Let Ukraine win again so at least they get to win something and everyone can feel good like last time.

The "music" at Eurovison is secondary to whatever Uber "Progressive" agenda they're shoving down everyone's throats that year. What started as a lighthearted song contest has been suffocated under a glittering avalanche of LGBT propaganda, political pandering, and bizarre, sometimes demonic performances that seem less about talent and more about how much shock value can be crammed into three minutes.
Ooh and speaking of "surprises," what could possibly top last year's Irish entry, which looked like a SATANIC ritual choreographed by a Pride parade committee.

Uber?
No spoiler alerts, oh waits, hints, translations today?
Disappointing.
Anyway, don’t get so triggered and hysterical about this event. You get very upset easily. Just a bit of silliness and fun.

Spot on - Eurovision is now just a fruity, hyper-politicized spectacle where "singing" takes a backseat to see who can be the most "fabulous" (not in a good way). And yeah, last year’s Irish entry officially crossed the line to full-blown goat-worshipping cabaret.

Well Jim I am shocked that you would be so supportive of the relentless force-feeding of explicit-LGBT propaganda, disguised as some organic artistic evolution, year after year!
Then again, as the same person who believes that the world is overpopulated, being a cheerleader for a movement that, by definition, leads to fewer children, perhaps I shouldn't be so shocked.

Who cares. Never watched it. Some of those against it certainly watch it.

It seems very simple to shove stuff down your throat. Have you considered not watching it, or at least watching it without your gob wide open?
Fighto!
Good luck to them. Pop is not my thing usually, but millions do love their Eurovision and hold Eurovision parties around the world.
Scary stuff. I guess you must have pulled the blankets up when this fearsome and demonic sight appeared.

Why so many down votes? It worked in 2022 when they were gifted the win to boost morale and show support. They need it more than ever now.

I put it on last year via VPN to show my Japanese family what I thought would be an european institution. It's always been tongue-in-cheek and camp, but it no longer resembles the family viewing that it used to be. Its a relic of a by-gone age when Europe was united, and it has been taken over by the current trend of making everything gay. It will be gone within a decade. Shocks and suprises only work when there is some sense of normality to contrast with.

Never the same without Terry Wogan's irreverent hosting. With his wry smile and wit, he made it clear it was nowhere near meant to be taken seriously

Why is it still called Eurovision when any country can enter it? Australia is one of the countries that enters. Hopefully Japan has a good singer this year. If so, I think Japan can win it as J-POP is booming around the world now.

What a ray of sunshine you must be to live with.
