Wow even Japan doesnt like Biden.
Well, Biden was involved with what happened to Shinzo Abe.. who wanted to strengthen Japan militarily again..(also friendly towards Trump) untill he got assassinated.
Are you surprised?
@@JayRitzy It is a bit surprising considering that Japanese media mostly parrots US mainstream media propaganda. If even that dam is breaking, it would be a significant shift from the past.
@@JayRitzy everyone are surprised. People in Japan live like in anime. Doesn't knowing about anything.
ASEANS also dislike Biden too.
Japan should stand for Japan. I think it’s a wonderful place and culture.
Yes and saying the truth about what many people are thinking.
Japan DOES stand for Japan, they absolutely want nothing to do with foreigners 97.5% of the population is Japanese only 1.2% is anything other than Asian. They are the most racist nation in the world.
@@dooksan Japan can't be on its own. Its a vassal state to US since ww2. If the US tell japan to jump to a cliff , then japanese will ask when and what time to jump. Japan no longer has the honor as a country i think.
@phunguyen82 I think your right, but Japan can take its sovereignty back. I think it would be beneficial for westerners to inform our Japanese friends of what they are in store for if they continue down the path of forced diversity.
@@tristanjager4112 yes. I’m cheering and hoping.
"We won't judge you based on your president."
I appreciate that.
You can judge them, Japan.
Black Americans understand your pain all too well.
Blacks had to choose and still choosing between the lesser of two evil for the last 400 years after being enslaved, brutalized, lynched, burn at the stake, killed, tortured and murdered.
These are a people who don’t have a word that they can keep. As Louis Farrakhan said, Satan promises only to deceive.
Just remember that and Japan will be okay. Just go on over to BRICS and register as a BRICS member and your country’s future will be brighter.
As a visible foreigner that lived in a predominantly homogeneous city, people DO treat you differently, that should be obvious. It's nothing malicious, they don't really go out of their way to make you miserable, but they'll ask questions that they won't normally ask people that look like them. It usually comes from a place of curiosity and friendly small talk so it's not really something as hardcore like racism or xenophobia.
Heck, I'd go as far as to say that people that throw those words around casually are the sort of people that haven't lived as a stranger in a strange land and would much rather make up a story of how the world might appear to the so-called "victims" and refuse to actually understand them. They would much rather see the world through their warped looking glass than truly see the world as it is.
By the way, what kind of things were you told? I had no idea, so could you please let me have some reference for the future?
"Xenophobia" is just a natural and healthy reaction to foreign elements in a society. "Racism" is a slur concocted by Trotsky.
@@GeneraluStelaruwhat a daft thing to say
its true xenophobia is natural
As another visible foreigner who has lived in predominantly homogeneous areas, I agree. It's a situation that can happen anywhere in the world. Americans showing up in some European locations can experience the same thing.
Biden isn't liked here in the USA either
Let's be honest, we hate all our politicians. It's just that it's been getting more disparate as of late
@@HoV326They aren't just unlikeable, most of our politicians are Criminals and he is like the poster boy criminal. He is so criminal he has to criminally collude to get his Election opponent convicted of crimes that don't exist. Even former Biden voters are starting to believe he really didn't win that election, *purely because they dislike him now*
For every Ted Cruz or Joe Manchin that is just unliked for being a lame politician there are like 3-4 unconvicted felons, and they all stump for Joey because he is like a lynchpin to uncovering some of their more heinous international crimes in particular.
Lots of people claim they do. And yet they voted for him and will vote for him (or Newsom) again.
@@HoV326wrong bozo, tell me about Ron Paul. Some politicians are for the people and rhe country!!
@JM-si8xr who is Ron Paul? By the way, I was being satirical. Let's not resort to name calling just because someone didn't get it. It's completely unnecessary and childish. I've seen literal 10 year olds act better than that
The whole Stop Asian Hate narrative quietly went away when all those videos showing what was really going on came out and went viral.
Yeah, the truth is that it was mostly black people attacking Asians. Stop Asian Hate was an activist campaign pushed by leftists, and since the leftist narrative states that white people (particularly white straight men) are the "oppressor" group, it was aimed at them. But since us black people are considered "oppressed", it didn't fit the narrative, so they had to drop it.
This is the issue leftists always have with Asians: they are disporportianally successful in the West (more than white people), so they should be "oppressors", but they are a minority group, which should make them "oppressed". Their existance completely disproves their BS ideology.
