Çakar has often portrayed himself as [[wikipedia:Political moderate|moderate]].{{Citation needed}} A [[wikipedia:The Political Compass|political compass]] published by the [[Batyr Times]] in 2013 had Çakar placed in the [[wikipedia:Libertarian left|libertarian-left]] quadrant.<ref>https://www.hasanistan.world/2013/06/political-compass-of-our-politicians.html?m=1</ref> He has been described in different news articles as being a [[Hasani nationalism|nationalist]],<ref>https://www.hasanistan.world/2020/04/hasanistan-granted-independence-from.html</ref> a [[wikipedia:Populism|populist]]<ref>https://www.hasanistan.world/2020/11/hasanistan-voters-head-to-poll-for.html</ref> and having had [[wikipedia:Socialism|socialist]] leanings.<ref>https://www.hasanistan.world/2016/11/idealist-party-to-hold-controversial.html</ref> He has previously stated his opposition to [[mahuset:Eniakism|Eniakism]] and compared its rise in popularity to the spread of [[wikipedia:Communism|communism]] during the 20th century,<ref>https://www.hasanistan.world/2021/07/eniakist-party-established.html</ref> although the founder of Eniakism [[Emiel Hardy]] has been regarded as a hero to Çakar and he later advocated for "consuming Eniakism".<ref name="anime"/>
In 1940, Italy [[Italian conquest of British Somaliland|conquered British Somaliland]] and annexed it into the [[Italian East Africa]]. While Italy didn't have sodomy laws since 1890, the Fascist regime still punished homosexuals. In 1941, the British reconquered British Somaliland and re-instated their sodomy laws.<ref name="ILGA" />


=== British Somali Coast Protectorate===
Çakar publicly announced support for [[wikipedia:Turanism|Turanism]] and established the [[Hasanistani Turanic Society]]. Following the establishment of the Turanic Society, he stated "[the organisation] aims to inspire other groups in Turanic countries for the eventual goal of a Turan super-state spreading from the [[wikipedia:Sapmi|Sami regions]] of [[wikipedia:Scandinavia|Scandinavia]] to [[wikipedia:Alaska|Alaska]] and from as north as [[wikipedia:Yakutia|Yakutia]] to as south as [[wikipedia:Hejaz|Hijaz]] in [[wikipedia:Saudi Arabia|Saudi Arabia]]". He considers [[mahuset:Mahusetan people|Mahusetans]] as part of the "[[wikipedia:Turanid race|Turanian family]]" describing them as "honourary Turanians to the highest degree". He has described [[wikipedia:Indo-European languages|Indo-European]] ("[[wikipedia:Aryan race|Aryan]]") countries as "failed states" compared to Turanian states such as [[wikipedia:North Korea|North Korea]].<ref name="TuranSociety">https://www.hasanistan.world/2020/09/hasanistani-turanic-society-established.html</ref> He supports the [[Japonic Hasani|Japonic script]] as part of a "Turanian cultural revival" and referred to the [[wikipedia:Latin script|Latin script]] as "Franco-[[wikipedia:Freemasonry|Masonic]]", "bourgeois-decadent" and "pushed by the agents of the Bogdanoff brothers".<ref name="japonic">https://www.hasanistan.world/2021/01/presidential-decree-establishes-japonic.html</ref>
Prior to independence from the British, the [[Section 420 of the Indian Penal Code|Indian Penal Code of 1860]]<ref>{{Cite web|title=Somaliland Criminal Law|url=http://www.somalilandlaw.com/criminal_law.html|access-date=2021-02-03|website=www.somalilandlaw.com}}</ref> was applied in [[British Somaliland|British Somali Coast protectorate]].<ref name="penal code">[http://www.somalilandlaw.com/Penal_Code_English.pdf LEGISLATIVE DECREE NO. 5 OF 16 December 1962]</ref>


