Stolen from Mastodon.

Don't stop boycotting, but it may be a factor in what we saw today, at the very least it's helping the Israeli government's advertising to be more effective. ESC really needs to do something (ideally ban Israel) because Israel has made Eurovision even more explicitly political than it was before.

Another aspect is that the votes of those who don't vote for israel spread over the wide diverse field of the remaining contestants.

Exactly that. Even someone who supports their war should want to kick them out of the competition for ruining the voting.
