It's just scientific fact that they love being slaves to corporations unlike us, the proudly independent and individualistic Westerners

That guy shouldn't have said that but I see plenty of Japanese people who are fairly fluent in English say things like "As a Japanese" or "I am a Japanese and I..." It appears in quite a few youtube comments and other social media comments from what I've seen. They'll also say it out loud in interviews and stuff.
It's technically correct as a noun for a Japanese person, like "a German" or "an Italian." It just sounds weirdly antiquated and kinda racist in modern day.
What's racist about it though? Like isn't just because most people that would say "I met a japanese" are the same people who use the words "a female" when they talk about women? Is there anything actually racist in the phrasing itself, that makes it different from referring to other nationalities?
Like someone else said, the vibes are just off in a way I can't quite articulate.
"A German" sounds okay but "a Japanese" or "a Chinese" just don't without a "person" or some other word after them
Oh well that's easy. That's because the chinese are people, while the germans aren't
