remember, if someone correctly points out your relationship to colonisation as a settler in the US or Australia or what have you, it's IMPERATIVE you bring up some personal ancestry that magically makes you not a settler anymore. extra points if it's being irish or scottish.
like come on though, you're not going to magically change the past by being related to the right people, you're going to change it by getting rid of colonialism in the here and now

people need to stop acting like “discussing comphet” and “being biphobic” are mutually exclusive

The whole situation is so interesting to me, because all things being equal, I think Joost should have heeded the calls for a boycott. I don't think anybody should have participated in this year's Eurovision. Moreover, his justification that he was just one person, one artist, and couldn't make much of a difference in the grand scheme of things is... bad. The "I'm just one person" defence isn't good enough in situations like these.
However, ironically, the fact that he was "just one person" who actively stood against the Israeli delegation and was ultimately booted for it (because let's be honest: there's no way in hell a ✨ threatening gesture ✨ would have gotten the Netherlands disqualified without the added rabble Joost was rousing about Israel's presence at the contest) was what turned hordes of people against the ESC—including past participants. He might not be a "world leader", as he said, but he was able to pull back the final curtain on the contest in a very pivotal way.
So, should he have participated in the first place? As I said, no, I don't think he should have. However, did he ultimately use his participation for good in a capacity that not even he might have anticipated? Yes, I believe so.
Ultimately, I'm sure his parents are very proud of him.
“But what if Joost made the camerawoman feel ✨unsafe✨? 🥺” people who violate other people’s consent should feel unsafe, actually

Also, had the genders been reversed, Joost would have still received blame and been disqualified… and it would have been a lot harder for the EBU to frame the whole thing as, “Perhaps one of the anti-Zionists did a Violence Against Women”. they would have had less room to obfuscate.

the gofundmes for helping people get out of Palestine fill me with rage because AT BEST what we're doing is helping people be displaced in the safest way available to them that is the most profitable to a) corrupt Egyptian officials and b) gofundme itself. I'm so fucking furious that this is what it's come to. the world has failed to stop the Zionist genocide machine so profoundly that donating to gofundmes that will ultimately line the pockets of corrupt officials and technocrats is the most effective way to save the lives of Palestinians. Palestinians are right to never forgive. Inshallah Palestine will be free and Israel's genocidal state will perish in this lifetime. Donate to Gaza Funds. Whatever you can spare.
