Japanese people, pls. Your society, as a largely homogeneous one, has some serious problems with racism and colorism for everyone who is "othered"
Look up interviews with half-Japanese people in Japan for starters. They have a term in the Japanese language, even!
@IronicnotSavage I mostly hate how they bend it as they like. If they dont deem it "racism" then they dont care even if the affected people tells them how much it hurts them. But do the tiniest thing with their culture and they will get furious. All east asians are like this
The lack of knowledge and willful ignorance from Japanese people on racism is by design btw. It's easier to control people who blindly follow the status quo and think they're always completely innocent
@kono_nv I only replied to the person's claim???? If you cant understand this distinction, YOU did be better off staying out of this discussion and stop butting in
@kizukami0719@IndigoWaffle Yeah i dont support anything that may be offensive to other races. But i wonder if that will really be the case if non east asian did that to imitate an east asian character or will it have a varying opinions and trigger some negative reactions
@k6S0zfg7aCTlVUV@IndigoWaffle No I have seen a lot of Japanese people get furious with the slanted eyes gesture, the recent case is with the swedes. Its an offensive gesture, lets not hide the truth
@8pA4doReyB97@IndigoWaffle Oh okay. Tbh i need this to happen in real life to see if this will be the actual response.
For me if it the people you "admiring" dont see the admiration in your gestures then you shouldnt do it and avoid it.
