There is but that level of sanity isn’t what’s on offer in the comments so far or in the article itself…people were literally asking , what’s wrong with etho-nationalism in Japan , as if we’ve not had that issue before ?

Huh...we've had "ethno-nationalism" before and had no problems, and had it before with problems. I'm entirely comfortable with Japan managing their immigration however they see fit. The idea that they should design their society around the ideology of some stupid fools in Western academia is absurd to me. It's ok for them to value their own extraordinary culture, I'm not threatened by that.

If you can't understand why revoking the basic human rights of 3 million+ people are and the devastating effects such a move that would have on the Japanese people themselves, then you're really not worth the time.

I personally think the Japanese are beyond this level of stupidity, America, I'm not so sure.

I've no idea what your talking about.

I know...and that is why you shouldn't comment on things you don't understand, because you're ignorant.

I was thinking more that you should stop with the dumb hyperbole that is completely disconnected from reality.

Give an example of when we've had enthno-nationalism before with no problems, and an example of when we've had it with problems.

I suspect you'll discover that, in context, there's more than meets the eye here than "sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't."
