since im unable to keep my mouth shut ever i want to throw my thoughts into the ring
I think he made a mistake. He knows he made a mistake, we all know he made a mistake. But I don't think it was malicious on his part, and it's useless of me to speculate, but honestly I think at best his actions were stupid and at worst ignorant. He always says he wishes to stay apolitical, and he definitely should learn to be better at it if he's not going to take a stance, but I don't think that or his actions yesterday make him a terrible person.
(i so wish he never would have gone to eurovision so this whole mess could have been avoided 💩)
But the thing about mistakes is people should be allowed to learn from them, and god forbid be forgiven for them if they deserve it. Stop supporting him if you want to, but I hope nobody wastes their energy on anon hate or on sending him hate/threats. That's not helpful. Condemning Käärijä does not help Palestine.
Him yelling "no war" on live TV sends a pretty clear message. It was a pretty risky move on his part and one that was definitely not approved by the people involved. I don't like that he went to eurovision this year and I don't approve of his actions yesterday, but in my eyes neither of those things suddenly make him a horrible person. I hope he grows from this and educates himself. And for better or for worse, we don't know his side of the story yet, we're all just building our own narratives about this. I hope he openly and honestly talks about what happened later, because I doubt he's able to at the moment.
Oh anon. Not to make it worse, but I was just thinking about all the things that happened exactly six months ago today:
floor/Bojan/Jan's boot threesome
Tampere CCC with all... that. Kissing and groping and hair ruffles, what have you
Bojan wearing the Bulbasaur beanie in the van and annoying the hell out of everyone (they were lucky not to be left on the side of the road in Loimaa is all I'm saying)
the perfect date with sauna and karaoke and discussion about fanfic (I mean, that's also my idea of a perfect date so I get you Bojan) where their relationship really moved to a deeper level iykwim
Bojan returned to insta because Jere told him to
What am I forgetting, that sure was a day, oh! SSOL came out! What else?
Headcanon territory: Jere watched esc final ccc for the very first time because Bojan made him to (I MEAN. He said in the Vogue interview that he had watched it for the first time only very recently so you cannot tell me it was not during NT). I am dying on this hill
