"alleged war crimes"

God, I hate the guardian. The idf is literally videotaping and bragging about the war crimes they're doing, adding "alleged" is just insulting at this point.

Those are simply "videos of alleged war crimes" obviously

[-] [email protected] 4 points 7 months ago

For real, them and basically all the big outlets weren't leaning into calling shit "alleged" when the IOF and Israeli media were making false claims about Palestine (along with calling Israeli children kids/children but calling Palestinian children shit like "youths").

I think it is kind of darkly funny that "small country that is in the Eurovision despite being wholly located in Asia and should be banned for commiting ethnic cleansing/genocide" is actually a category with more than one member. Because they also let Azerbajdzjan in every year.

~~small~~ country that is in the Eurovision despite being wholly located in Asia and should be banned for commiting ethnic cleansing/genocide

Wasn't aware Australia was in Asia

Australia also competes in the AFC Asia football cup.

Why is Israel in EUROvision to begin with?

Lol, just kidding, I know why.

[-] [email protected] 33 points 7 months ago

Also: Israel competes in UEFA while every country they border is in the Asian or African confederation

The people there are mostly of European decent. I will respect their ancestral claim to their European homeland.

Icelandic artists being cool doesn't surprise me, but the Finns coming in clutch was a pleasant shock.

The Finnish ones just hate Jewish people

[-] [email protected] 36 points 7 months ago

I was gonna say, Finland going anti-Israel is gonna be the first time the "X-country is just antisemitic!" accusations are true

[-] [email protected] 21 points 7 months ago

Maybe it's just the groups I follow but Finland has had pro-Palestine protests basically every week. They're pretty small, but I could see an artist or two coming from that crowd

[-] [email protected] 22 points 7 months ago

I'm mostly just joking around, I don't know much about Finland other than "The Axis member who didn't get bad press for it," I live in the Great Satan and there are decent people even here.

[-] [email protected] 11 points 7 months ago

I mean you're basically right lol

[-] [email protected] 3 points 7 months ago

The average Finn isn't likely to be anti-semitic. They make up for it by being incredibly racist towards Roma, black people and Muslims

[-] [email protected] 12 points 7 months ago

Do they even have any Jews in Finland to hate in the first place?

[-] [email protected] 3 points 7 months ago

Well not anymore.

[-] [email protected] 29 points 7 months ago

I can't see Israel participating. Eurovision has a lot of young viewers, and young people have overwhelmingly negative opinions about Israel. They can't vet the entire live audience.

Disgusting the way they say "alleged war crimes".

[-] [email protected] 21 points 7 months ago

pff, this kind of meddling will turn eurovision into a JOKE!

[-] [email protected] 8 points 7 months ago

It's finally happened, a post about Finnish people on Hexbear that doesn't make me wince

[-] [email protected] 6 points 7 months ago

i'd think making them stay in Eurovision would be punishment enough.

But zionists are model europeans, they clearly embody all the values that europeans hold dear to their heart
