Every nation including Turkey claims to be modern, but you still can be attacked in your home and dragged to prison for stating your opinion. There's nothing modern about it.
As a politician you should be ready to face criticism and even insults.
There are countries where you can speak your mind freely. And politicians are and have to assume what they are doing. People won't talk bad about politicians that are good and loved.
There are no politicians loved by all because they have to make choices and choices never result in all people getting everything they want. Sometimes they have to take from one group and give to another.