Democrats will throw Japanese people under the bus every chance they get
@@drzerogi75% of the perpetrators were white
That whole movement only exclusive against trump

@@laohu5511 And that list keeps shrinking.
He was disliked since the 80s .
The brain surgery he had back then didn't do him any favors either
Oh, for those who don't know *this man had brain surgery in the late 1980's and was openly mocked for being senile by Democrats at the White House Press dinner while Vice President*
This decline isn't new, he has been in decline for 30 years
I tried explaining that to the goldfish memory people here in the states. Somehow, Obama had washed away all recollection of the terrible things he had said.
and trump was loved yet everyone obeys the media now and copies what they get told.
@@timsievers2067 president Obama is very good at what he does . The English language is excellent at distorting reality . I saw him speak a few times during my time at Arizona state . The media at the time put an invisible vest around his image that gave republicans fear to speak about his policies and actions . Dick Chaney referenced this in 2013 when Edward Snowden leaked information. Who are actually cousins ….
@@timsievers2067 Demand to get actual good candidates or demand a multi-party system. The US has 2 horrible candidates instead of a leader people can be proud of.
I really like how you show what people are thinking and let them speak for themselves.
Why would you be discouraged? Only idiots support Biden
When Japan starts talking about American govt. it means it’s serious and the American govt. shouldn’t ignore this concern.
it means our government is full of shameless criminals driven by greed and power
I agree with that Jamie guy. Everybody has their own definition of what racism is. While i'm at work. my white coworker is telling me how racism doesn't exist among the whites. its simply not true. I experienced quite a bit of racism as a kid. But i have noticed that it got much better overtime, as the people around me got used to me. Well when i told him that, he was upset that i didn't agree with him.
I felt that most of the time what i precieved as racism wasn't really people trying to be mean, they were bunch of loud mouth that speak without filtering their thoughts, many of them were good people and great friends once you took the initative to break the ice. There are obiviously nut jobs that refuse to accept you. But that's just life you can't get everybody to like you after all.
I disagree with the lady that says everybody stares at them. I moved to a tiny ass town with a population of only 6000 in my early 20s for work, out of the 6000 people there only 3 people were chinese. the other 2 were a couple running a chinese resturant there. Everybody were staring at me. They did so not because they are racists but because of curiosity. They didn't want to speak with me because they were not uncomfortable, probably thought i didn't speak their language, which is natural behavior since i obiviously isn't from their neck of woods. At first like her i did not feel comfortable from all the attentions i'm getting, well now after many years, Everybody treats me like i'm from there. It just takes time to get used to. If you are living in a big city where everyone is a stranger, you just have to suck it up and get used to it i guess.
nobody cares
@@secretagentcat You seem to care enough to claim otherwise.
@@humrH2360 people are racist, get over it
Be careful not to make every convo a one shoe fits all sizes situation. Not everyone will have that experience with other people. I agree don't let 1 person sour your taste of a group. But be careful cause you might dismiss geniune problems pertainting racism.
The only Racists are karens full stop. Its a 100% overlap. You find theme in all cultures and they all are fatherless.
The final point in this video is quite important. The country is not the same as the leader. In basically every country there will be millions who dislike their own leader.
Certainly true in Iran. North Korea tier leadership, but lots of normal Iranians seem quite cool.
You don't see their president and their people as the same, but they probably would, as other westerners. For example Turkey. They hate Turks because of their president. They do racism to Turks then "oh no, we love you, but you choose him" etc etc. Sometimes their racism "doesn't count" because opponent is Turks and Turkey. Everything is "fair" according to them.
They are most ignorant AND arrogant people in the world. Be careful Japanese people.
Starting? You're all late to the party! 😂
30 years too late!
They didn’t really have an opinion for dumb ahh American politics busy w there own stuff
better late then never but it is up to the citizens of the US to stop pedo-pete biden
@@toruinouelovertbh political awareness in general in Japan wasn't really significant before either, but with life quality becoming worse more people are trying to research what's happening now
It's okay, Nobita-san.
Nobody over here in America likes him either.
To be fair Biden doesn't know where he is 95 percent of the time.
Into Hunter's pocket
Biden literally lied his entire career. There are videos showing every single,solitary speech and or interview he ever did and they were all proven to be nothing more than lies and numerous acts of plagiarism (like the majority of the democrats and swamp republicans in DC). The man is awful.

