Sağcı partilerin düzeysizliği sürüyor. Kimileri Atatürk'e
hakaret ediyor, Lozan'ı küçümsüyor; kimileri "yükselen değerler" diye değersizlikleri, vurgunları göklere çıkarıyor; kimileri törenlerde, açılışlarda “Kuran öptek” dini siyasete araç ediyor. Sosyal demokrat olduklarını söyleyenler de "Maaşallah!" Amipler gibi bölünüyorlar, sürekli.
Üstelik "altı-ok"un gösterdiği ilkelerin günümüzde geçerliğini yitirdiği savlarını ileri sürenler de eksik değil...

six arrows
Yes, I agree with the previous answer, but it should be left as "six arrows" literally. The tone in the text suggests the use of an indirect meaning.

six principles of kemalism
Literally it's "six arrows". It refers to the six principles of Kemalism. The principles are represented as arrows in the CHP's amblem.

Dear Mariette,
Yes, what is illustrated in given phrases in Turkish you've been reading (I guess) is completely correct since CHP has been an inevitable, context-driven Reproducer Party in Turkish Republic ever since it was constituted by M.K.Atatürk. Have a great day.
