Discrimination in Japan

[Buddha Smoker]

all this talk of racism certainly has dampened my enthusiam about going.

Don't let it dampened your enthusiam about being Japan. It's just nice to be aware of it but it is getting harder and harder to find it nowadays.

From what I understand, they are hardcore people that only follow the emperor and hate anyone and everything other then JAPAN. Any kind of foreign relations, and I hear they start riots, fights, crimes, etc..

I haven't seen them that much either in the 10 years that I've been in Japan and it has been a long time since I've seen them. I know they are still around but nothing to worry about, I think.
