Beside the fact that, to tell the truth, Eurovision has been for years an heavily politicized festival, I totally agree with fears related to Ukraine.

Who cares about Eurovision lol? Only people with no jobs and old retired people who has nothing better to do than watching t.v. all night. Time is the most valuable thing which you can't buy and i don't like the idea to throw it away while watching goddamn Eurovision.

There are lots of people that watch Eurovision and they aren't few, millions of people watch it, but i don't like it too (like you), most of the votes are manipulated and i don't like the organization itself, i just check on the news who won Smiley

The horrible thing is the next Eurovision will be conducted in Ukraine. As we all know it is not safe place. Ukrainian fascists could commit very well premeditated terroristic act but Ukraine will have another reason to blame Russia.
You personally have any visited in Ukraine? You write about the Nazis, it is strange but Ukrainian people do not see them in Ukraine. About them write only Russian bots Trolls. Wink

Sadly, bitcoin community is full of anti-western conspirtards, shills and just fringe elements. This all makes a bad PR for bitcoin, which in some minds is still associated with drugs, hackers and other ugly things.

I absolutely agree with you. I wasn't watching Eurovision even once in my life. There are always many other things to do which are more entertaining to say the least. And of course you can learn something instead of watching Eurovision from where you can learn nothing.

Tell that to Oles Buzina - a Ukrainian journalist killed in Ukraine last year for his protesting against ultra-nationalism and for refusing to write hit-articles on US orders.
I visited Ukraine shortly before the coup and seen some of the budding ultra-nationalism...

The biggest threat for Ukraine in the coming months is the rampant banditism - the exact type that followed the civil war and the Polish intervention of 1918 - the history repeats itself. Back then it was called "mahnovshina".

EDIT:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zhmlEuSf07o
Today's march of the Nazis before Rada today. Comprised of Right Sector and punisher battalion Azov (the one that took SS Galicina battalion emblem for its own)



And back to the topic of EV.

xht, your fears are unfounded for another reason. Ukraine is bankrupt. EV is a very expensive undertaking. It would cost about $40 million, which Ukraine does not have. (By the way, when the World Football Championship was conducted in Ukraine together with Poland, Ukraine spent back then over $10 billion - feel the difference, so to speak.) Ukrainian regime already said that EV can be handed over to some other country, but on one condition - only those singers (from Russia), who are against Crimea's reunification with Russia must be allowed to participate (in violation of the non-political rule of EV).

So, next year, even if Ukraine still exists as a state in its present form (which I doubt), EV will not be conducted there.

The whole of "Ukraine winning EV" was a spectacle to shitfront Russia (as Austrian PM once put it).

“Dark times lie ahead of us and there will be a time when we must choose between what is easy and what is right.”
“We are only as strong as we are united, as weak as we are divided.”
“It is important to fight and fight again, and keep fighting, for only then can evil be kept at bay, though never quite eradicated.”
