"Japan is racist." Most of those who claim that don't show us specific examples, so that I don't know what they want to say. Interestingly, for example, Australians kill more than one hundred Asians every year due to hate crimes, but they criticize Japanese people as racists although there are almost no foreign people killed due to racism in Japan. I have seen a Russian got angry against Japan very much. He claimed that Japs enslaved white people. The white people he said were Ainu. We had pressured them as minority people. It is true. However, we hadn't treated them as slaves. The issue is his claim itself was very racist. Obviously he was not interested in that white people had enslaved colored people, but he couldn't accept that white people were treated as slaves. Probably he never thought that it was sinful for Russia to kill Nagy Imre. Like this, most people, especially most white people, who criticize others as racists, are racist.
