Japan’s Diverse Olympic Stars Reflect a Country That’s Changing (Slowly)
Multiracial athletes like Naomi Osaka and Rui Hachimura are helping to redefine what it means to be Japanese. But they are often still seen as outsiders.
By Hannah Beech and Hikari Hida
July 24, 2021, 3:17 a.m. ETTOKYO — When the Japanese Olympic team marched at the opening ceremony in Tokyo on Friday, towering over the rest of the delegation was the flag-bearer Rui Hachimura, a rising N.B.A. star who was born and raised in Japan. …
At least 35 members of the 583-strong Japanese Olympic team are multiracial. They are considered medal contenders in tennis and judo and will compete in boxing, sailing, sprinting, rugby and fencing, among other sports.
Their ranks include two of the highest-wattage athletes on Team Japan: Mr. Hachimura and Naomi Osaka, the tennis champion whose father is Haitian American and whose mother is Japanese. On Friday, Ms. Osaka, 23, climbed a flight of stairs etched into a pyramid shaped like Mount Fuji and lit the Olympic cauldron perched on top.
The Japanese should have gotten the 100% Japanese baseball pitcher/slugger Shohei Ohtani, who is currently flabbergasting the North American MLB with his Babe Ruth-like combo of pitching and home run hitting, to light the torch.
That two of the opening ceremony’s star roles went to multiracial athletes underscores how eager Japan is to present a diverse face to the world. Ms. Osaka’s and Mr. Hachimura’s popularity in Japan had already been confirmed when Nissin, the instant noodle manufacturer, affixed their faces to Cup Noodle packaging, an advertising honor akin to appearing on a cereal box.
But even as Japan celebrates the accomplishments of its “hafu” athletes — “half,” as in half-Japanese and half-something else — it must still contend with xenophobia in a society whose ideas of nationhood are tied to race.
Japan’s growing roster of multiracial Olympians reflects how the country, with its fast-aging population, has had to crack open its doors to immigration, despite a powerful tradition of isolation. Today, about one in 50 children born in Japan has a foreign-born parent, according to the nation’s health ministry.
… An unspoken hierarchy in Japan prizes paler skin over darker shades. Darker-skinned Japanese endure racist barbs. (Japanese with one parent from other East Asian countries can face bullying, too.)
Mr. Okazawa, the boxer, grew up in a snowbound city in northern Japan, reciting Buddhist sutras with his grandmother. He has never been to Ghana and does not speak English. Still, he said, he was recruited to his high school boxing team because a classmate thought he looked the part.
Which turned out to be accurate.
The country’s sporting establishment has hailed the successes of mixed-race athletes. But their accomplishments are often characterized in the discredited language of eugenics: fast-twitch muscles, explosive reflexes, inherent physical power.
The discredited language of eugenics is discredited, otherwise it would appear to explain a lot about, say, why the anchor man on 2016 Japanese silver medal team in the 4x100m relay team was half-black.
…“If you are hafu, people will always compare high performance with some sort of genetic triumph,” Mr. Sumoto said. In the nation’s popular culture, Black Japanese are often slotted into limited career categories: athlete, rapper, beauty queen.
Just like all over the world
One motto of the Tokyo Games is “unity in diversity,” a point made with a fleet of drones that hovered over the Olympic Stadium on Friday and formed a giant, shimmering globe, shortly before Ms. Osaka lit the cauldron. …
But Tokyo itself remains remarkably monochromatic. Only about 4 percent of residents were born outside Japan, according to the city government — about twice the national figure. (By contrast, more than 35 percent of London and New York residents were born abroad.)

From the earliest recorded history, Japanese scholars, wise men and kings have all prayed that someday their land would be blessed with Africans. Now, slowly, it is. Today the Africans are only “athlete, rapper, beauty queen,” but tomorrow they will be “doctor, lawyer, president”. I foresee a future that is very very bright.
Neither will I. The Olympics has always been about globo-homo propaganda, from its very inception. Needless to say, Coubertain was a freemason.
We are in the midst of a collective mental breakdown caused by the ascendancy of women and the withdrawal of men. All females are now portrayed as heroines rising in victory against the unseen forces of oppression. She is the Hero With a Thousand Hairstyles. It is the plot basis for all new Young Adult fiction. If she is a Woman of Color then no special accoutrements are necessary and the product placement is implied. If she has pale skin then those colorful shoes or the latest digital device enabling her artistic/scientific genius can signal her struggle on the path to woke self-actualization. Fat black chicks running uphill with resolve to conquer their weight. Devoted black fathers changing diapers and just being great dads. Effeminate white fellows prepping Covid shots for intact black families. A poet reads loudly, something about how we conquer hate and will not stand down because it makes some people feel uncomfortable. And my personal favorite, the public service tutorial on Anti-Asian Hate featuring cartoon white racists abusing orientals, who are then protected through “Bystander Intervention” whereby a WOC uses her multi-tasking skills to delegate a crowd response that saves the Asians from what are obviously Trump supporters.
But this is not causal. The mental breakdown is caused by minoritarianism--pushed and propagandized to dominance by Jews.
The problem is that the rejection of minoritarianism is ... logic, reason, math; empiricism; standing and speaking for truth; defense, pride in your people, history, culture. Male traits.
It does not involve ... being "nice" and desiring conformity. Female traits. And once minoritarianism gained market share female traits of conformity and compliance are absolutely toxic.
The Western disease is that Western males were too "nice", obliging, "fair". To minorities and to women. It created a perfect storm of destruction. We allowed minoritarianism--and its excellent propagandists--to first gain a foothold, then establish itself. And once that happens then our own (now liberated) women instead of being allies, become defectors--demanding compliance with the new ideology ... which literally means the death of civilization.
What's happened in the West is a stark lesson to any culture, that wants to survive. You should never allow hostile minorities to have any presence, even a foothold. And regardless, you can never allow any minority--anyone but yourselves--to create the dominant ideology/narrative. Once you do that--even if your men sober up and object--you'll have a huge slice of your own women compliant with the new narrative, ergo basically traitors.Replies: @InnerCynic

