I’m very glad I’m no longer a weeb because having to interact with japanophiles who don’t see this and other problems really angers me
The worst part is that the Japanese xenophobia/racism discourse is not focused on Zainichi Koreans/Chinese people, or Burakumin, or South and South East Asian people, or African people, or Ainu and Ryukyu people.
It's always drowned out by white guys yelling about how nobody wants to sit next to them on the train and how that's the real racism.
One of my first experiences ever with my Host family in Japan was the mother pulling me aside to point out the Chinese tourists and saying like they were lepers. Legit didn’t understand what the problem was or why I should care.
me the first time i went with a friend to visit her family on long island and found out that there are people who at a social gathering straight up will say that they don't like jews