You can have whatever political beliefs you want but no matter who you like or dislike it’s important to stay informed about things like the economy or politician’s views. As an American and trying to not have my comment deleted by YT I’ll say this:
*Know who you vote for and understand there’s a lot of foul play at hand*
Happy pride month!
its almost if our rights have been taken yet americans are docile because the political game is more important than taking back our rights. Religion and greed has a vice grip on America, neither left or right cares we should be taking our rights back

@@GeekyC. humanity
@@GeekyC. True! The elitist’s in the Western countries won’t be happy until we’ve destroyed ourselves, and each other, and then they’ll need new blood. They believe that we’re too stupid to make our own decisions. They’ve gone to the elite schools and are the ‘experts’, so we should sit down, and let them rule over us. We’d all be so much happier if we’d let them make all of our decisions! Aren’t we happier now?! Lol! Most of the people who graduated from our supposed ‘Ivy League’ Universities hold extreme beliefs, and are totalitarian’s, Marxist’s, or Communist’s. Our universities (and our k-12 grade schools, too) have become indoctrination camps for kids. I guess progressives got tired of losing, so they started teaching and brainwashing children. Both parents were so busy working, they had no clue that their children had been turned against their own gender, parents, and country🤷♀️

You need to realize that Japan and US are allies in foreign policy but the two have ALWAYS been industrial rivals.
because japanese trucks are superior and are basically banned.
the toyota hiliux is the greatest vehicle ever made
@@zm1786Hillux was almost ubiquitous in my country like 10 years ago, I don't know what happened. It's still popular but not nearly as much
Japan has ZERO independent foreign policy. Japan is militarily occupied by the US.
@@zm1786 How are they banned when they make some in the US? I see plenty at dealerships and tons on the road. The only way you won't is if you're in a area where the big 3 (Ford, GM and Dodge/Chrysler/Jeep) have factories, so the locals and people who work there buy out of a desire to support the nearby jobs and most importantly a domestic manufacturer.
If you're just talking about the Hilux, its been replaced in the mid 90s by the Tacoma to cater to American buyers which led to the T100 and the Tundra that replaced it , the latter of which is the closest you get to a pure made in USA car, even more so then the big 3.
"Always" lmao not even for 100 yrs yet.
With how incredibly unsafe European and Western countries have increasingly become over the years because of certain 'economic immigrants', Japanese people really shouldn't even try to go study over there.
The universities and high schools are way above the USA. Thewoke has caused the ignorance and hate throughout this country. Celebrities need to stay out of politics to pretend they are intelligent and relevant. This is why Hollywood has gone downhill fast. Foreigners entering Japan need to learn the customs, and how they think. They teach respect and loyalty at a very young age. My friend is Caucasian who lived in Japan for several years and lived it there. He spoke Japanese and learned their customs, and traditions which made it much easier for him. He said when he came back to the auSA it was a different world. He commented on how rude Americans are, and way too many people who use racism, bullying, and bad behavior as an excuse. He was a multimillionaire who understood me perfectly because I amJapanese although I was born and raised in Hawaii. We were brought up in the same manner as children in Japan. It is obvious that Biden has zero concept of other cultures. Sad to be so inept, and quick to judge others while his always yelling obscenities,and put down other races. Perhaps it’s because he was known to be buddies with the grand wizard of the KKK…just like Hillary Clinton. Notice they always blame others for their own prejudices……not honorable enough to tell the truth.
That isn’t even a new thing for foreign exchange students. Even back in the 90s Asian students studying in America got offed for knocking on the wrong door in town.
@@AdrianFahrenheitTepes Yes in America. Can you say the same thing for Europe in the 90s? Were foreign exchange students ever before this unsafe in France, Sweden, Germany? Now yes.
Touch some grass dude. If you would stop watching propaganda channels and would actually live there, you would know how bs "incredibly unsafe" is. Most cities I've been to (and lived in) don't even have strict "no go" zones for police like they exist in Ghettos in the US. Not having public guns really helps

"Peace cannot be created by force." Maybe not by force alone, but - as history shows - it can't be created by weakness either. You can renounce war, but that doesn't mean war will renounce you.
A further thought: if Japan were to re-arm in earnest, it would be a lot less dependent on US military bases, or at least it would be dealing with the US on a more equal footing.
"A harmless man is not a good man." - Jordan Peterson.
The phrase absolutely holds true, now more than ever. The only way you can protect whatever it is you hold dear is if you have the physical capabilities to do so. The other guy isn't going to be impressed by your unwillingness to hurt him when he wants whatever you have.

