But why did they get so many viewer points? I feel like the rich people are at fault
Israel has malware for phones that is unnoticeable on devices. They could easily make phones send in text message votes without the phone owners noticing. It’s a propaganda event they can’t afford to miss.
If you’re a pro-Israel viewer, there’s one country you can vote for
If you’re an anti-Israel viewer, there’s like 25 countries you can vote for, they’re not organized to put their votes behind any particular country.
They don’t have ranked choice voting in a song contest.
Generallt, it costs money to vote
notice how nobody that wins these things goes on to be famous? it’s almost as if: the “voting” is a fraud, because if that many people liked them, they’d listen to their music after the show.
Hopefully, by Israel spending money on propaganda and voting instead of bombs, on,y to draw more attention, instead.
The US and German tax payers pay for the bombs…
Propaganda is way, way, way cheaper than weapons though.
