I still speak a reasonable amount of Japanese, and am familiar with the social norms. I think I would be fine, despite being white as a picket fence.
That’s not to say I am dismissing the xenophobia - it’s real, and it’s one of the aspects of Japanese society that troubles me the most, in a general sense.

If Europe goes to fash, my options narrow to Japan or SK or A/NZ, and none of those have the same geopolitical weight as the EU.
The EU is, IMO, the last best hope for democracy in the world these days, in the context of a geopolitically significant polity that is (mostly) cohesive.
And I hope that statement ages like wine, not milk (or, like the B5 S3 intro)

- Comment on US panel releases over 33,000 pages of Epstein files 1 week ago:
Because it’s pretty much all public knowledge. There’s nothing novel there. It’s very obviously a distraction and obfuscation tactic. It’s a tactic commonly used as a defense strategy by corporate attorneys, especially when defending against private parties: you simply inundate the opposing side with reams of borderline irrelevant bullshit. Makes it substantially harder to find pertinent documents, and also serves to delay the discovery that maybe something important was left out.
