Really sad to see all the hate against foreigners coming to japan here. I’d venture a guess that most of you were in these kids shoes at some point and you wouldn’t have wanted someone to steal your dreams or tell you that you’d never fit in, would you? I’m not a masochist so I wouldn’t.
I’ve been living in Japan for 6+years now and yeah there are days where people treat me like crap for no reason. I speak near perfect Japanese, take care of all my daily duties ex. Setting up internet, apartment, etc. by myself IN Japanese might I add and I pay high taxes and pension. And yeah a lot of the foreigners here really suck sometimes but there’s good and bad everywhere. My future wife is Japanese, she’s great, I’ve met some of the nicest people here and also some really mean ones that cheated me out of a lot of dough. But I’m not going to hate an entire race of people for the actions of a few. That’s caveman thinking.
ive slowly seen japan get better over the years and I’ve seen Japanese people change and accept foreigners. Heck, even marry some foreigners.
all this to say people can change and I do believe the borders will open soon and we’ll be able to meet up with our families. Going around saying it will never happen is foolish. Everybody wants to brag about being open minded when it comes to other controversial topics why are you so close minded about this one?