There's many benefits for Phillipines, but they have resources and by history of being left in dirt (ghetto)
With no Blackrock duty-free or us backup, Japan is counting on buying loyalty from ill reputation of Phillipines dealings.

Japanese conservatives have hated him for the past three years.
That is in every country that people judge an individual from one country based on what they experienced of someone else having similarity that is not related on their prejudice. In fact, each Individual is not someone's experience or representative of their country.
Always you can run to Mexico and then cross into US like what happening today. Same in Canada.
It's funny that Mizuho Fukushima said "Peace cannot be created by force, which is proven in history". It's proven in history that the US created lasting peace with overwhelming force against Japan in WWII. A critical part of making that peace last though was the deliberate economic cooperation immediately following the war and for the many decades since. Perhaps a better argument is that peace though force may not be possible today among nations that have nuclear weapons. Any overwhelming force today would mean the end of all life on earth. However, does that mean that any nuclear nation can do wars of choice and conquest without consequences? It's a dilemma with no easy answer.
Rational actors with the means to not be taken over are what creates longstanding peace. You can be for peace all you want, but it doesn't matter when you don't have the means for your beliefs to exist. Right now, there are very few rational actors, and a lot of incredibly shady countries just trying to create war everywhere they go. It makes the US look like a saint, which is honestly quite ridiculous.
Also the US created lasting peace with overwhelming force against Iraq and Afghanistan.... yeah right
What's closer to the truth is that the fear of an unwinnable war leads to peace. The reason why the USSR and USA never directly fought each other during the Cold War was because they both knew that they'd lose. The reason why Russia invaded Ukraine in 2022 is because they thought it would be an easy victory for them. War should never be the aim, but peace does come through strength.
@@Bunnyroo7 "because they thought it would be an easy victory for them"
another one weak narrative.
I don’t really expect the Japanese to like Trump because he’s basically the is very American to sum it up. Still he always seemed respectful of the Japanese. Seeing him actually come to the sumo tournament and present a trophy was cool for us American sumo fans.
... yeah not the case. Japan loves trump its the commie infiltrators that are causing problems that scream they hate him.
I would expect the opposite. Bold, brash, blond cowboy... that's exactly how Japan still imagines America to this day. And some of them have not forgotten the bromance with Abe Shinzo (pbuh)

Starting to dislike Biden? I just got back from Japan two months ago and all my friends said they prefer Trump over Biden. Besides Biden the peacemaker calling Japan and India a bunch of xenophobes doesn’t help international relations.
he Must talk about mainstream Medias i guess.
We All Know that the Men Of the Streets Opinion is Not Very represented in "the good Media"
I have never seen supporters for biden except for online behind Stock photo avatars.
It's more a feeling that Biden was a disappointment in that he continued many of Trump's America First policies (e.g. opposing Nippon Steel's takeover of US Steel, massive IRA subsidies that would compete against allies) and he's setting a stage for war with China, while being two-faced and hypocritical in letting Israel do what it wants. Trump in contrast is a simpleton and speaks of fire and fury, but at least he speaks his mind and people understand his populist feelings, and that while he likes sabre rattling against China and that he really likes protectionism and tariffs, he's also a guy who bromanced Kim Jong-un with love letters, and that he could eventually come to terms with the Chinese.
The Xenophobe comment is obviously a correct characterization of much of Japan, but the Japanese, like most others, would rather not be reminded of that fact. It's like people saying they can't be racist because "they have black friends".
@snintendog same for me but with the other guy
Biden's remark was very damaging.
So good to have your channel come into my feed.Good to hear alternative news source of voices of the real people of Japan! I always feel people of japan on the basic level love peace and have issues with the American military bases.
The largest ethnic Japanese population outside of Japan is in Brazil. Yet, when Brazilian-Japanese visit Japan they get the worst racism of any foreigner. It is absolutely true that Japan is a 'closed-society' with very little tolerance for foreign involvement either socially or commercially. There is much more openness in China than Japan, and that may seem contrary to media disinformation. Not that China is any model for diversity, but they are more open to acknowledge their cultural biases than Japan. Strategically Japan is very important to the USA, but Japan knows it must deal carefully with China or its economy will fail, so Japan may join with US economically and militarily, but knows it must deal carefully with China.
I fail to see an issue. If the foreigners don’t like it, they can leave. Western hegemony is corroding, and countries don’t have to adopt western sensibilities to be prosperous.
Foreigners need to accept that thats how it is. If they want to stay, then they need to *wholeheartedly* assimilate and abandon the ways of the old countries. Either way, you’re not gunna be fucked with by most people.
