Event id #3165 : Anti (Ukraine) war demo competition
Maybe we can consider the end of the war as a soft deadline?? |

Yeah no.
Demos in support, sure. But this feels a bit off to me. |

Well, since its here now and we have "participating" entries already, it will stay unless Monte calls it off.
Entries dealing with such topics are up to the people loading their "products" into ESCOS or another displayer of course but even them could not enter the outcome into the compo *hint*.
IMHO these topics are always double-edged swords due to way off political and personal opinions - and lack the sexy part _always_. |

Maybe turn it into a "voice your opinion" -type of challenge instead of a competition? Or just call it off. |

Yeah, awful idea to do this IMO… better to just organise a fundraiser on Facebook or something - or even just as a forum thread here…
I mean… what next? Anti-Brexit? Anti-antivax? Pro-LGBT? These are all things that don’t need competitions. |

This competition may be a bad idea due to many things, but this isn't any of it. |

There, I added my humble entry.
I don't oppose organising an anti-war event, vice versa, but maybe it could be just an event, not a compo. A channel of expressing our support to Ukraine in our c64 demoscene way, if you wish. I doubt anyone has great desire to actually compete in such events, me including. |
