Maybe if she admitted to being a she, and didn’t literally stand there in the trans bikini with a defiled Irish flag with “Crown the Witch” inked on it, I would let it pass…
And sure, it’s all an act (as is very obvious from that interview I linked), but unlike Finland, it’s not even good. It’s fully intended to piss off as many people back home in Ireland as possible (successfully, I might add), but unlike Slovenia, which also did an act/song about a witch, I would call it more just shit, than subversive…
Even the extremely gay Australian Eurovision host thought it went too far, which says a lot.
I think the difference is that Finland has a history with this sort of… “Subversive” subculture, even before Lordi. Ireland does not.
But really I just hate anyone who tries to force those around them to use their bullshit “no -binary” pronouns, so maybe that plays into my dislike more than almost anything else…
