You have to wonder if the "Yasuke" myth started out as a joke or a way to insult the Japanese. A joke to undermine the Japanese by saying, "this country is so backwards that they made a nigger (or neger if Dutch, I guess) a warrior of nobility," or an insult by saying, "look at how undeveloped these Japanese are that they are fascinated by black skin!"

These days Yasuke is now just another tool to deconstruct Japanese history and destroy the cultural identity of Japan. It's a wedge to slowly split apart Japan by using that one black guy as a means to justify the worship of blacks and import street-shitters into the country.
