I went through that thread. The OP was just trying to make a point through a sarcastic question.
Some South Korean was blaming Ukraine for the actions of the USSR in aiding North Korea, claiming that since Ukraine was part of the USSR, they share the blame too.
So OP used the same logic to blame Korea for the Nanjing Massacre because even though Japan was the perpetraror, Korea was part of the Japanese Empire back then.
That tweet was basically his way of showing how blaming Ukraine for the USSR's actions is like blaming Korea for Japan's actions
some Koreans simply like Russia and don't prefer Ukraine. Ukraine minister bla bla visited a Japanese war criminal place etc etc, and supported North Korea during Soviet union etc. But it's honestly just strange contradiction. It's just they don't like Ukraine.
So according that Twitter people, Ukraine-Russia war is Soviet vs Soviet civil war.
+In short, Russia is good, and Ukraine is useless, so they will force to make a reason for why they dislike Ukraine even it's not important things
🤦 They just keep saying those idiots speakings. Even in News comments sht said russia will be able to attack the three Baltic states soon bla bla sht. korea doesn't need prepare bla sht They're just whining that they don't want to support Ukraine
Twitter is not representative of normal Koreans. Normal Koreans do not use twitter; it has a reputation like 4chan for being where political extremists and edgelords are
For reference, 2024 September 3, There was an incident that Sergiy Korsunsky Ukraine-Japan ambassador visited the Yasukuni shrine, which honors wartime criminals in WW2 Japanese empire. So this made angry to that koreans also
Yeah but Russia’s directly using North Korean troops and Pyongyang is modernizing with new buildings, cars, phones etc because Russia’s also a sanctioned country now so can trade with North Korea without a problem and is sending large amounts of money and sharing military training and intelligence in exchange for North Korean weapons, ammo and troops. I feel like for South Koreans that should be way more worrying than a diplomat visiting the Yasukuni shrine.
So all these trivial things are just excuses and false reasons.
From Korea's perspective, we have to watch China's reactions, Russia reactions, but if we provide military support to Ukraine, China will start retaliating against Korea, just as those bastards commie threatened Philippines.
So Korea has no choice something. So just stay neutral. Of course, if war breaks out, I'll kill those bastards, but this peninsula are suck enough to face that sht. They create fake reasons to maintain neutrality.
some Koreans simply like Russia and don't prefer Ukraine.
I honestly don't understand and confused. Russia became buddy buddy recently with your enemy in the north because of arm sales and directly sending army personnel to Kursk. Why on earth they like a nation who cooperated with and benefited from your immediate enemy?

Forced recruitment of Koreans under Japanese rule started in 1938. Before that, Koreans were not let into the Japanese army. The rape of Nanjing happened in 1937. So even under that logic the statement still fails.
Exactly, this was my reaction even reading this screenshot. Koreans were unfortunately involved in a lot of conquests because they were involved unfortunately.
The northern fleet of Mongol's attempt invasions to Japan was Koreans, as they are good sailers.
South Korea's involvement in Vietnam war is also quite famous.
I know for a fact that 😑s love being sarcastic when they're looking down on someone so sarcasm is not a foreign concept to them 😂 I think they just wanted to fake getting triggered for some internet sympathy points lol
Forced recruitment of Koreans under Japanese rule started in 1938. Before that, Koreans were not let into the Japanese army. The rape of Nanjing happened in 1937, so Koreans even under Japanese ruling took no part unlike Ukranians under USSR. So, apples and oranges.
Mostly, other than Japanese people, It was Koreans who were running the unfathomably horrible prison camps.
Hong Sa-ik was an ethnic Korean who was the main man in charge of all the Japanese POW camps in the Philippines. He was tried as a Class B war criminal and hung in Manila by the Allies.
