In partycracy, you cannot criticize the government or any part of the state. According to the Article 159 of the Pennal Code, those who criticize the activities of the ministries, the parliament, or the Armed Forces may face prosecution and imprisonment. This law is of course absolutely contrary to democracy. In true democracies, as in the United States, criticizing the government does not only not cause prosecution and imprisonment, but to the contrary, it is a duty of the citizen. It is thought that as citizens find faults with the government and expose them, those faults can be corrected and the wheels of the state begin to turn more smoothly.
Criticism is punished only in partycracy and in dictatorships.
Of course we all know how happy the Turkish people are today with their government. Unfortunately, the country cannot tolerate any more of the same success. People have begun to spill into the streets in various places in Turkey and a first empty cash register landed crashing just a few feet from Mr. Ecevit. A tradesman who had no cash left in his cash register, thanks to the Prime Minister, wanted Mr. Ecevit to see it. Mr. Ecevit still refuses to go.
