The date reference is to the day Turkey will hold a key referendum that would grant even more powers to Erdogan. It also includes a link to a 4-minute, pro-Erdogan video on YouTube in which the president says: “If we’re going to die, let’s die like men."
The hashtags #Nazialmanya and #Nazihollanda (#NaziGermany and #NaziNetherlands) are in reference to Turkey's recent diplomatic beef with Germany and Netherlands.
