first - I’ll be clear that i don’t support the current Israeli regime, and believe they are committing war crimes.
I just don’t understand why Eurovision has become a proxy for what Israel is doing. Why can we not condemn the actions of a state, and also appreciate an event that celebrates joy and unity? Is it so black and white? It feels like undermining the cultural events that show the diversity and open values of Europe, is actually against freedom and supports fascist ideologies.
Supporting something like this song contest, does not equate to supporting genocide.
