event Eurovision Song Contest 2024 | Switzerland wins!

[zzmyth]

Anyone has the performance by bambie? 

 

I would really love if they won tbh. 

 

But I'll take anyone that is not a genocide (supporter) winning at this point

Doesn't make the other user genocide supporter 

 

 

Supporting a song about genocide sung by an artist who supports genocide does indeed make them supportive of genocide hun.

[Torturo]

Kinda wanna wait for coundown but knowing EBU it's just placeholder countdown and they will just update it with new one once they decide

+ coming in here to brag about how they made their family vote for that song, while knowing what is the prevailing opinion on the matter here, and being desperate for attention

I hope you did as much as you could today to help Palestine in any possible way except calling folks on an obscure pop forum genocide supporters for liking a song. xx

[MAKSIM]

Eurovision fans ironically making Eden a martyr for conservatives and Israel sympathizers  we keep losing. Do something Nutsa!

[Watson!]

guys, don't waste your time arguing with these rats.

WE WERE ALL ROOTING FOR YOU

[igninton]

Omg I go offline for a few hours and Joost on the verge of disqualification? 

 

I'm reading all about it now but I see conflicting headlines, can someone confirm what's the latest tea? Did he not perform at the Jury show? If so, what even is the point of performing tomorrow? Unless they're playing yesterday's performance.

If people genuinely like that song, fine, doesn't necessairily make people genocide supporters, but that one user obviously is in desperate need of attention talking about convincing their family members to spend their hard earned money to vote for it 20 times just to cause a reaction in here, knowing damn well it's nearly impossible to seperate politics and the entry in this very instance for anyone with even a remote sense of empathy for the people in Palestine and Gaza.

Supporting Israel's entry in the current climate contributes to sending a message of support to the country, and therefore a lack of disgust with their acts. Doesn't mean you directly support genocide, but c'mon, you know damn well that this support right now gets other connotations; same case as Ukraine 2022, all those votes were not just for the song they were a (deserving) love and support letter to a country.

 

So, you can like Eden and Hurricane all you want, of course (it's not my type of song, but even I've stated that the girl is talented and the performance is great), but there are some times that the situation is more complex and supporting something you like does a lot of harm. Just listen to it on Spotify and call it a day.

 

In short, would you go all that crazy and vocal for Eden if she was representing Russia and being completely ok with her country's agenda (which she has indeed stated)?

Also mess @ France bombing today when he was my only hope for stealing some of the ballad-bait votes by the jury from Israel. Never count on the French

[fab]

just finished watching the semifinal performances, Ireland and Israel were my favourites, France and Ukraine were also cute 

[igninton]

Honestly, the jury should account for more than 50% of the vote. It is quite literally the only way to prevent wins like Israel 2024 (?) and Ukraine 2022 from happening.

I make monthly donations to multiple Palestinian organizations such as UNRWA and ANEFRA.

 

I continue to go to local protests, and ensured I educated all my friends on being Anti Zionist. But thanks for your concern!

[abelfenty]

The thing is, Hurricane is not even a good song. It's generic crap full of cliches. The contemporary dancing is stupid. Eden's voice is fine but it's not particularly memorable or distinctive.

He did not perform but they did show his semi-final performance. He supposedly got in a physical altercation with female photographer and the investigation is still ongoing (with Swedish police being involved as well).

lol right, instead waste your time making what's supposed to be a lighthearted entertaining show completely political when you could be discussing the songs, performances, stagings, etc. 

 

Sport lovers have it so easy and ain't gotta go through this type of bs during their world and euro championships, but music lovers can't have 3 days in a year without it getting derailed by keyboard warriors and performative activists.

1. He is being investigated by the Swedish police for assaulting official photographer
2. They used Semi performance for juries
3. ROTW has been delayed til 2am probably until decission is made

Sure you do honey, and if I went through your google search history right now I definitely would NOT find "Help Palestine organizations". Good night

[abelfenty]

I don't believe for a second that they'll open the ROTW voting in 2 hours lol