They need to both get over *it* & *themselves*. Shoulda made it work back home, losers 🤷🏾♂️
Japan dislike Biden??? Hmmm I wonder whyyyy 🤔🤔🤔
where are u from
JAPAN W. 😂😂
There's tons of racism in Japan, they just aren't properly taught what racism is. They think racism is basically whips and gas chambers rather than having biased generalization of other people's races.
Come to Cleveland. Lets eat wings, drink good beer, and just be happy
The US wanted Japan to fail since the 90's when the Yen value was so high for Americans to afford to buy Japanese cars. The US then asked Japan to drop its currency value down to almost nothing. So Americans can afford to buy Toyotas. Since then, the Yen has never gained it value.
That's how America get rid off its competition.
Do America want the EU to fail? The answer is YES.
As a American joe sucks as a president and is way to old
Then why do your people vote for him to be your leader?
As a fellow American, I agree.
And yet we voted to have our alternative be a man who is in the exact same age range we give Joe crap for and is just as polarizing
@@NetBattler He stole the election.
yeah but he doesn't have a criminal record
Japan needs to sell USA bonds and buy gold and silver bars and store the bars in Japan. Then change the yen to gold coins and silver coins. This will stop "inflation" (devaluing currency) make fiat currency obsolete. But then all countries with fiat currencies will collapse so this needs to be done with many other strong countries to eliminate a world fiat currency.
And/Or: join the BRICS
When the gold standard was removed, shortly before ww2 the countries that didnt convert to the new standard fared worse than the countries that quickly moved away from the gold standard. I would argue that japan was late to the show on raising interests rates. But a devalued currency is a double edged sword. 1 it makes your country men poor, but 2 it makes you more competitive in the global market as the cost of export falls to export product to countries with a stronger currency. This is why China intentionally suppresses the RMB value.
Japan beliongs to the japanese. No one stops to think maybe other countries have been TOO lenient to their foreigners in a way that is also "abnormal"
MAGA supports Japan
"It's Joever"
How does Japan feel about relying on a banana republic with a leader who clearly has some level of dementia for its national defense? It might be time to rethink the strategy.
Japan doesn't rely on Russia
Biden isnt the one calling the shots. Dementia is just a cover for the actions they are taking on a global stage. Its like playing poke with an old couple who act aloof and then at the end of the night they walk away with all your money.
America is also the one who introduces blackrock and vanguard to Japan,I hate them.
So unfortunately true….
Trump has clear signs of frontotemporal dementia, and wants to lock up his political opponents. Biden is just old.
He’s been in China’s pocket from day one, that should be enough for Japan.
Trump is more in line with Japanese values but Japanese believes the tv very strongly
Yes, and the narrative the media states had another motive...
I wish they would watch the real news and not mainstream crap
the media just regurgitates the biased and generally dishonest output of CNN and MSNBC.
Trump is a convicted felon, is that what you mean by in line with Japanese values?
no he isnt, stop spreading lies. trump only has respect for other dictators. both left and right are a sham
The most ancient and awesome countries like Japan, China, Korea
Are facing very low birth rates it worries me alot.
I hope in the future it will change.
They are my favorite countries
USA too, maybe it has something to do with corrupt politicians causing inflation and making it hard to live.

Biden backed a bill that was passed by congress which increased domestic spending. This spending resulted in the Fed needing to print more. The primary reason for inflation is global demand after the pandemic.
Les japonais n'ont pas compris que le grand bateau est en train de couler ....printing Money... printing Money..
You are over thinking it, it's because he is a monster.
Media trying to blame someone else but not their own I see.
"Starting to dislike"? Wow
Oh my God... A Japanese person looked at me! Stop the presses! I'm being oppressed!
Snowflake foreigners like that are so tiring. You come to a different country, you look physically different, it's normal people will look at you. Same thing happened to me so many times when I was travelling in Europe and the Middle East and I never assumed people were being racist just because they were curious 🙄
I wish I can say what I really want to say but I'll get in trouble cuz the government's listening
Stay woke
Say what you need to I try to be as polite as I can be, while trying to say what I need to. I have a lot of respect for japan and don't want to come across as offensive. But it's important for government eavesdropping to know that they're not your mother.
Are you FBI CIA service
@@shinwook5487 😂 nope I just don't believe anyone has the right to interfere to any extent of a person's life. I also believe that countries have boundaries for a reason. There is nothing worse than having a problem neighbour that you feel the need to move away just for the problem neighbour to follow you and get a house in the same street. 😂
It's not just biden, its the whole party he represents as well.
