I want to give my opinion about Luca's post, I agree with him that it seems there are countries from group A and group B. I don't know but I have the feeling that if Montenegro's song would have been sent by Sweden, France or UK (just giving some random examples), they would probably have qualified.
As I said before, it seems there are people that see the name of the country and they are not aimed to listen to that country and therefore not to vote it, and this situation could be extended not only to the Balkan countries but also to other countries Like Georgia, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Turkey or Latvia among others... I want to remark that this is my opinion in a general way, I'm not pointing to anyone.
However I can put myself in some underrated countries' shoes, who usually try to find something different and work hard on that, when they see that "strong" countries usually send the first song they see in their National charts top10 without working hard at all, however that's also accepted cause they are not breaking the rules at all, but "weak" countries could feel frustrated too.
But what it's intolerable is trying to creat a bloc voting as a protest, which it goes against the rules and you're trying to manipulate people to do so. If we are usually complaining about bloc voting at Eurovision, why we want to bring in to ESCT then? That's pointless.
If you want to protest about being underrated countries, withdrawing for one edition at the same time of several countries is a good idea, cause it's not against the rules, cause you have right to do it. But let's try not to devirtualize the contest, cause this contest is about finding out new music, artists or bands throughout Europe and enjoy with that, it's not about voting our neighbours or voting because of pity. There are always some ROBBERIES OR INJUSTICES, always, but not only in ESCT, also in Eurovision or Lucavision.
The worst of all this drama is that maybe some Balkan countries could be affected in future editions due to Luca's comment, but as far as I know, any of them support this idea and I wouldn't Like to see them affected in future editions by not being voted because of this drama, specially Luca who I think he will be the most disadvantaged country in this scenario.
