MODERATORS
Jesus Christ, yes please!
Why are non-European countries even allowed to participate?
All countries associated with the European Broacast Union can participate.
Brazil, Peru, Japan, India, and even China and the US could participate too.
Russia and Lybia used to be part of the EBU but they were suspended. They know what they did.
Theoretically yes, but associated members (in contrast to full members) still need to be approved on a case by case basis.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eurovision_Song_Contest#Participation
Because Australia were mega fans, so they invited us :3
Eurovision is organised by the European Broadcasting Union, which includes basically all countries in the European Broadcasting Area (basically Europe + all of the Mediterranean). Those include Morocco, Tunisia, Egypt, Israel, Armenia, etc. They have always been allowed to participate. Australia is an outlier. They just got a special invitation.
Are we going to be called anti-Semitic?
Aren’t we anyways? Who cares at this point. Nazi, antisemitic… Russophobe. I’ve been all of these lol. I’ve even been called a homophobe even tho I am literally gay.
This is genius!
