With the abundance of languages in the EU I imagine that allows us to find quite many words that are phonetically similar to rude words of other languages.
Wouldn't it be fun to see if it's only the English language that are afforded such privileges of denial?On the other hand I don't really care what happens in the eurovision song contest.

The German Scheiße is most definitely not on the same level here, that would be more like shit.
The more direct equivalent IMHO is Fotze.

Isn't the Italian one just like stupid/turd/stupid turd?
Maybe 'figa'?Also all the slav languages translate to either 'shit' or 'fuck', neither of which I would associate with cunt.
Same with Portuguese ('shit').
Greek is just 'wanker'.
And Polish is 'hooker'.

I'd say the issue here is that the rest of the song is in English. It's literally only this one word that is supposedly in Maltese, in the sentence "I do it all the time, serving kant".

The Finnish word you have is also just 'shit' and in no way equivalent to 'cunt'. The word youre looking for is 'vittu', although it is usually (mis)translated as 'fuck'. The common translation is likely due to the prevalence of use of both 'fuck' and 'vittu' and their similar severity rather than meaning.

That sounds reasonable and I can understand the decision.
theguardian.com only gave us this for context:The chorus of Conte’s empowerment anthem contains the phrase “serving kant” – a queer or drag slang phrase roughly meaning “to express boldness”.
