What is it with westerners and assuming they know more about Japan than actual Japanese people?

Not Japanese (ethnic Chinese) but it hits a nerve (not your comment, no worries) from a recent convo I had myself tbh.

Westerners will jump to the worst assumptions regardless, but there's also never a shortage of self-hating tokens seeking white approval. Not just for Asians, it's obvious to anyone looking it's an issue for all non-white/non-westerners honestly. Westerners just gobble that shit up, the only thing they love more than shitting on other races/nationalities is finding self-hating compradors to do the dirty work of saying the most ignorant or bigoted shit for them (and not just kiss, straight up deepthroat imperialist boot in the process)
