Why are there even Kurds in Japan? The Japanese are notoriously racist, and I would imagine Arabs and arab-adjacent ethnicities fall somewhere around rats in their hierarchy of races.
I can't imagine anyone inviting them there, nor can I understand why they would choose to immigrate there when there are far more "welcoming" destinations in the western world.
Or maybe they're just normal and the Western whites are the ones that are currently abnormal? This kind of argument reminds me of how the Little Mermaid movie tanked in China and the good little "conservatives" rushed to blame China as "the REAL racists" rather than admitting that the live action remake was simply a trash movie.

You say that like being racist is a bad thing.
All I know is that if i wanted to steelman a “racism is bad” argument, I wouldn’t use Japan as an example.
Is it bad tho?
