When no more Russian performing groups were coming to USA based on prejudice, I noticed Ukraine sending their half-assed companies instead and getting booked. This was when leftists were putting Ukraine flags on their social media. I watched a half-assed performance for free. The most interesting part and the most notable thing I remember to this day was the ending when they patriotically tried to sing their national anthem and it was the most pathetic attempt. Obviously the performers would have practiced this propaganda patriotic display. They looked like they didn't know the words, they were unsure of the melody and were guess-mouthing it and it wasn't sung in normal volume or loud in pride, but seemed to be embarrassment for not knowing the anthem. Yes, fake nation and very weak national identity.
