Vote for one of the favourites to win. If you dont live in a participating countries then you can vote in The Rest of the World group introduced last year. That voting group counts as one country.

https://eurovision.tv/vote

Each country hands out 1-8, 10 and 12 points. The act with the most votes in a country get 12 points, the second most popular act get 10 points and so forth.

The top acts in the betting:

Croatia winning is the most likely scenario so support their act if you really wanna resist Israel.

It is countries that compete in Eurovision. An act is the chosen representative though, like in sports.

Didn't they not invite Russia because of Ukraine?

Can't they just do the same for Israel?

That person can get fucked. It's not about her ethnicity, it's about the actions of the country she's there to represent. If she doesn't support it she's free to refuse to represent them, or to speak out against them on stage. Instead, from what I hear she's planning to perform a propaganda song.

It's a lot easier to silence criticism when you pretend people hate you for who you are instead of what you're doing.

Especially when the most powerful government on the planet plays along with your bullshit.

I don't know man. I'm iffy on that level of protest against an individual for a singing contest.

I've never watched Eurovision so I might be ignorant on the level of national representation it represents. Like, I can understand protesting an Olympic team during Olympics (Russia for example). Should I be seeing this in the same manner? Maybe that's where my disconnect is.

And that's correct. However, someone specifically there to represent the country (and by extension, its government) is very different from a random civilian just trying to live their life.

You've misunderstood both the point of and the target of the protest.

It is a song Contest and it is pretty much the same thing as an athlete going to the Olympics, yeah. And the winning country gets to host the next edition of the Contest.

Is the point to increase Eurovision engagement as opposed to anything real or relevant? I personally think this is an ineffective route at best.

Dont represent your country if you dont want to be seen supporting the genocide they are committing

Belgium stopped the whole airing on television because of Israel.

Meanwhile Israel is now the second most likely winner on most betting sites.

Less than 75% of Israel is Jewish and there are almost 20% Muslims living in Israel. Id hate to think the mere act of protesting Israels actions in Gaza is anti-semetic in of itself. I imagine the situation could easily attract that type though.

OP is slightly wrong when it comes to the voting. There are two parts to the voting. The fan votes and the judges votes.

Its possible a country could get 0 points from the fans vote and still win due to the judges vote. Its one of the reasons Im not keen on the voting as they spend half the night doing the judges votes then at the end oh and lets add the fan votes in a 5 minute segment which completely changes everything and devalues the whole voting spectacle imo.

Some of the loudest BUT GENOCIDE folks will then turn around and bend over backward to cape for the CCP. Or immediately clam up when you point out Ukraine or the increasing efforts to genocide trans people.
