Chapulling is a neologism derived from the 2013 protests in Turkey after Prime Minister Erdogan'
s speech. He used the word "çapulcu" (normally means "looter", "marauder") to describe the demonstrators and then the social sites adapted this word to
English with a new meaning: fighting for
one's rights.
