Are you claiming that similar and worse things didn't happen in Turkey?

With the exception of the Armenian genocide (which is comparable in vileness to many things, including the actions of that wonder of private enterprise, the East India Company) - yes. Not during the late 19th and 20th century, I mean. Turkish landlords might've been feudals, but they didn't outright steal the entirety of their tenants' livelihood from under them.

Let me get this straight: you're trying to argue that Britain was harsh because some people expressed opposition to a law you like?

The other way around! Many respected people hated and denounced it so much, it famously prompted Dickens to write Oliver Twist.
