no because you could be doing something better with your time, like literally sticking your hand onto an active stove top
Centie made a good point when she said that sometimes letting these people know that their bullshit will not simply go unchallenged is satisfying in itself. Like, they want to live in a bubble of hateful ignorance, so you pop it and leave. But that said, there are better ways to punch upwards.

Satisfying for a bit, sure. Then next thing you know all of the idiots are responding, and it gets a thousand times more tedious. Besides that, there are certainly others doing the exact same incredibly witty, and very very effective, thing.
To be fair, there are a lot of things in japan that were blatantly stolen from Korea. Writing, Pottery, Culture, ARt, Music, architecture, everything worth a dang. Or at least that's what I was told in high school by my Korean classmate, who is clearly not biased at all.
On the one hand, the Japanese have treated and continue to treat Koreans like crap; and the Koreans invented their own remarkably efficient alphabet where the Japanese writing system is half-stolen from Chinese and utterly baffling.
On the other hand, writing off the entirety of Japanese culture as theft from China and Korea is like writing off all of French culture because they jacked aioli from the Italians and invaded England. I mean, the richness of the Japanese poetic tradition alone is incredible.
For the most part I wouldn't even characterize it as theft, but the sharing of ideas. I mean, if your ancestors went to my ancestors and taught each other words and bought each other's goods, I cannot in good conscience call them thieves.
It does bother me that most folks on the internet default to calling the characters of my language "kanji." Which while technically true, also isn't.

This is absolutely true.
I also find the confusion of kanji with Chinese characters in their original context irksome, for what it's worth.
