A healthy chunk of the contestants aren't even members. I always wonder how Israel, Australia, Armenia, Azerbaijan among many others, managed to get in at all.

Eurovision is not actually about Europe (nor, certainly, about Europeans, which should be one and the same).

As often happens, under the guise of being a 'European' thing, it's actually an anti-European thing.

It's an extension of that same weird transnational woketardation also plaguing the USA, and it's against all nations, societies, citizens, history, culture, etc.

It seeks a world of slave-like drone 'consumers' without any history, culture, loyalty, or even identity ... besides assorted corporate-brand allegiances of course.

Consider that Eurovision banned not just Russia but also the European flag and welcomed Israel(?), and its flag, as it's committing fucking genocide?!

I would watch an alternative show with literally just European folk music.

Seriously?

I don't know if many of us would.

To be interesting, such a competition would have to be very innovative, not traditional, even if (especially if?) initially based on but then mixing up the various styles and themes of European folk music.

Yeah, most people probably wouldn't but I just really love folk music.
