Yea I get it, people wanted Jann. Yes, I get it, things probably have been corrupt. But in all honesty, I simply feel bad for Blanka. She did her best and all the comments, everything tends to look a lot like bullying in all the worst way. I am so sorry for her. I don’t know how she is about to really get through that shit right now.
I am - seriously - hardly pissed at what people write about her. Because, if it’s not your taste, fine. If you think she cannot sing, fine. But commenting real rude stuff that goes beyond putting out some criticism is simply not fair. I almost got the shivers reading some of the comments under the video of the official ESC channel. I could vomit reading all of that. Really. Do people understand what words can actually lead to, what power they have? I bet no.

People feel real strong when they're behind a screen/keyboard. I've read tweets, comments etc that basically equate to death threats. It's digusting and people really need to wind their necks in and get some perspective.
If she is clever she should ignore all that. Some eurofans are toxic and get easily aggressive but most people who watch Eurovision are not like that.
Her entry is probably not the best and i guess she is not the best singer out there but people shouldn't react like Jann was great because his performance was also a mess. Yes he had more potential (and in a only t/v semifinal he would qualify easily i guess) but he wasn't good either.

I hope Blanka's record label has its SIM-card army ready in the entire Europe and the rest of the world for Blanka's Eurovision domination. The world is not ready for Blanka's sexeehhhh looks, sultraaayyyy voice and godleeeyyy dance moves.

Death threats? Lol some stans are just too much...
I'm not here for either Blanka or Jann as I find both of their entries to suck in different ways, although I must agree that the Polish selection was fishy.
If someone was offended by my earlier comment it was more how I think this entry comes across and not an actual comment about Bianka as a person (which I obviously don't know). People need to relax a bit though from both camps, obviously death threats and what not is wrong, but being all over-sensitive is too, we need to be able to laugh at this pathetic entry as well and if someone likes it, then good for them too, it's just a matter of different taste in the end of the day.
For me, like I'm all here for a good "yass queen slay slutbop" moment, the problem is that this song is so basic, generic and juvenile that it has no slayness to give and Blanka can't sell it for sh*t either.

Shit got real, when official YT channel turned off comments for a while.

Saddest thing is EBU can't/won't interfere, as choice of entry is made according to each broadcaster.

Well, whenever I remembered Jann's performance, I am reminded of Melovin, which is also a dark and charismatic queer performer (Melovin came out in 2021 if this also helps), hence I'm not that worried about his chances if he did represent.
I guess not
Instead they let upload the live performance on ESC official YT page! And the Polish are ranting through the roof as expected...Likes ratio atm - 1700 to 9400. Like, what did they expect?
Can't believe that TVP won't do anything about this...

Because they are public, state-funded broadcaster and they should play fair or be transparent, at least.
Playing fair and transparent when they told the jury how to vote….
Well, as I said, they didn't think it would blow up in their faces. Logically, they need to clean up somehow. What's their defence strategy like, keen to see that.
