I ain’t watching it, because of Israels participation.
It’s such a shame as I love the competition usually. but its such a fucking fetid weeping sore on the face of the competition that I can’t do it. pure genocide washing of a rightwing ethno fascist state. disgusting.

They were banned. There is a whole thing about why Russia is banned while Israel is not. I don’t have the facts, but comes down to something about membership in EBU (the european broadcasting union).
So Israel is a member of the European Broadcasting Union?
EBU membership is open to broadcasters in the ITU Europe region, which is based on telecom infrastructure (particularly the telegraph cables of the British Empire) rather than geography or politics. As such Europe is the continent + North Africa + the Levant.

I’d like to boycott them but I wouldn’t watch it either way.
pretend to have a moral backbone while doing what you would normally be doing anyway. it’s brownie points for nothing bro!
Morrocanoil is sponsoring it for a few years now.
Moroccanoil is an Israeli cosmetics company headquartered in New York City
I think the rules for participation need to include being from a legitimate state
Moroccanoil is the main sponsor. Switzerland is the host country this year and it is even hosted in the city of the first Zionist congress. Israel is allowed to participate despite perpetrating a genocide.
Do we need any other reason not to watch it?
