BANDIT KNOWS/NOW

THE POWER OF SOCIAL MEDIA

Ever since the Green Movement that arose in Iran after the fraudulent presidential elections in 2009, the power and influence of social media when it comes to political mobilization, is highly acknowledged.

Social media enabled millions of people to speak up and make themselves heard outside of the borders of their home countries, connecting them thereby to the world.

Well, the power of these technological developments when it comes to driving political movements and mobilizing people to act is undeniable and the latest shut down of Twitter in Turkey is just another example of how powerful they have become!

Shame on you Mr. Erdogan! You can try to shut up people but that will only make them stronger!
