The reason I assumed that is because there are a lot of false narratives spun around this guy, so if there was more to show by his haters they would have shown it. I believe you for now, but I will look at this further. Part of why I doubted your claim is that Turkish people are really nice to cats and dogs, but that is a generalization, of course.

Personally, I take issue with his cursing people out. Turkish is the best language for cursing, but a lot of the terms depend on ableism or anthrocentrism ( I think it's called that.) The ableism comes up when he just dismisses someone and their arguments. I pointed out to him he's using the term "psychotic" wrong and that he's thinking of "psychopathy". I thought mainly to correct his English. I'm a triple immigrant. I've had to tutor so many people in English with no pay that I both hate it and do it instinctually. Regardless, the mods jumped on me even though he agreed. He learned the definition of the terms, it seems, but I think armchair diagnosing people with mental illness to dismiss them while saying you're there to educate has plenty wrong about it. Calling someone a donkey cause they're being stupid, for example, makes no sense to me. Donkeys are quite smart. Also, he let himself get distracted by Charlie Kirk's very deserved assassination, and by doing so let the media attention turn away from Palestinians being genocided. I cannot, however, say whether his good deeds outdo the bad so that he's a net positive or negative for the world. Good and bad deeds don't necessarily cancel each other out, and I think evil is more likely to undo good than is the other way around. Such is the nature of creation and destruction.

I want to limit how much I think about each individual political influencer, so I apologize if I don't continue this conversation
