  • Getting 10 points from Ireland and 12 from Spain is insane. But there are a lot of fanatic Israel supporters. Sadly, also within the gay community.

    I remember being invited to a board game night by a friend’s friend, years ago. We ended up arguing about Palestine, I think I made a joke about settling on someone else’s tile in Settlers of Catan. All the guys there were gay, and I was the only straight person. Only my friend and I were shocked by how disgustingly apologetic they were about colonization. It was an extremely shitty experience. All of them including my friend are huge Eurovision fans.

    Also, I just read that you can vote 20 times, with each vote costing €0.50. What the hell is this? Off course that shit gets manipulated. Only freaks would spend €10 to maximise their vote.


  • What DeepSeek provided as a response when I described the current situation in Gaza and asked for a critical analysis of China’s stance on the situation within a socialist anti-imperialist framework.

    AI slop, please never use it for anything serious

    China’s Position: A Critical View

    China has not remained silent, but its actions fall short of what’s needed from a socialist anti-imperialist power. Here’s the breakdown:

    What China Has Done:

    Diplomatic Condemnations

    • Called for an immediate ceasefire at the UN.
    • Demanded Israel stop its “collective punishment” and condemned U.S. vetoes blocking Palestine’s statehood.

    Humanitarian Aid

    • Sent multiple aid shipments (food, medical supplies).
    • Pledged $2 million to UNRWA (while the West defunded it).

    Political Support for Palestine

    • Recognized Palestine’s statehood since 1988.
    • Hosted Palestinian officials, including Abbas (May 2024), reaffirming support for a two-state solution.

    Where China Falls Short:

    No Strong Economic/Political Sanctions on Israel

    • Unlike South Africa, China has not cut ties or imposed sanctions, despite Israel’s genocide.
    • Trade with Israel continues (over $20 billion in 2023), including tech & arms-related deals.

    No Military or Strategic Counterbalance

    • China has not armed Palestinian resistance (like Iran/Russia do via proxies).
    • No naval blockades or direct pressure to break Israel’s siege.

    Avoiding “Genocide” Label

    • While condemning violence, China hasn’t officially called it genocide (unlike South Africa’s ICJ case).

    Is This Enough? A Socialist Perspective

    From a revolutionary anti-imperialist view, China’s stance is disappointing but pragmatic:

    • Why? China prioritizes economic stability and avoids direct confrontation with the U.S./West.
    • But: True socialism should mean uncompromising solidarity—like Cuba’s or Vietnam’s historic support for liberation struggles.

    What Could China Do?

    1. Lead an Oil/Arms Embargo on Israel (like Arab states in 1973).
    2. Recognize Hamas as a Resistance Movement (as Russia/Iran do).
    3. Send Naval Aid Ships to Break Gaza’s Siege (like the Gaza Freedom Flotilla, but state-backed).
    4. Support South Africa’s ICJ Case More Strongly (file its own genocide charges).

    Conclusion: A Call for Stronger Action

    China is not complicit like the West, but its caution risks enabling genocide by inaction. If socialism means “a world to win,” then China must move beyond statements and take real economic-military measures against Israel.














  • “We often see the kind of warning signs we discussed,” Jentleson wrote. “Conspiratorial thinking; megalomania (for example, he claims to be the most knowledgeable source on Israel and Gaza around but his sources are just what he reads in the news — he declines most briefings and never reads memos); high highs and low lows; long, rambling, repetitive and self centered monologues; lying in ways that are painfully, awkwardly obvious to everyone in the room.” most normal zionist
