Just another day for the genocide song contest
Fuck genociders. Fuck Israel.
How the hell can you cheer and celebrate when you know your country is killing and starving a race of people?
Because they’re Zionists?
That’s like asking how a Nazi can standby while Jews died.
Dehumanization and Supremacy
- Cognitive dissonance
- “They deserve it” mentality
- For the “greater” “good”
You can see the excuses made for Iraq, they will mirror Palestine.
While the lyrics of this year’s song, “New Day Will Rise,” don’t make reference to any events in particular, Galia Press-Barnathan, a professor of international relations at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, says the message is nevertheless clear.
“You can’t ban a personal story from a competition,” she told NBC News in a Zoom interview earlier this month. “So you really get two for one,” she said, with a talented singer performing what sounds like “an old French chanson” paired with a story that makes clear the song is actually about “both a personal trauma and a national trauma, and how you sort of come out of this.”
Yeah, you told us not to make it political, but we figured we’d flagrantly worm our way around the intent of it anyways. Gross.
You can’t ban a personal story from a competition,” she told NBC News in a Zoom interview earlier this month.
Yes you can. Nobody talks about whether Russia would send a song that is “personal”. The country is in gross violation of international law and that is the reason for the ban. It is completely irrelevant what the song is about. The country is the problem and the song is presented as an entry for the country.
It shouldn’t matter what the lyrics are about to begin with as Israel should not be allowed to participate while committing some of the most heinous crimes against humanity.
They’re not being neutral if they are banning flags
Man, if you piss off the Swiss, you know you fucked up.
The Swiss have very strict rules. Not hard to piss them off.