The other party is shit as well, question is which one of the two is worse......
@@drunkenpumpkins7401 As of right now, the Dems are worse. The candidate that they're pushing is the most incompetent person to ever hold office... By a lot. And they don't care so long as they win.
@@drunkenpumpkins7401 Neither is worse because they're all on the same team: Israel is their master.
Maybe a year ago I would have found that statement irritating, but yeah. I don't like either party. Too much corruption, warmongering, and propaganda. All the wealth goes to the top one way or another, and we end up too paranoid and pissed off at each other to notice that democracy died. World war 3 is around the corner and life as we know it is falling apart because of what both parties keep doing, and they won't let us vote against it.
The uni-party I presume. I dunno how it looks to my American brothers and sisters, but in the rest of the world it seems rather obvious that this is bigger than Rep vs Dem, Left vs Right horizontal political dynamics. This paradigm has shifted more into vertical meaning it is you (the normal people) vs elitists (political class, celebs, MSM and all their shills). It's a certain portion of the population that projects their image on the rest of the country and is also stroking their own egos by constantly forcing the rest of the world to abide by their so called "rules", which most normal people give zero F-s about.
I would be surprised if there is one single country that's likes Biden. UK as far as I'm aware can't stand him even a tiny bit.
I forgot to tell you what a great video.Thank you
Starting? What took you so long?
If Japan learned anything from the early 80's trade war with America, they should take advantage of the opportunity to join BRICS right now.
Japanese don't like their history. it means they absolutely don't learn history lessons.
Say what you will about Trump and Abe. Those pictures of them together were great
As the USA is still occupying Japan and many other countries after WW2 ,it´s time to go home and get your house in order. And now Japan has to rearm at a time when internally Japan needs everything but bigger Military.
Very good stuff, Nobita, thanks for this. I appreciate the sheer range of topics you cover.
I am a brown Gajin living in Japan,
The xenophobia of Japanese people is directly proportional to the length of my beard. 😅
I like to call him the Vegetable in Cheif.
we raised our defense budget then we get smashed by own houses in disasters.
I hope Japan wakes up much more and continues to distance itself from the US. The US is a slowly sinking ship and it will drag Japan down with it unless Japan starts to de-dollarize as much as possible. Japan needs to honor its sovereignty be much more self dependent. It needs to be remembered that the USA is for USA and will leave Japan in the lurch if push comes to shove.
That stupidest thing I heard
@Milkocheerio
Chinese bots are out in full force
Hey look, it’s that midget impersonating Bart from that episode of “The Simpsons” where they go to China. 🤣
What a great advice to make an already vulnerable cou try to the brink of sauron!
Gerontocractic Japan not liking a gerontocrat from its overlord and protector? Wow!
America: "Huh, you too?!"
Japan, please protect your border.
Racism is not a bad thing, on the contrary, it is a vital thing to protect the national identity and to avoid that one's own people do not become a colony of emigrants in their own country, which unfortunately happens at the global level. Stay pure Japan !
First time I've seen someone unironically advocate for racism so casually like it's something to be proud of. It crap like this that we make it a mystery how we've gotten this far without going extinct because we get more and more divided. I get not wanting to be taken advantage of by other countries and keeping your culture and identity alive. But this is just blatant extremism. This is the "kill a spider with a nuke" approach
there's nothing wrong with a homogenous society basically.
Just look at Ireland and England ... Ireland who has never harmed anyone is being harmed for opening up their country and trying to help. Women being r worded in both countries and men and women being beaten up but the media covers it up and calls your racist if you talk about it .. make it make sense
@beefueater4586 there's nothing wrong with a homogeneous society if you ask me. But at the same time, that's no excuse to advocate for racism like they were. Maybe they just really poorly worded their statement and chose the wrong word, or maybe they're genuinely a racist or advocate for racism. But still
@@GeekyC.Can you do me a favor and give me the stats of which ethic group is commiting the R word the most?
Although the concept of peace through weakness does seem dangerous
As an American, I think we're screwed no matter whose the president.
So, most Japanese would vote for Trump this coming US election. 😂
would*, but you just fundamentally can't because you're not based in America to have that right?
