Good on you!

Don’t let a little genocide keep you from enjoying your singalong.

Israel has ruined #Eurovision for all the rest of us.
@KimSJ @pellechristensen They’ve ruined a few far more important things too… like the lives of millions of Palestinians.
@aral
indeed. I wasn’t intending to minimise or ignore the wider effects of Israel’s bellicosity, but it has leveraged Eurovision as a propaganda win, and it’s important to counter that.
@KimSJ I know you weren’t :)
@pellechristensen Wish they’d have gotten booed and had a few expletives thrown their way also so you could at least use integers.

@aral I fully expect right-wing campaigns to ensure viewer numbers don't slump.

The regular fans are pretty much over it.

Sadly, it's basically impossible to convince people to abandon the circus. Ask how do I know. The ethical fortitude of people in general has fallen to historic lows, and the fact that most pleasures in life directly finance the harm of many is intentionally ignored by most - just ask anyone trying to convince the HP fandom
@aral @Migueldeicaza I didn’t watch it until Nemo won, and I’m glad that they’re boycotting, too bad it’s not the official Swiss stance…
