Is the contest usually this big of a shit show? I never hear anything about it other than it’s going on until this year where it seems that Israel is being an annoying brat and pissing off every contestant and fan for no reason lol
It's always been a joke. Last time Ukraine pity won and praised Azov during their acceptance speech
Nope. This year's was particularly shitty. Abuse allegations, a disqualification, an announcer (?) refusing to even say Isntrael's name to award them points, and a contestant getting booed off stage.
Also people taking about vote manipulations but those are rumors atm.
I mean, genocide is an extraordinary crime, extraordinary treatment of the genocidaire is par for the course. Russia and Belorussia got booted out for much less...
Usually it's mild local controversies, but basically everyone know it's in fact a political popularity contest, and the one where the votes are also set up, so it become like this when there is international turmoil in Europe.
Think of it as a milder version of: "r/Europe: a musical"
Simmons, Draiman and Sharon Osbourne are Jewish, by the way, although I'm sure that's just a coincidence. /s
Elaborate what you mean by this, please. Because as it stands it just sounds to me like you're conflating being a comfortable rich asshole and a Zionist with just being Jewish, which is an antisemitic dogwhistle.
I saw the sarcasm tag, but to my eyes it was still ambiguous enough that I didn't know whether this was making fun of chud talking points, or repeating them. Since it was ambiguous, I asked for clarification, just to make sure we're all on the same page.
What need is for shorthand with /s, ye de'il?
Don't clutch your pearls, it's just a small reminder that /s here means "sarcasm"...
I really don't think anybody had to do any hunting in this case.
It doesn't seem like you were trying to be antisemitic or anything upon further inspection, but the phrasing and usage of the sarcasm tag is extremely ambiguous if not semantically incorrect. It initially reads as if "although I'm sure that's just a coincidence" was specifically the part that the sarcasm is applied to, in which case it'd just be a blatantly antisemitic statement.
It's a simple misunderstanding really, but this is the sort of situation where you should just edit the wording of your comment for clarity, rather than try to defend it and argue with people who are just trying to call out antisemitism when they see it.
Evidence that Reddit was used for vote manipulation for Israel.
Respect for any anti-zionist jew, going against the flow of zionazism must be brutal.
