      There is massive pushback from the actual people of japan against US bases. Their cucked by the US right wing government does not give a shit tho.

        Not really, most Japanese love the US. 29% oppose, 67% approve.

        For comparison, that's more favorable than almost every European country. It's not just the government, most of the nation truly sees the US as the "good guys".

          Those 29% are probably the people who actually live near US bases in japan.

          1/3 of the population seems pretty substantial to me. But by all means, go ahead and ignore them if you want.

          I also fail to see what this has to do with some poor guy getting the shit beaten out of him in NY because of Yellow Peril 2.0

            That's less than every european country save Poland, which is pretty much a "murica good" cult at this point

              Not sure what your point is here really. I posted a story about an asian dude getting fucked up in NY, which was obviously a direct consequence of anti-chinese scaremongering in western media, and you show up here with "well, japan bad".

              This is getting kinda weird tbh.

                The average Japanese person is unaware that their country is a US vassal state, and that most of their economic woes are due to US military-backed "diplomacy" that forcibly manipulated their currency in the 1980s, killing their huge export advantage in many tech sectors, transferring them over to US companies, and forcibly transferring much of their tech along the way.

                All of this is literally the reason for "hikikomoris" and such but the average Japanese person is blissfully unaware of it, and because of this they actually pathologically blame themselves, when the actual problem is that their country is literally a US prostitute.

                But again I'm betting they don't learn any of this shit in the US-centric sanitized history they learn.

                If Japan had somehow had nukes in 1980 and no US bases, it'd be even more dominant than it was back then.

                  Completely irrelevant. I posted something that happened to an asian person in the US.

                  He could have been from anywhere in asia, but the point is that what happened to him was because of the anti-chinese propaganda that is currently being peddled by both US parties.

                  Is this really so hard to understand?

                My point is that the Japanese government is illegitimate and more importantly, that most Japanese people are brainwashed to a such a degree that it affects the sense of self

                  That still has fuck all to do with an asian guy being attacked in NY because of mUh cHiNa bAd propaganda.

                  But god forbid that the US actually take responsibility for their shitty actions, right? Keep on trucking.

    Overseas Chinese people have learned to keep their heads down during this new cold war and especially in the wake of COVID-19 so it's mostly other East Asians and South East Asians that get beaten up. Ironic.

      what? the collarbone is literally the most commonly broken bone. it does not take much force to do it.

        Yeah,but u usually hear about someone's jaw being broken in a fight, not their collarbone. Unless someone intentionally aimed for it before they knocked him down, they would have had to really kick the hell out of him if you think about how someone covers up. But idk, I probably just got emotional now that I think about it.

      Not Asian, but my girlfriend is. Been real cool hearing people call it the China virus. Even cooler when living in a city that's 85% white. Luckily nobody has actually done that in person, but it doesn't help the paranoia for sure.

      Take it from an Asian person who's been assumed to be Chinese by Chinese people, Korean by Korean people, and Japanese by Japanese people: it's super hard to reliably determine the ethnic origins of most East Asian people just by looking at us.

      The people who claim to be able to (even the Asians) are likely falling victim to confirmation bias.
