Mr. Gokcek’s Twitter posts were an effort to highlight what he saw as hypocrisy shown by the United States government and media in taking other countries to task for their human rights lapses. Turkey came under widespread international criticism for its handling of sweeping antigovernment demonstrations in 2013, which were set off by plans to raze Istanbul’s central Gezi Park and replace it with a shopping mall.

Turkish pro-government media outlets on Monday quickly drew parallels between those events and the violent rioting, looting and destruction of property on Monday in Baltimore.

“According to the blonde girl, the government’s reaction during the Gezi Park protests were worrisome, but when it comes to your country, is it normal to declare a curfew,” Mr. Gokcek wrote in a separate Twitter post, apparently comparing the brutal response by the Turkish police to Baltimore’s efforts to keep people off the streets. Mr. Gokcek could not be immediately reached for comment on Wednesday.

During the 2013 uprising, the Turkish police beat demonstrators and used tear gas and water cannons repeatedly to disperse crowds; hundreds were injured and at least eight people were killed. By contrast, the police response to the rioting in Baltimore has been muted; some residents said the police showed restraint.
