    Those Japanese parties you're talking about are definitely xenophobic in some cases. Those players have the mindset that "foreigners are bad", "I don't want to play with a foreigner", and there's really no logic behind those statements. It's just plain xenophobia. In many cases, it doesn't even matter if that foreigner can read & write Japanese.

    That behavior of barging in and acting like you own the place isn't really xenophobic. It's rude and disrespectful but I definitely haven't seen any "xenophobia" among the English community. If anything they're the opposite (straight up weaboos). American people (yeah I know not everyone here is American) are usually NOT xenophobic. We are so used to foreign things due to our history and geography. Melting pot and all that... foreign stuff is natural to us.

    I don't think you can really fault people for not knowing Japanese because it's not a very useful language to learn, so it isn't taught in schools. People who know Japanese went out of their way to learn it (which you can't expect someone to do specifically for PSO2) or they come from a Japanese family... etc.
    Weeaboo, gaijin.... those two words coming from the mouth of a Japanese person feel the same to me as if a white guy was calling a black guy the "n" word.

    Because I feel like xenophobia is the same thing as racial supremacy, I take it as hard as anyone who is discriminated against because of racism. But instead of get angry about it, I get intimidated.


    It's why playing a Japanese game was a no-no for me - what with the apparent lack of desire to show the Japanese any form of respect here in the States (our main focus, according to the flaccid old white trash frogs, is to destroy the Islams and claim their oil fields - but then again, we have our own problems here in the land of the red white & blue).

    Seems like your posts often go off on a tangent... it's a little hard to keep up.

    Xenophobia isn't the same as racial supremacy. There is some similarities, though.

    Racial supremacy is rooted in a fear of inferiority, layered with ignorance with a candy coating of some xenophobic tendencies

    Xenophobia is largely based on cultural preservation and fear of change.
