There are many catch-phrases of the group, "Çarşı, her şeye karşı!" (English: Çarşı is against everything!") being probably the most famous one.[2]
In May 2008, Çarşı disbanded itself unexpectedly.[2] However, in the 2013 Turkish protests, Çarşı was a central mobilizing force for anti-Erdogan protests.
