Artists competing in this year’s Eurovision Song Contest will only be allowed to display flags from their home country.

    But they have no problem with the flag of a country that kills dozens, hundreds of people, right? What a bunch of morons.

      Tens or hundreds of thousands and still counting. But it is the gays that are the problem, apparently, not those who commit genocide.

      All flags except the flag of the country they represent seems to be banned:

      Participants are also barred from holding flags to express solidarity with other countries such as Ukraine, Palestine, or Israel.

        Yeah, it’s a shitty thing to do, but it’s not the first time for the EU.

        That are confirmed. The real numbers are much higher as there is thousands of people who are “missing”. Also if an entire family gets annihilated there is sometimes no one left to report the people as missing.

            Oh, this, of course. There’s so much going on in the world and in my country that it’s slipped from my mind.

              I think they still don’t have a peace treaty, but at the moment no active fighting