Japan realised trying to follow America, isn't good to improve Japanese economy but is killing it . Japanese economy depends on trade with largest economy, that's why the Korean government is turning away from Americans . For they realised their economy has been badly hit too .
no its bc jp hasn't adapted to the post covid world and is constantly using impractical business practices
A bit more complicated than that. It's not that the USA was ever that wonderful. Rather, it's that the alternative was worse. The Americans or the Soviets? Not that difficult to choose. The Americans or the Chinese? Not that difficult to choose. China, for its part, has also alienated many trading partners. Americans write rules in their favour -- and they enforce rules in their favour, but there are at least rules. The Chinese make it up as they go along and they're even more willing to harm others, even for minor diplomatic disagreements.
i just laugh when Japan obeying US order by protecting Dollars instead of Yen and now Yen is crumbling along side Dollars 🤣
I haven't really ever met a lot of Japanese people but the handful i have were really interesting. I'm a truck driver and one night 2 Japanese men started following me in the parking lot of the truck stop. I'm black and a big guy so it felt strange that these guys weren't afraid of me. At first i thought maybe i was imagining it but they were clearly following me. I stopped turned around and said, 'what?' The one closest to me asked 'do you know how to break into a truck?' Instead of getting insulted and saying that was racist i said, 'of course i do. where's your truck?' We walked back to their truck and I couched them on every trick i could think of to get into that truck. None of them worked. The head guy who i think was the boss asked, 'now what?' I said 'honestly bro I think you're just going to have to break the glass.' Without hesitation he starting looking on the ground grabbed the biggest rock he could find and tossed it as hard as he could throw the glass. I just stood there in shock for a second turned back toward him and asked, 'is there anything else i can help you with?' He said, "No." I then bowed to him and said, 'OK then goodnight gentleman.' The boss bowed back and I turned around and went back to my truck. It's a crazy story but i swear it's 100% real. I've been wanted to tell it for 7 years...😂
Weeaboos at 6:30 lmfao
This video raises many issues that are too complicated to comment on adequately. But let's start with "Win-Win" is a losing proposition. One party's gain is the other party's loss. It's called capitalism. It's a dynamic process that changes.
Japan is suffering? I remember when Japan had so much cash it went on a buying spree that inflated housing in Hawaii, to give one example. And how did Japan manage all that cash? Not well, which led to the "lost generation".
But not to worry, somebody is making money, and LOTS of it , e.g. LVMC, as profits go upstairs as Japan moves toward an investment-driven economy where anonymous entities expect a return at the expense of those producing that wealth.
It doesn't matter who is president, as evidenced by the fact the American "shining democracy" has produced just these two decrepit candidates, who symbolize Amerika 2024.
The best thing you could do is to enjoy a cup of tea while the cool spring breezes still last...
I Remember when Japan was the Wealthiest Country in the World !
It's okay, you don't want to come to america to study.
The universities have been teaching some very strange ideas to young people
I expect that your young people stay in japan have conservative values
Don't worry Japan, we don't like Joe biden here in the U S either
Great video
I don't want to trivialize the Japanese point of view, but these reasons are at least somewhat delusional.
1. Inflation --
Cost of importation is not rising because of inflation; inflation is rising because of the rising cost importation; cost of importation is rising because of rising cost of oil; cost of oil is rising, most significantly, because of the war in Ukraine.
The war has negatively affected the entire globe's economy. It just happened during Biden's administration.
While the U.S certainly has some degree of responsibility to anyone who relies on U.S dollar -- Japan carries the foremost responsibility for Japan's economy.
And just because Trump played golf with the P.M doesn't mean he would lift a finger to help Japan.
2. U.S occupation of Japan --
A) Japan was occupied by the U.S before Biden.
B) Were Trump to pull out from NATO, which he doesn't have the authority to do even as President, the U.S would still occupy Japan.
C) Were the U.S to withdraw its forces from Japan, Japan would have to significantly increase its defense budget spending which would further damage the economy.
People seem to be under the impression that if Japan disassociated itself from the U.S then Russia/China would suddenly warm up to it. It's not necessarily untrue, it's just a severe misrepresentation reality. China would seize the opportunity. You would just replacing one 'host' with a worse one. A smaller country cannot exist without having some level of attachment to a global power. If you prefer China to Japan then so be it, but don't pretend your economy, or borders, would be better for it.
3. Xenophobia --
As you described, people interpreted his comment as him calling Japanese people 'racists'. But Xenophobia is more accurate to the words that you say Japanese people agree with.
Racism is the core belief that a people are inferior to another. Xenophobia is simply fear of foreigners.
Also, asking people who are accused of something if they are that something is irrelevant as opposed to the people who actually experienced that something at the hand of those people.
