Eurovision Or Bust

Even FIFA don't seem quite as hypocritical as The Eurovision Song Contest - the most preachy of all major events when it comes to exclusivity for all, tolerance and promoting rights. They took a "principled" stand and immediately banned Russia from competing, to uphold "ideals of democracy" but maintain they are non-political (I guess upholding democracy isnt political?!) and wont ban Israel, because it's different. I guess the Palestinians have enough democracy? No-one is buying this, but Eurovision has deservedly set itself up for the biggest global protest against Israels mass-murder in Gaza yet. And Eurovision, stop waving that rainbow flag in my face whilst you enable genocide.
