btw ask the Chinese what they think of the Japanese... cant stand this juvenile love affair that some gaming fanboys have with a nation they know nothing about. |
What does liking Japan's pop culture have to do with anything with Japan's past? Even if they knew about Japan's history, does that make anime, manga, Japanese cuisine, music, etc any less enjoyable for those people? Does it make it "off limits"?
How does even knowing about Japan's history make you an expert in what all the Japanese people are like? It's an entirely new generation. Do you believe that sin and "evilness" are passed down hereditarily or something?
You can just generalize millions of people just by their nationality. You're the one being fucking juvenile.

Cause their are who people are pumping up Japan as the paradise of the world. And some get so fanatic about Japan that everything Japan does is awesome even if it is cruel. Kowenicki has no problem with people who like Japan Culture anime porn etc.... He can't stand those people who are so fanatic like the ones you can find on some J-forums posting stuff as 'I wish Japan had won the war because my country(USA) sucks and all the stuff that happened in China/nanking are all lies of the communists and Western Media'

Who pumped up Japan as paradise? Who said Japan history is not bad?
IN THIS THREAD THAT IS!
There are however some people here claiming I hava an obssesed hate for USA which I have not. I`ve never said it.
Tell me if it`s not wrong accusing people randomly.
So kowenicki failed when he blindly believed that blablabla badgenome(have to defend my proud country, becuase im so AFRAID) blablabla for saying that I love Japan and hate all of usa.

There always will be fanatics, but I don't believe that not even the majority of Japanophiles (which vary greatly within themselves, from people who are interested in the classical history, martial arts, pop culture, etc etc) bring up Japan as "perfect". I don't think there's nothing wrong for admiring it and thinking that it's an ideal place, a "paradise" as you say, but I don't think most people, being rational, will think that Japan is absolutely perfect. You can't just point to the very tiny minority that will always exist, and act like it's the majority.
Again, having a romanticized vision of a country or thinking that it is an ideal one is not the same as thinking a country is absolutely perfect.
