Even if some Kurds in the past did terrible things there is no excuse for the Turks denying them a state today.

I never said they did. I'm just pointing out the myopic view that the Kurds are and always have been the victims is "fake news". The media perpuate fallacies like this because either they or the society to which they cater can't accept a world that hasn't been painted in black and white.
Good point. Media narratives tend to be very simplistic

Agree and this discussion is an example of what can be achieved by actually doing that - discussing. A two way conversation. Be willing to hear as well as give your own opinion.
