Post-modernist 'European Culture'.

It's the result of the successful attack on actual European culture by the anti-European USSR and USA.

The post WWII governments of occupied Europe, which were essentially bitches of the foreign governments that installed them, have, ever since, been promoting a newly mandatory global ideology:

If it's not perverted, primitive, ugly, stupid or insane, or, preferably, all of the above, then it may not be promoted/celebrated.

What the fuck?

The article is about who won Eurovision this year. Eurovision isn't anti-European USSR or USA. Russia has, in the past, participated. And its about as far from USA culture as any modern European institution ... unless not shooting each other or getting healthcare without the government saying which life saving procedures are murder are institutions.

Sorry.

I try to include too much contextual information and so end up writing in run-on sentences, which, unfortunately, can obscure my meaning.

I'm not saying that 'Eurovision is anti-European USSR or USA' (though it is the first, but that's not the main point of the comment above).

I'm saying that the sad state of current 'European Culture' (as exemplified by the winner of Eurovision),
results from that the post-WWII governments and establishments of Europe
(which was divided and occupied by the anti-European USSR and USA)
fell over each other to virtue-signal (to the occupiers) how,
since the Nazis liked a certain kind of 'Positive'? art, they hated it,
and since the Nazis hated what they called 'Degenerate Art',
it now had to be promoted as the culmination of excellence.

So, since, and still today ...
'if it's not perverted, primitive, ugly, stupid or insane, or, preferably, all of the above [i.e. 'Degenerate'],
then it may not be promoted/celebrated'.

The song has a rap break, which you could possibly accuse of being low art, but even those are punctuated at each phrase with that big sound of full orchestral strings. It's got much bigger orchestral and operatic influences than most entries.

What is it about this entry that's particularly "degenerate art" per Nazis than the others?

Eurovision has Turkey, Israel, Azerbaijan, etc., (Yemen not available?),
as 'Europeans'(!), singing inane cookie-cutter Mc-songs, in US-English,
and the more perverted/degenerate the contestant, the more likely to win,
and this now is ... ta-dah ... 'European Culture'?!
