As for Ukraine, it is a breakaway territory of Russia that needed to be taken back like how Tibet tried to secede from China in 1913.
It is shocking how you got so many likes for spreading falsehoods and propaganda.

Ukraine is an internationally recognised country by the UN, China and Russia. There also legal treaties which Russia willingly signed which recognised Ukraine as an independent country

For Tibet nothing the above happened. And trying to compare it with Ukraine shows how ignorant (or malicious) your post is.

Shooting Death of Amir Locke


Minneapolis police shooting Amir Locke about nine seconds after entering an apartment while carrying out a no-knock warrant.

About nine seconds after officers entered the home and announced their presence, officer Mark Hanneman fired his weapon and struck Locke twice in the chest and once in the wrist. Officers provided emergency aid to Locke who died at a nearby hospital, according to a release from the department.

About Korea and their cultural revolution...

The de-sinicization movement in Korea started in 1948, and by the 1970s, under the active policies of military dictator Park Chung-hee, Chinese language was purged completely from the Korean education system. Cold War and US influence played a huge part.

Koreans used the Chinese language up until the early 20th century, especially by scholars and the government, even though Hangul was already invented. If you go to Korea, any building or written document over 100 years old is likely to have Chinese characters on it.

Purging the Chinese language created a problem for them as most of their history was recorded in Chinese, so they are effectively history blind. Some older Koreans, those aged 50+ may know some Chinese characters but not good enough to read entire passages of text, only very few academics are fully read, while the young and middle aged of the populance are completely Chinese illiterate. Those with some knowledge of history dare not speak out and acknowledge the fact that Korean kingdoms spent centuries as Chinese imperial vassal states.

This created a situation now where rumors and unofficial history/urban legends have replaced real history - where Confucius was Korean, so was Daoism/Tai Chi, Kim Chi was invented in Korea instead of sprend to Korea from China; heck the way they tell the narrative - China and it's beings was a land of savage cannibals before being blessed with glorious Korean civilization!

Anyway, here we have some older Koreans writing Chinese calligraphy...

I thought it was just some internet trolls having problems with it, but i guess korean ultranationalism is scary and real

I remember the ultranationalist also forced a entire running TV series (with big starts) to get canceled because it served chinese food or had chinese porcelain in one dining scene of a historic drama

Same with Japanese. It used to be that IJA documents were completely readable by Chinese freedom fighters without translation, but since the defeat of Imperial Japan the use of Chinese characters has been strictly limited.
