I wonder if this event marks the end of Ukraine culturally.
I mean supposing the war ends and of course there will be rebuilding required - but there is no going back on the popularity and mindshare Ukraine has built as an idea, a people, and country, especially in the western world as a whole.
Is it destined to become a meme country for the west, it's culture ultimately eroded and watered down over time as rubbernecking westerners and western companies shift in?
It's well known that rampant globalisation removes cultural diversity.
Hawaii for example.
