    Westerners do not care about indigenous or minorities of other countries. As far as they concerned, they’re all part of the same race/ethnicity/culture. E.g. “Ainu people are still Asians which means it homogenous!!!” or “Pashtun? Tajik? I don’t care! They’re all freaking afghani Muslims!”

    Only the west is “not homogenous” because white people can only tell you apart if you stand next to them and your skin is darker.

      It’s like you said in that other post about Japan: this site is weird sometimes. In that post (https://hexbear.net/comment/4649427) people were running around saying “not every person is Japan is XYZ” but in this post all of a sudden it’s “oh yeah Japan is super xenophobic.” It’s not wonder that the western left is completely impotent. It’s this kind of dumb ass flip flopping depending on their own personal emotions…
