@KaddiCosplay In der Juries sitzen halt auch Musiker:innen, die vielleicht mal eng zusammengearbeitet haben oder so - zumindest im ehemaligen Jugoslawien :D Klar, dass da Punkte gern mal nah gehen. Oder halt auch, weil sie den Inhalt der Lieder verstehen.
This is specifically what Muslims, Albanians and other minorities from the Balkans were worried about ever since the situation in the Ukraine escalated. My heart is breaking even more.
@welt Also schärfen wir lieber weiter gesellschaftliche Fronten, anstatt uns endlich mit einer anständigen Reform des Gesundheitssystems zu befassen, die auch vor Corona schon über-fällig war?

Check what NGOs help refugees right now. Donate or volunteer, if you can.
And I know the world can be a lot at this time. And Ukraine is urgent, but by far not the only place in need.
Still, take care. I hope all of us get to witness a better tomorrow. xx
Checklist to not go numb or crazy:
- Drink enough water
- Talk about thing happening directly in your vicinity
- turn off your phone before you go to sleep so you disable yourself from checking the news
- get sleep
- talk to you loved ones
"The first casualty of war is truth" (H. Johnson)
It's fine to be scared, worried and confused.
What matters now is to not fall for narratives aiming at war acceptance. To offer the aid to the population that's suffering.
