My main issue with Sweden winning honestly isn't even about the song, it's the fact that the professional jury consistently rewards non-offensive pop music and punishes entries that are even slightly out there. Sweden just happens to be very good at making non-offensive pop music, which is why they win the jury vote so often.
The problem with that is that it encourages countries to send in non-offensive pop music in order to appeal to the professional jury, most of which will be very mediocre and boring to watch. If the people didn't get a vote, we wouldn't see entries like Finland or Croatia, and that's bullshit! Those kinds of performances are what people watch eurovision for! Nobody wants to see a non-offensive pop music contest. We want originality! We want fun! We want the professional jury to go fuck themselves!
Anyway cha cha cha should have won and I will die on this hill

this was a shadow win at best:
- the fact that it was a jury win and the public didn’t want this
- they kept mentioning abba’s 50th anniversary, which lowkey made this seem planned
- this was the second highest number of televotes ever received and still the jury votes solved this
- the points were nowhere near Loreen’s score with ”euphoria” …THIS WAS ABOUT LESS THAN 60 POINTS
- you could literally hear the audience chanting for ”cha cha cha” and käärijä
- in conclusion: i’m a pissed off fin and i thought käärijä deserved to win

The ukrainian singer tina karol will perform in the final.
The last time she set foot on eurovision stage, finland won.
In the same year, a returning winner was representing sweden and was number one in the odds and predicted to win.
There is no way around it folks, käärijä sweep is coming, like to charge reblog to cast

the more i think about it the more i'm actually floored by the audacity of switzerland's entry like imagine there's been an actual war going on in your country for close to a year and a half and some twink from a historically constitutionally neutral and also extremely rich and safe country enters a musical competition and sings some ugly little song being like "i don't wanna be a soldier :(((" well fuck you boy who would your swiss ass even fucking fight? tax evaders? and with a swiss army knife maybe? die.

UK unironically continuously pushing UK memes and throwing in a "Don't worry, we'll explain to you later" to the actuallly Ukranian host like they're not straight up admitting they don't give a fuck about representing Ukraine.

today the russian ambassador in Poland was supposed to lay flowers at the Soviet Military Cementary in Warsaw, so this is what had been prepared for him to see before the entrance:

from what i understand, he laid the flowers before this whole installation, without even entering the cementery.
