that’s partly due to the Japanese government being run by old people and not the new generation. It’s the same way with japans opinions about other opponents and history in ww2 trying to downplay their actions.
It didn’t seem like a lot of younger people acknowledged anything, even the blatant casual racism some of them blurted constantly. They were shocked when I said all the racism is weird to experience and witness. Sure it was extra apparent as a white guy in an Asian country and a foreign culture, often being the target of it, but most didn’t exactly speak highly of Koreans or Chinese, or white people, or black people…
Countries with a monoculture are racist as shit and the majority of the world’s population is housed within monoculture countries. Exposure breeds acceptance and without exposure, there can be no acceptance.
