideal have a nudge towards the empire, provincializing the other empires to make them their dependencies. As the idea does not apply to the US empire, it feels very pro US. Any reading on that?

There is this Turkish joke: A creditor takes the debtor to court, claiming that the debtor did not pay his debt. The judge asks him if that is correct and, if so, why. The debtor answers; - When my creditor wanted the money back, I asked for a month to collect the money +
