While riding home from the airport Sunday night, I scanned some headlines on the Breitbart website, reading them aloud. Has the world lost its mind? There was the confirmation in plain sight.
One headline screamed: “WOKE FAIL: IRISH EUROVISION VOTERS AWARDED ISRAEL SECOND-MOST POINTS, DESPITE BAMBIE THUG PROTESTS.”

The article tells us that Bambie Thug, described as “non-binary” and an “occultist Eurovision contestant” who is militantly anti-Israel, was angered because he (or she—I’m having a hard time figuring out which after reading “their” bio) finished behind Israel’s Eden Golan in the competition (fifth and sixth respectively).
Worse still, Golan received more Irish votes than Thug, actually the second-most votes of all Eurovision performers among Irish voters. It appears Thug’s anti-Israel activism did not resonate with the nation.
As for the Eurovision contest itself, Golan required a large police escort due to enraged protests and threats from the residents of Malmö, Sweden, where the event was held.
But that’s not because the Swedes are, in general, so pro-Palestinian. It’s because Malmö is “one of the most Muslim-populated cities in Sweden and Western Europe,” with “around 20% of its residents adhering to Islam,” (according to Wikipedia).
