>Japan never changed.
Yep, that's what I was saying.
The Japanese have always been racist and exclusionary. The only reason they haven't been attacking other countries in the last 60 years is the absolute ass kicking they recieved from the US when they crossed us last.
"The Japanese have always been racist and exclusionary."
That bears repeating. In my job, we've had to deal with Japanese. They are as racist and arrogant as any other people I've ever worked with. One thing that really irks me is their insistence on being addressed as Mr. whatever. My company works on an informal first name basis except when it comes to Japanese. Then we have to call them Mr. whatever. They call us by our first name though.