=== Somali Republic ===
Prior to the 2016 presidential election, he expressed support for [[wikipedia:Decentralisation|decentralisation]] of the Hasanistani government.<ref>https://www.hasanistan.world/2016/02/decentralization-plans.html</ref> He later expressed support for a [[wikipedia:Unitary state|unitary state]] and scepticism over [[Hasani federalism|federalism]] in 2018.<ref name="provincialreform2018">https://www.hasanistan.world/2018/03/provinicial-reform-plan-released.html</ref>
In 1964, a new penal code came into force in the [[Somali Republic]].<ref>{{Cite web|title=Somaliland Criminal Law|url=http://www.somalilandlaw.com/criminal_law.html|access-date=2021-02-03|website=www.somalilandlaw.com}}</ref> The code states that "Whoever has carnal intercourse with a person of the same sex shall be punished, where the act does not constitute a more serious crime, with imprisonment from three months to three years. Where the act committed is an act of lust different from carnal intercourse, the punishment imposed shall be reduced by one-third."<ref name="penal code" /> The code has since been abolished by the United Kingdom after seeing it as one of the most discriminating laws crafted by a former world power. The [[United Kingdom]] has since then legalised [[homosexuality]], [[Civil partnership in the United Kingdom|civil partnership]], and [[Same-sex marriage in the United Kingdom|same-sex marriage]].<ref name="penal code" />


=== Somali Democratic Republic ===
He is pro-[[wikipedia:Anime|anime]] and supports its deregulation.<ref name="TuranSociety"/><ref name="anime">https://www.hasanistan.world/2021/11/president-hasan-cakar-deregulates-anime.html</ref> Çakar considers anime as "Turanian" due to its Japanese origins.<ref name="TuranSociety"/> He proposed an act in the Mejlis which stipulated harsh punishments for "insulting anime", including public lashings, execution by firing squad or exile.<ref>[https://www.hasanistan.world/2020/08/hasanistan-passes-law-prohibiting.html]</ref>
Under Article 409 of the Somali Penal Code introduced in 1973, sexual intercourse with a person of the same sex is punishable by imprisonment from three months to three years.<ref>{{Cite web|title=Entry #485: Homosexual activity in Somalia|url=https://www.equaldex.com/log/485|access-date=2021-02-03|website=Equaldex|language=en}}</ref> An "act of lust" other than sexual intercourse is punishable by a prison term of two months to two years. Under Article 410 of the Somali Penal Code, an additional security measure may accompany sentences for homosexual acts, usually coming in the form of police surveillance to prevent "re-offending".<ref name="ILGA">{{cite web |url=http://old.ilga.org/Statehomophobia/ILGA_SSHR_2014_Eng.pdf |title=STATE-SPONSORED HOMOPHOBIA |access-date=26 November 2016 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20161020202330/http://old.ilga.org/Statehomophobia/ILGA_SSHR_2014_Eng.pdf |archive-date=20 October 2016 |url-status=dead }}</ref><ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.unhcr.org/refworld/pdfid/486a52e40.pdf|title=Refworld – Somalia Country Assessment|author=United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees|work=Refworld}}</ref>

=== Federal Government of Somalia ===
He expressed great admiration for the [[wikipedia:Bogdanoff brothers|Bogdanoff brothers]] and said "they brought light into our world and showed us the enlightened path" after the death of both brothers<ref>https://www.hasanistan.world/2022/01/hasanistan-issues-condolences-on.html</ref> but also previously accused them of promoting negative policies against Hasanistan.<ref name="japonic"/> Çakar announced he supported [[wikipedia:QAnon|QAnon]] in 2020, although the statement was regarded as non-serious.<ref>https://www.hasanistan.world/2020/08/hasan-cakar-i-trust-plan-of-q.html</ref> He described the political views of Tanju Çakar and Shady Morsi as "dangerous politics" in 2017.<ref>https://www.hasanistan.world/2017/05/second-constitution-returns-as.html</ref>
==== HIV/AIDS prevention ====
Family planning services are hard to access, as is fact-based information on human sexuality. Humanitarian workers have stated that [[Islam]]ic social mores often make it difficult to publicly talk about how the virus can be spread.<ref name="data.unaids.org">{{cite web|url=http://data.unaids.org/pub/Report/2008/somalia_2008_country_progress_report_en.pdf|title=United Nations General Assembly Special Session on HIV/AIDS|access-date=2020-01-15}}</ref> Since 1999, much of the AIDS/HIV education and care has come from international organizations such as the United Nations.<ref name="data.unaids.org" />


