Japan: No refugees, we must look after our own citizens first.

[Nirya]

lol, that isn't even an accurate enough sample size to say anything.

Well, you can look to the european countries then for a more accurate sample size. Seems to be a trend that there is a crime problem among them.

[Malacrass]

As usual you have no fucking clue what you are talking about. Talk with - or read reports about - black US soldiers and how women or children in small towns react to them. Also white != white. Go into a shrine and witness how people react to you, assuming you're american. Tell them in okay japanese that you are german and see reactions change.

I personally know over a dozen people studying Japanese at my university, including lengthy stays in various Japanese cities. They all, without exception, can tell you disturbing stories about xenophobia in Japan - personal experiences - and they are all as white as you can be and as "german" as you can imagine.

2 of them even stopped going to courses after their stay because they had their weeabo fantasy shattered too hard.

Most Japanese are friendly towards tourists, but if you are to stay for a while you WILL meet resistance. The courses preparing student exchanges even try to prepare people for that experience. Not sure if they do at US unis.

Japan is one of the most xenophobic countries on the planet. No surprise here. But they are going to slowly die out, so they might have to rethink their position.

lol, that isn't even an accurate enough sample size to say anything.

Immigrants account for more than 80% of all serious crimes in Sweden (between 2014 and 2015 the measure of group rapes amounted to 100% immigrants). That's a large enough sample size if anything.

27% of Somalis in the last five years in Sweden have been arrested for crimes with charges serious enough to lead to prison sentences. 80% are also unemployed.

Absolutely. If you're not Japanese, you're Gaijin. Not Gaikokujin, Gaijin. I was just correcting the absurd garbage Tasher was spewing.

[Macaquerie]

Yes, it's enough for me to be wary about them when 2 out of 27 are rapists. There would be even more criminals if there were hundreds of thousands.

Wasn't there a time when Koreans were considered little better than vermin by the Japanese as well? But hey, after a few decades of home rule and sound economic development (with a bit of help from the good old US of A), they're about as close to equals as the Japanese are willing to consider. So what makes a poor Syrian kid caught up in a proxy war between great powers he has no ability to influence different from the Korean kid stuck in the same situation 65 years ago?

Of course. Non far-right sites does not report it because they are part of the conspiracy

[NED funded]

Not at all. Japan has taken refugees, just not in the same amounts some western countries have.

According to Ministry of Justice data, it accepted just 11 asylum seekers out of a record 5,000 applications last year, although Japanese officials say most of the asylum applicants were from other Asian countries and were already living in Japan.

I guess 11 is Japan's limit.

[Dug]

Japan has always been xenophobic and they have problems finding room for their own citizens since their land mass is y'know many times smaller than the US...

[sarahtasher]

Absolutely. If you're not Japanese, you're Gaijin. Not Gaikokujin, Gaijin. I was just correcting the absurd garbage Tasher was spewing.

What garbage ? That Japanese don't especially hate Mexicans and Arabs while being awed by ''Westerners'' ?

[Elba]

How dare they not accept 3rd world trash into their country. Must be racist , bigots, homophobes, misogynistic.

Man, since Trump got elected (or rather since he started campaigning) people have become awfully brazen with their public racism.

Koreans are still considered bad.

Many of them are. DN (Dagens Nyheter, one of the largest papers here) even admit to choosing what "agendas" to show. They hid the fact that young girls were being sexually harassed in large amounts during festivals (funnily enough festivals with mostly Swedes, like rock festivals, had no cases). The police even had a directive (code 291) to completely hide any crimes committed by refugees.

p.s. the information is mainly from BRÅ and NTU, they're run by the government, and the government in Sweden is left.

[Elba]

Indeed we have no right to judge them.

Sarcasm? Cuz I'm gonna judge the shit outta racists.

[wowaccounttom]

if we didnt make Anime & Hentai, more would want to come here.



huzzaaahhh stay away...

[Nirya]

This. They're still contributing, they're still helping with the refugee problem. But they don't have the ability to take care of refugees. That's not a politics issue, that's just not solvable. And they aren't outright just saying "Well that's just like, your problem man" and wiping their hands of the situation, they're still contributing a LARGE sum of money to assist countries who DO have the capability to take refugees.

I see no issue here.

There is ability to take care of refugees, there is no will to do so on the other hand. Very different things.

That's convenient then, that allow you to say whatever you want.

This is sort of like the modern day equivalent of that BS legend about Montezuma welcoming Cortes as a god, eh? Sure, the sheer amount of money and effort spent marketing the supremacy of the white dick has probably swayed no small number of Japanese, as it has anywhere else where movies are shown or clothes are sold, but it's hardly as prevalent as some people would think it is.

I don't really see the problem with this. No country is under any obligation to take refugees.

Did you completely ignore that most of the data is from the government (the problem is the representatives of the government and the media)? Well, there's obviously no limit to your kind. The government decided not to show these things in compilations anymore, because apparently it's not "relevant" (what kind of moron doesn't think it's relevant that immigrants committed every single group rape during a period?), but the data is still there.