Humans are going to always understand things from each unique perspective so this is why common education helps. Nobita now has understood everything in his own way but because of the data/information he consumed and a lot of factors involved. He's explained things in a bad way. I don't blame him
I mean Japanese people most certainly are racist. They do not shy away from parading around, waving signs on which the following is written: "Whether they're good or bad, kill all Koreans" etc. They have no remorse of what they had done during WW2 but instead they focus on the victim mentality, how badly they were treated by the US etc. They don't reflect upon their own actions. The US literally forged the Japan of today. It's not because they're so "peaceful" of their own. I find their people to be extremely hypocritical. Nobita himself admitted to have hated the US for the bombs yet I'm sure he never once gave a damn about the things Japan has done to its neighboring countries. He's just disillusioned and wants to push his own agenda.
well said!
Most people go to another country to experience the culture and the landscape, as they saw it in promotional adds. Tourists don't really think too much about the native people of the country they're visiting. Its extremely possible for Japan (and basically any country, to be honest) to be racist and xenophobic and still be a popular tourist attraction.
Also: now its the time when all those years of Japan refusing to deal with their involvement in the WWII are going to come back to bite the country in the ass. Most of Asia would prefer to join China against Japan, every day. Japan needs to find a way to sweet-talk its neighbours, because the idea of getting more military power could end up like the last time.
Honestly, the only reason some countries are willing to be on the same side as Japan is less because they're on Japan's side and more because they're on the U.S.'s side. It's why the U.S. has been a major presence whenever Japan is usually doing drills with Korea or Philipines. Because they're all US allies. They'd probably be, "To hell with you." if they didn't have a common ally, let alone a common enemy
"Most of Asia would prefer China against Japan, everyday"
Citation fucking needed, lmao. Most Southeast Asia nations, for example, have special disdain against China. Vietnam and Philippines are competing which nation hate China more, since China keep harassing those nations' territorial waters.
Regarding studying abroad in America, as an American I forget that it's very highly regarded to study in America. Though its become so expensive even for Americans, but for international students it costs almost double. As an engineering major in university, I kind of saw the international students as very rich and well off. I believe that the reality of American university is that its more of a business and the revenue comes mostly from international students, so those international students were more likely to be admitted into our universities than the local students.
When Trump was in office I remember Japan was worrying about having to pay more for the US military bases stationed. I also remember the education leader in his administration also pushed to force international students to go home during covid, it was a very upsetting and scary time. In the eyes of an American, that relationship between Trump and Japan was very transactional.
Prostitution is welcomed in the states , why stop a good relationship or transaction😂. This was is one of your better videos... US and Japanese relation are very important.
They're xenophobic not racist in most cases. Damn this video lol. Good watch regardless
Thank you so much for bringing out the opinions of the Japanese to the world. We can learn a lot from your channel ❤❤❤❤❤. Btw, starting to dislike the specific person after more than 50 years of history isn’t a bit too exaggerating, is it?
Are the American bases in Japan NOT a great deterrent to Sino aggression, a 731 in reverse, but the Japanese believe there are too many bases. Really?
China is not the aggressor.
What ever you do or think decisions always must come forth from exploring the uncomfortable and understanding the third or fourth order consequences. things don’t always seem like your friends or media make them to be.
Oh my god, as an American I don't know how to feel about this video, and in a war with China and Taiwan and USA it would likely be a air and navel war and The Us would likely want to fly from japan or have japan be apart of it and I suppose japan can't raise their military budget and they're not seriously trying to manufacture military equipment I did hear south Korea and Japan are trying to do a military build-up but Survival and preventing war is more important because fighting china would be fucking tough.
God Well we do need solutions to help japan and boost their yen currency and get them to not hate us.
Japan could dump their 1.1 trillion US treasury holdings to prop up the yen... That would be a bit of a problem for the US economy though.
@@hyhhy Why don't they do it then?
Holdings of Treasuries grew the most in Belgium, by $27 billion, to hit $320 billion. Japan, the largest non-U.S. holder of Treasuries, increased its U.S. government debt to $1.167 trillion, the largest since August 2022 when the country's holdings were at $1.196 trillion.Apr 17, 2024
@@TywinLannister0 Because their master the US tells them (i.e., their government) not to do it, because it would add to US inflation and deficit.
Japan is xenophobic, and there's nothing wrong with that. Fear of the foreign and strange is a perfectly natural experience. Not every culture needs to be a melting pot like the United States.