Despite this, Somalia and neighbouring Ethiopia has one of the lowest HIV infection rates on the continent.  While the estimated HIV prevalence rate in Somalia in 1987 (the first case report year) was 1% of adults,<ref name="RCTHIV">{{cite journal |journal=Archives of Iranian Medicine |volume=10 |issue=4 |pages=486–497 |url=http://ams.ac.ir/AIM/07104/0012.htm |title=Religious and Cultural Traits in HIV/AIDS Epidemics in Sub-Saharan Africa |date=October 2007 |access-date=27 June 2010 |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20080413173845/http://ams.ac.ir/aim/07104/0012.pdf |archive-date=13 April 2008 |last1=Velayati |first=Ali-Akbar |last2=Bakayev |first2=Valeri |display-authors=etal}}</ref> a more recent estimate from 2007 now places it at only 0.5% of the nation's adult population.<ref name=2009factbook>{{cite web|url=https://www.cia.gov/the-world-factbook/countries/somalia/|title=Somalia|access-date=31 May 2009|date=14 May 2009|work=[[World Factbook]]|publisher=[[Central Intelligence Agency]]}}</ref>
===Social views===
Çakar banned [[wikipedia:TikTok|TikTok]] in Hasanistan through a public health executive order during the COVID-19 pandemic, describing it as "shameful and an attack on the revolutionary principles upon which Hasanistan was built" and accused it of promoting [[wikipedia:Promiscuity|promiscuity]]. He instead advised people to spend their time "producing mathematics, technology and books about the history of Great Nations such as Hasanistan" and said that the "behaviour" of using TikTok belonged to immoral people "such as [[wikipedia:Culture of the United States|modern Americans]] or [[microwiki:Ashukovo|Ashukovs]]".<ref>https://www.hasanistan.world/2020/04/naib-i-sehinsah-bans-tiktok.html</ref>


==== LGBT organizations ====
Çakar is known to have supported expressed support for [[wikipedia:Harem|Turkic-style polygyny]] as "common sense" and "21st century" as part of an election promise in the run-up to the 2020 elections, where men could marry multiple women. He justified it by saying it was "unfair" that men could not marry "many beautiful virgin wives and concubines for fun" and "[it would] increase our birth rates so we have more citizens and it will also make our population happier".<ref>https://www.hasanistan.world/2020/06/2020-election-cakar-promises-to-bring.html</ref> He later abandoned support for the policy to promote himself as a national unity candidate.<ref>https://www.hasanistan.world/2020/08/cakar-rescinds-controversial-electoral.html</ref>
{{Expand section|date=February 2017}}
As of 2004, one group reportedly existed for LGBT people in Somalia.<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.glapn.org/sodomylaws/world/somalia/sonews007.htm |title=Death Hangs Over Somali Queers |publisher=sodomylaws.org |date=3 May 2004 |access-date=23 September 2015 |url-status=live |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20040811193107/http://www.sodomylaws.org/world/somalia/sonews007.htm |archive-date=11 August 2004 }}</ref>

He has expressed hope that more than half of Hasanistan's population will be female in the future.<ref>https://www.hasanistan.world/2021/03/2021-census-demographic-data-released.html</ref>
{{See also|Somali Civil War (2009–present)}}
In territories controlled by [[Harakat al-Shabaab al-Mujahideen]] in Somalia, the terrorist organization enacts a strict interpretation of [[shariah]] which explicitly outlaws homosexuality. The punishment for those found guilty is at a judge's discretion and may be punished by death.<ref>[https://76crimes.com/2016/02/16/report-somalia-too-risky-for-lgbt-people/ Report: Somalia too risky for LGBT people]</ref>

