To keep things polite - that's a bit over the top to call it 'ultra-nationalism' and then in nation of 1.5 billion to point out... 2 attacks altogether for last few months? That's like what, a weak school week in US in comparison?
If its there, and this is first time hearing about it for me and seemingly for others, please provide some serious proofs for such serious accusations.

- agency 2y agoI suppose I'm lucky to live in the US where we have no problems with ultranationalist sentiment and racially motivated hate crimes. I wonder if any anti-Japanese sentiment has to do with the fact that, to this day, the ruling party/LDP actively denies the numerous war crimes perpetrated against the Chinese in the second world war, including the Nanjing massacre. But I guess it must be all that propaganda. Though the Chinese may need to fine-tune their approach, since per the Newsweek article you linked "Among Japanese respondents, 92.2 percent had an unfavorable opinion of China, up from 87.3 percent in 2022. On the Chinese side, 62.9 percent viewed Japan negatively, about the same as the previous year."
- dgacmu 2y agoYour posting history seems to primarily consist of an anti-China narrative. For example, "Also, they could just remind people that China released COVID which killed millions and cost countries billions." (which, well, those are definitely words.) China is ... complex. But you seem to be consistently pushing a specific agenda in the way you choose to address it. Why?
