San Marino, United Kingdom, Montenegro even Romania get propably more hate than Sweden.

But only Swedish videos, from pre-parties have the most dislikes, almost half of likes. In this I am sure.

Yeah maybe Russia is a compilcated story but is part of Eurovision family and has an entry!

I know, but Russia was also hated in the previous years, too. I don't know why Russians even dislike Julia.

I don't know, maybe he should do explanation and apology video, just like Mans said later that he would date man. :) The videos will keep leaking, they can't delete it permanently. Personaly, I think that Wiwibloggs could keep the video, because I don't find it bad, he hated only 4 songs, and had actually more nice words for other 39 entries.

It is not true, nothing from it, says girl who loves cheap Norway. Some of us are not biased from hate ,and we think this song is strong enough.

"It’s really sad that a country like Sweden who has done so much to sustain and improve the Eurovision brand is beaten for sending competent modern pop music year in year out. Actually shameful. And people need to get their heads around the fact music is subjective also.." Anqus Quinn from Wiwibloggs

??????????????????????????????????????????

1. i know how some pop diva fans can be shady (and i'm including myself out here) and it's no difference on their discourse with ingrosso's discourse tbh

2. i'm not talking about this forum, i'm talking about an esc group i'm part of and most of the comments are stuff like "someone with a weak song cannot badmouth people like that!!!!", "fast food music is so awful" and even "what do you expect from a swedish". sweden gets a lot of free hate for... being sweden, so yes there is a biased hate against sweden in some communities (no wonder why people are showing just the parts he is criticizing an entry)

3. i don't deny norway's entry is cheap though? i love it, the same way i like dance you off, but lbr. is it a bad song? no. is it getting a good position in the contest? sure. is this the best swedish entry? far from it, and we know sweden can do so much better than this

Ok, good. The problem is that people ( fandom) are comparing this entry to Loreen. Those fans just need to chill out, in general, it is not like Benjamin killed their whole family or something. Someone even sugested him to do suicide. :confused: He was just honest, and he wasn' really thinking at all. Sorry if I was harsh, It wasn't my intention, all this drama drives me crazy, and I really hate that the things are going like this.

i don't have a problem with him in the video tbh (i don't necessarily agree with his opinions tho). he was asked about his opinion and he was sincere about it. it's not like he is depreciating any style of music because he dislikes it as some contestants did it before *cough cough*

Yeah, and I have said that I had same reaction to Hungary when I heard it for the first time, he said he doesn't listen to rock music that much, and I am same kind of type, I love pop the most, but after I listened Hungary few more times, I started to adore that song, it is so powerful, energetic, beautiful, I put it even in my top 10. And most of his reactins were actually some of the reactions from fans to the same songs ( as we all agreed here that Lie To Me sounds like Talk Dirty To Me, even if it is good song, and Benjamin agreed it is good, and that Mikolas is great performer.) I know he was too honest, but I also think he shouldn't be honest, because all his reactions were misinterpreted now. Basically, now all those hardcore haters hate him even more. But I think this hatred is only coming from people who already hated him from the beginning, I liked him, and I like him now, I don't care about his reactions, more about his song and performance.

And they sugested him to commit suicide is awful just- just to all people know, apparently, his Swedish colleague, Avicii, commited suicide because of pressure. People are acting like animals, even Benjamin has feelings, and he is put under hugee pressure from the beginning, apart from this video today.

i agree!!! and people putting his reaction to hungary as a bad reaction but it's a completely normal one??? i know plenty of people who had and would have the same reaction (actually i think most people would have it), and it's a song in my top 15. i share the same opinion about mikolas as well, and the song is in my top 6. people are just saying he shouldn't be that honest because he is a public person and he is influent right now but nahhh i don't wanna see anyone pretending to like something

Also, both songs are in my top 10. :) And, personally, I find his reactions more interesting, because they were diversive and honest, I even laughed so hard on some of them, it would be boring if he were just saying:"It is nice, good..." He actually reacted like us, fans, and not like famous person, hahah. :D :lol:

I really don't get his defenders. I actually even disagree with people who say this is how a regular Youtuber is reacting. No! Any intelligent fan would not compare a transition to a farting, nor would they make fun of low budgets of small countries. No f*cking way I would watch a Youtuber like this. At least the ones I am watching are more intelligent. There are other, way smarter ways to throw shade or express honest opinions.

I agree that we should not hate him, in fact you don't fight hate with hate! But to say that "it's nothing" and we should "stop the drama"?? Seriously?

Oh and all the "he's just honest" comments!!! Bitch, you don't defend being a bitch! Since when is being outright rude called honest? I don't get people like that. You can be honest all you want, but you totally lack any intelligence if you don't know when and how to shut your mouth.

Jesus, they were never colleagues. His brother Oliver went to the same school as him, but that's about the closest relationship they had to him. They haven't even talked to these Swedish DJ's in years. The only person I truly feel bad for here is Alesso - who actually was a colleague of Avicii and has now lost two of his friends.

Now, what's up with the Benjamin-cirklejerk of endlessly liking each other's posts and defending him so profusely? Is he THAT hot? Cause people were saying the same things about Alex with his controversial comments about Portugal last year and I didn't see you all rallying to defend him this quick :lol:

I mean, let's be honest here. Had it been someone less attractive and popular, no millennial would be here defending them.
Still can't believe people are defending him and calling him honest. Making fun of San Marino's budget, DAMN, he's really living in a bubble. Close mindedness at its finest.

C'mon, he is Just a 20 years old boy. He is still a child. He didn't think about his answers. He did not like some songs and what is wrong with it? And San Marino really had poor budget, that was a fact.

Why so many people hate Sweden every year?