Athletic career

Çakar has participated in many sports events in Hasanistan and has occasionally represented them in some international events. He played for South Hasanistan during the main period of activity of the Hasani A Lig between 2013 and 2015, scoring sixty-seven goals in a total of six appearances and winning the inaugural season in 2013,[citation needed] and also took part in the Hasanistan Wallball League playing for different teams in the competition.[citation needed] He was a player in an unofficial two-versus-one basketball game against a team reportedly representing France.[3]

He participated as a competitor in the 2020 Batyr Chess Invitational in June 2020, where he was defeated in the first round by Chase Mahoning.[citation needed]

Batyr Times

Views

Çakar has often portrayed himself as moderate.[citation needed] A political compass published by the Batyr Times in 2013 had Çakar placed in the libertarian-left quadrant.[4] He has been described in different news articles as being a nationalist,[5] a populist[6] and having had socialist leanings.[7] He has previously stated his opposition to Eniakism and compared its rise in popularity to the spread of communism during the 20th century,[8] although the founder of Eniakism Emiel Hardy has been regarded as a hero to Çakar and he later advocated for "consuming Eniakism".[9]

Çakar publicly announced support for Turanism and established the Hasanistani Turanic Society. Following the establishment of the Turanic Society, he stated "[the organisation] aims to inspire other groups in Turanic countries for the eventual goal of a Turan super-state spreading from the Sami regions of Scandinavia to Alaska and from as north as Yakutia to as south as Hijaz in Saudi Arabia". He considers Mahusetans as part of the "Turanian family" describing them as "honourary Turanians to the highest degree". He has described Indo-European ("Aryan") countries as "failed states" compared to Turanian states such as North Korea.[10] He supports the Japonic script as part of a "Turanian cultural revival" and referred to the Latin script as "Franco-Masonic", "bourgeois-decadent" and "pushed by the agents of the Bogdanoff brothers".[11]

Prior to the 2016 presidential election, he expressed support for decentralisation of the Hasanistani government.[12] He later expressed support for a unitary state and scepticism over federalism in 2018.[13]

He is pro-anime and supports its deregulation.[10][9] Çakar considers anime as "Turanian" due to its Japanese origins.[10] He proposed an act in the Mejlis which stipulated harsh punishments for "insulting anime", including public lashings, execution by firing squad or exile.[14]

He expressed great admiration for the Bogdanoff brothers and said "they brought light into our world and showed us the enlightened path" after the death of both brothers[15] but also previously accused them of promoting negative policies against Hasanistan.[11] Çakar announced he supported QAnon in 2020, although the statement was regarded as non-serious.[16] He described the political views of Tanju Çakar and Shady Morsi as "dangerous politics" in 2017.[17]

Social views

Çakar banned TikTok in Hasanistan through a public health executive order during the COVID-19 pandemic, describing it as "shameful and an attack on the revolutionary principles upon which Hasanistan was built" and accused it of promoting promiscuity. He instead advised people to spend their time "producing mathematics, technology and books about the history of Great Nations such as Hasanistan" and said that the "behaviour" of using TikTok belonged to immoral people "such as modern Americans or Ashukovs".[18]

Çakar is known to have supported expressed support for Turkic-style polygyny as "common sense" and "21st century" as part of an election promise in the run-up to the 2020 elections, where men could marry multiple women. He justified it by saying it was "unfair" that men could not marry "many beautiful virgin wives and concubines for fun" and "[it would] increase our birth rates so we have more citizens and it will also make our population happier".[19] He later abandoned support for the policy to promote himself as a national unity candidate.[20]

He has expressed hope that more than half of Hasanistan's population will be female in the future.[21]
