Japan accepted just three refugees in the first half of 2017

What does any of this have to do what us recently going in there and destabilizing current nations in power?

To illustrate what goes around comes around.

The states the US has destabilised are only artifical states created by Russia and the us mostly as puppet dictatorship's that replaced the previous colonial puppet states that replaced the ottoman empire who purported numerous crimes against Eastern Europe blah blah blah were all fucking evil admit it and stop the victim dick waggling

[Daedius]

Do you know that NONE of these fucking retards that yell about "doing the right thing" has NEVER EVER EVER taken a refugee in their own home? Even if it's some filthy rich hypocrite with 20 mansions and 30 swimming pools, nope, none of those is for the refugees. But "WE must to the right thing" lol

Check out George Clooney. Virtue Signaler quickly changed his tune when refugees were allocated right beside one of his holiday homes.

It is true, all these preachers to do the right thing are generally jackasses that are not affected by the things others who are and are concerned with, whom have the complete audacity to call such concerned people to be racist, xenophobic, etc. ... like a certain mod here. They'd quickly change their minds once they are.

Duh, because a lot of the left are stuck in this bubble where they can't see other people's problems or opinions, no matter how rational and correct those opinions are. As a liberal myself, that's a big problem that the left has as well as the right. Everyone's too stuck in their own bubble nowadays. Japan has always been this way and some of the most xenophobic and racist people are Asian but they and the countries they live in get a pass for some reason. Meanwhile countries like the US get crucified if they don't accept everyone and anyone. Hopefully we can get moderates who can see the middle ground. I'm all for helping people but others should definitely put their own share of help out before demanding others shoulder the burden.

I never have any problem with xenophobia when I visit there. Is maybe different if you plan to move there?

depends on if your a tourist or an immigrant and also if your white/black.

best place to go to experience racism as a white person is some places in china and hongkong my sister had a laugh at a restaurant in hongkongs airport when a old Chinese lady kicked off an almighty fuss about being seated next to her because she was white

Cherry picking the best while us with land connection to the shitshow have to just take it all in

Maybe you should've planned better like we did, and found a home elsewhere.

[Bigbazz]

I'm not against taking in immigrants from war torn states, but damn a lot of people need to understand that the reality of taking in immigrants means we take the bad apples too and good or bad there is a massive clash in culture, it's really not a healthy thing for our country and overall is a negative burden for us regardless of whether or not it is the right thing to do to help those people.

Japan and China are all about protecting their cultures locally and nationally, this is just an extension of that. In europe things are different, we have been more about multiculturism and immigration is nothing new.

[Deleted]

invite as many immigrants as you want
but they must live in only the rich parts - see how the champagne socialists like it
don't house them in poor areas and create social tension
otherwise they are back of the line
europe is under enough pressure
no more room for millions more
send them to russia, UAE or eastern asia

[Aggrophobic]

Yeah, they also have a huge poulation problem where they don't produce nearly enough children to cover for their aging poulation.
There won't be a Japan left in a few generations if they don't act soon.

It's hardly a dream scenario.

[Molis]

Good for Japan.

US should follow suit.

I am for taking refugees that will enhance our culture or workforce.
I am not for opening the flood gates for all refugees that end up putting a burden on our society.

I want actual legal immigrants that can contribute.

[Deleted]

while europe falls, japan and chinese come over and take pictures, and return to their nationalist paradise

[Seranthor]

They are obligated to if they signed agreements they would.

And then there is something called the 'declaration of human rights' - which also has been signed and agreed upon.

The rule of law and making agreements means something in most places.

So then you wont have any problem at all showing exactly what agreement they signed saying they'd take in refugees and how many. And you wont have any problem finding the law that says they have to...

I'm dying to read these.

Wow so many people live in some parallel universe where Europe is ending... To encourage other countries to adapt Japans decisions not to take refugees is just beyond me.

We profit from globalization more than anyone else, abuse the poorest countries in the world and exploit them - there is almost nothing around is not being imported from people who greatly suffer for us. And instead of applying human rights globally some people here look at them like dirt and beasts? This is truly horrible.

And about Japan... they have a very isolated history and might still need some time. Seeing how they also develop tendencies like Karōshi I doubt that they can avoid improving their social intercourse within and outside for long.

why dont u invite the refugees to come live with you or in your neighbourhood? maybe you can be all diplomatic when you have anti social behaviour on your door step? let me guess, you are another Californian champagne socialist?

[jackofwind]

Japanese culture is extremely xenophobic, more at 11.

I've practically lived next door with refugees since my childhood. When I was young they were people from Yugoslavia, now they are Syrians and Afghanis. In over 20 years we barely had any problems with any of them.

[ezgeze]

Just because Japan is shirking it's responsibility doesn't mean Europe and the U.S. should as well. We all have our role to play. Do the right thing.

Also, why are you so angry against refugees who have lost everything Daneman? That's not cool.

The only responsibility Japan has is to its own people.

[Kithelle]

They have a responsibility to the world. They should take more people in to help with the strife in the world.

No they don't, if they don't want to take in refugees they don't have to. You have to be blind not to see the effects that these refugees have on some of the countries that took them in mass.

Countries bending over backwards for some of these refugees like they owe them something even after they took them into their country and gave them a warm bed and food.

Which is the problem? An abstract metric going down or the declining birth rate? To me it is the later that is at issue. It seems to you the only issue is this metric and that the number is higher each year forever.

It's no abstract metric lol, do I need to flick you more articles about the effect Japan's aging population is having on its economy?

Why don't you go out and educate yourself for once?
