Kemalism was never able to make Turkey completely secular, in the modern Western pattern. The Diyanet is a Constitutionally-founded Government Ministry. Beyond that, it's fundamentalist Sunni.
Add to it that the AKP is a spinoff of the late "Virtue Party", but allegedly non-religious.
If Erdogan stays in power, there will be pogroms (though perhaps not government-sponsored.)
