💀💀💀 8 Ways Eurovision is Rigged for Israel


💀💀💀 8 Ways Eurovision is Rigged for Israel


Verity covers well reasons to boycott Eurovision. I refrained from watching it since the genocide of the people of Gaza by the Israeli Army began in October 2023, that is this year and last year. It’s enraging to see the State of Israel’s song got second place this year: not only it wasn’t kicked out of the competition, but it was way too close to winning. TBH, I really don’t know if the public vote is organic or not, but I wouldn’t be surprised if it isn’t.

An exciting, fun video spilling the T on Eurovision! Woohoo! Yes, so fun! #unitedbymusic #esc2025

Das Bild zeigt ein Logo mit einem schwarzen Hintergrund. Im Zentrum befinden sich zwei gekreuzte Gitarren, deren Köpfe und Körperschaften in den Farben des Regenbogens gestaltet sind. Über den Gitarren steht in großen, weißen, blockartigen Buchstaben "CHRIS VON DER DÜSSEL". Darunter, in kleineren, ebenfalls weißen Buchstaben, steht "LIEBE IST FÜR ALLE DA". Die Farben des Regenbogens symbolisieren die LGBTQ+-Bewegung und stehen für Vielfalt und Inklusion. Das Logo vermittelt eine Botschaft der Liebe und Akzeptanz für alle.

The image features two distinct sections against a dark background. The first section on the top left shows a square icon with a cartoonish character resembling a snail with rabbit-like ears, labeled "Noohance" in blue text. Below the icon, the text "Fediblocks you" is displayed in white. The second section on the bottom left presents a small cartoon character with blonde hair and a blue shirt, labeled "moriarjesse" in purple text. Next to the character, the word "NO" is written in white. The overall layout is simple, with each section clearly separated by a vertical line.

The image features a framed painting displayed on a maroon wall. The painting depicts a woman with a distinctive hairstyle, characterized by a thick, dark eyebrow and a yellow headband. She wears a colorful garment with a patterned design, featuring red and yellow elements. A small monkey with a yellow bow is positioned behind her, adding a playful element to the composition. The background consists of abstract, earthy tones, possibly representing natural elements. The frame is ornate, with intricate carvings and a golden hue, enhancing the overall aesthetic of the artwork.

Wir hätten einen Gewinnersong gehabt. Und haben uns stattdessen für Blalalala entschieden.

Ich finde, das fasst den Zustand dieses Landes eigentlich sehr gut zusammen.

in reply to tagesschau

Der deutsche Beitrag ist ja nunmal ein "Ohrwurm" der zunächst an den Schwierigkeiten einer Live Performance scheiterte: Keine Studioqualität.
Zudem, wie bei Lena Meyer Landruth (seinerzeit) wurde der Song seit Jannuar in den Medien "breit getreten" um diesen Ohrwurm Europaweit bekannt zu machen. Das ist durschaubar.
Zudem waren einige Länder wirklich Besser ; Glückwunsch den verdienten Gewinnern des #ESC .

Related: enwikifriends: is there a reason to prefer/not prefer use of interwiki links [[iarchive]] instead of just… a link to archive? Given that you have to cut a weird substring out of the URL, a URL is much faster; does anyone actually use the extra metadata provided by using iarchive: instead?
social.coop/@luis_in_brief/114…
in reply to Luis Villa

I assume it's good for eventual linked data reasons or if IA changes their URL structure? I know with Flickr, there were a bazillion different ways to make URLs but only only Flickr ID so it was useful to have an identifier. Maybe also a Wikidata thing?

@monkee At times, I felt it wasn't quite as chaotic and energetic as last year in Sweden but then there were some really good bits in the middle that got me to like the hosting performance as a whole.

@monkee I was super happy to hear the Volare performance out of the blue. It's in my top 10 all time favourite ESC songs.

Got a big, goofy grin when we asked her if she was a Käseweiller. Sadly, I only caught the tail end of it, rather than its full goofiness.

The image features a Rottweiler dog lying on a wicker chair with a blue cushion. The dog has a black and tan coat, with distinctive markings on its face, chest, and paws. It is wearing a collar with a metal buckle and a leash attached. The dog is looking to the side, with its mouth slightly open, and appears relaxed. Next to the dog, there is a large bone, likely a chew toy, resting on the cushion. The background shows a lush green tree, indicating an outdoor setting, possibly a porch or patio. The chair is made of brown wicker, and the cushion is blue with a white trim. The overall scene is calm and serene, with the dog as the focal point.

Siempre es un buen día para escuchar al enorme José Larralde. Acá en un programa de 1995, con Alberto Badía, en una entrevista en la que recuerda a Jorge Cafrune (otro imprescindible de la canción popular rioplatense), cuenta sus comienzos como cantor en el Festival de Cosquín, comparte algunos pareceres acerca de la música y la cultura argentina, y canta tres temas del disco que había sacado por aquel entonces: las milongas "Como quien mira una espera" (que dio nombre al álbum) y "Fogonera" y el tango "Afiche", de Atilio Stapone y Homero Expósito.

"Fogonera" tiene una gran letra, alusiva a aquellos tiempos de la década del noventa (con muchas resonancias en este lamentable presente), que remata su estribillo con aquello de "qué grande se ha hecho la franja / entre el arriba y abajo, / unos se van pal' Miami / y otros se van pal carajo".
