regarding the genocide song contest:

various past eurovision contestants are campaigning for the removal of israel and some national finalists are now choosing to boycott. olly alexander, who will rep the uk, condemned the palestinian genocide and was subsequently attacked by israeli media (in a blatant rule violation the ebu did nothing about)

slovenian broadcaster rtvslo is purportedly trying to negotiate the removal of israel

1000 artists from host country sweden are preparing to send an open letter to the ebu to ban israel; the swedish left wing has also called for israel to be removed immediately

iceland is officially threatening to boycott eurovision pending the removal of israel

word on the street is that if iceland does compete, it will send palestinian artist bashar murad who is openly anti-israel and has collabed with previous icelandic reps hatari, aka the guys who did this back in 2019

iceland is now leading in the odds whereas israel has been steadily dropping, suggesting that the bookies are aware israel is becoming increasingly unpopular

lastly, in a move so ridiculous i'm beginning to suspect eurovision is a figment of our collective imagination, israel is seemingly gearing up to enter eden golan, a moscow-based russian singer. while russia is still banned for terrorism.

if you're european: please contact your participating broadcaster and demand for the removal of israel, or try to contact your nation's selected artist to put pressure on the broadcaster. if you're swedish, please try contacting svt or authorities with security concerns regarding the inclusion of israel. if israel does enter eden golan, complain about her selection and ties to russia. and absolutely DO NOT vote on, watch or promote this show if israel does end up competing.

Hi guys some bad news.

Shahed will need to up her short term goal from 30k to 40k.

She will need to raise this amount by the end of this month.

This is due to the fact that what few gazan banks are left now after the destruction of the iof, they take full advantage of the dependence people of gaza have on them right now by demanding upto 30% in commission for the wire transfer of the money. @/fairuzfan has mentioned it before here in this post. Shahed only recently found out about this, and hadn't accounted for it before when she had originally set her goal.

This means that shahed will need upto $9k in addition to the actual fee she owes the travel coordinators (30k), as well as the 2.9% cut GFM takes for each transfer of funds.

I cannot put into words how much this has shaken me. Everyday i keep finding out new ways that the profiteers of this genocide have found to exploit and humiliate the kind and lovely people i have talked to here, and everyday i start to believe in the inherent good in people less and less. The depravity never seems to end

If you don't know her already, Shahed is a 21 year old who used to be a student at Al-azhar university before the genocide began. With both her parents having taken ill, she is the sole provider for her family right now, including her five siblings, youngest of whom is just a baby.

She currently trying to put together an evacuation fund for her younger sisters, who have hepatitis and are severely ill. They were recently removed from the clinic where they were getting treated for the same due to overcrowding and because there were more pressing cases to be attended to, likely because of the massacres that took place days ago and are still happening today.

Shahed is struggling to get them medicines, all while being sick and weak herself. Even after all this she still asks after me and if i am well since i told her i had recurring health issues, but she shouldn't have to be a nice person to fucking deserve help.

I don't know what to say that will convince you to take this seriously. Everyday i find out about some new atrocity the palestinian people are going through, Every single day they bleed in ways i never thought possible both literally and figuratively and the world still moves on like nothing is wrong.

All i see online is some new spectacle from the clowns that call themselves american politicians pervading every single conversation that happens here, and everyone seems to be so content to go along with the circus and let it overshadow all of the victims of the imperialism of america and its allies.

No i dont care which genocider comes to power there and no i domt care who you fucking vote for and no i domt care what corpo bullshit campaign line kamala fucking harris said today and how dunny it is to mock it i am sick of all of you letting that conversation take over what you should REALLY be focusing on and im TIRED of trying to present it to you as neatly and entertainingly as possible so that MAYBE you will find it in your heart to click the reblog button, if not actually donate.

But im still going to do it, because im scared you all will ignore my friend again when she needs your help so desperately.
