For me the so called hardcore Eurovision fans in the arena and on social media have ruined Eurovision this year and made it political. I reckon if it was Palestine participating this year and not Israel, we would not be having this much outrage. As for the Israeli delegation harassing journalists and artist of other countries for saying free Palestine and stuff like, both sides should've been banned from this year for making it political instead of uniting people with music no matter their nationality and political beliefs. 

Let's not pretend people 'made it political' this year. The best host's joke so far was when they said "and of course, entirely non-political". I assume that was actually meant as a joke

Honestly very difficult situation. 
if Israel wins then everybody will talk about manipulation , true or not doesn’t matter. Clearly the next esc would be very problematic as no host (maybe Germany would take over for Israel) and many countries will withdraw. 
 

on the other hand not even sure I want Croatia to win. The song is ok, but nothing special, we probably can’t afford it and I could imagine the production would be embarrassing. Therefore let’s agree on Switzerland, Italy or France. 
 

 

i listened to a few seconds of the swiss song and that was enough for me.absolutely no way should that even make top 10.

I hope so  

 

Been my big favourite from the first time I heard it  

 

Especially if, outside of Israel getting the free war votes, the biggest challengers are Switzerland and France, which I found soooo....meh.

Yes France and Switzerland don’t do it for me, nothing special that we haven’t seen a million times before and neither are catchy enough to make me want to sing them as I go about my day

France could not have been less original if they tried,and Italy which actually would the best of the 3 for me is meh.

Either Croatia or Ireland winning out of the favorites is fine by me.Croatian one is a banger even if i die of cringe by his stage name,and ireland is,well i'm surprised but honestly i enjoyed that.

We can, just want to give money for something more meaningful and not partake in the current dark ages of Eurovision.

Ireland was missing from the flag parade today, something was going on apparently. It's hard to read this and not think about the earlier reports about delegation members of Ireland and Spain being harrassed by Israeli delegation members...