They didn’t care about Japan’s notorious homogeneity until they got tired of having it pointed out that Japan wasn’t being invaded by migrants…thus giving the lie to their claim that it was rich countries being invaded, not just white countries.
So it’s Job One to make sure Japan gets trashed too,lest the race hatred of our ‘overlords’ be too apparent. The reach of their propaganda encompasses even the Empire of the Sun.

Of course the NYT chooses to hype the racial angle, but they do that in just about every article they publish now don’t they?
I think that’s reading too much into things. Hachimura and Osaka were the logical choices. Nothing to do with race.
Rui Hachimura is one of the most famous Japanese athletes in the world now, and he’s tall, which is something countries always look for in a flag bearer.
Naomi Osaka is the most famous Japanese athlete in the world. (Maybe the most famous female athlete in the world?) So it makes perfect sense for her to light the torch. Compare her to other candidates:
Shohei Ohtani: No way the Angles are gonna let the likely AL MVP miss several games.
Yuzuru Hanyu: The most successful recent Japanese Olympian. But he’s a figure skater and this is the summer games.
Rikako Ikee: Very promising swimmer who overcame leukemia and somehow managed to get back to Olympic form. Definitely an inspiring story, but this is her first Olympics and she hasn’t won anything yet.

In general I somewhat agree with you, although lately Osaka has become more famous for neuroticism than actual tennis. From what I gather, this is not something the Japanese would normally celebrate–at least not officially.
Heaven forbid the historical occupants of a country enjoy the fruits of their accomplishments and culture without having to give that up to newcomers.
Also screw Naomi Osaka. She veers between her Japanese and woke persona as it suits her, and claims to have anxiety and cannot participate in press conferences but somehow is features in major magazines on a regular basis. Japan can keep her – she should make it her full time home.
Diversity is ultimately brought about by one group, ahem, which Japan is lacking from (at least from within).
Flight from Asian.
I can’t wait for the next Olympics to be held in Africa. Will it be Somalia, Ghana or Zimbabwe that get’s the honor of bribing the selection committee?
Japan is a hollowed out civilisation, much like yours.
They lost the war just like you did in 1945, only it took you 40 years for you to realise. You yourself never did.
You think you’re better, your children disagree, they must pay the price, while you live free.
You get to post from your home, bromides about how good you have it, while your own people are dying on the streets from jew opioids, thrown destitute by your fear of the flu, your so called free-market essentialism overrun when it comes to protecting you from the flu.
The mass of White Americans are destitute and dying while you get to gloat and post glad tidings about how good you’ve got it, with only 10 ten years to live, and how you think the last entitlements they have must be vacuumed up to ensure you live those extra days you deserve.
You have no idea how broken the younger generations are. I suspect you couldn’t give a shit.
At least there were the Sailor Fuku gals.
The DIEversity scum will never stop until every country is turned into a sh#thole
The reason they’re famous is that the fame makers are Trusting the Globohomo (as in homogeneous – Imagine there’s no races, like Nipponese for instance) Plan.
It’s hilarious but as soon as we saw the tall black Japanese flag bearer, my son immediately blurted out, “Must be a basketball player!”. And as soon as I saw the lone Chinese female flag bearer for Monaco, I immediately thought “ping pong player”, and we were both right. At least the black guy has a Japanese name and was born and raised in Japan, the Chinese ping pong players representing all other countries still have their Chinese names and probably do not speak a word of the native language. This kind of passport shopping diminishes the spirit of the games and should be banned. Olympics is about friendly competition between nations, to bring countries and their people together, allow people to root for their countries and countrymen, it’s not about medals or individuals, give the native people their chance to play!
I cracked up when they sang the song Imagine, which begins with “Imagine there’s no country…”, well, to start, there would be no Olympics!
“Beauty queen”? Even in Africa, fer gosh sakes, those women are not claimed to be beautiful.

Curious if any of these Hafu athletes has a Japanese father.
There are many subcultures of Japanese girls, and one is a black-worshipping in which the girls wear hip-hop clothes, put their in corn rows, and hang out around American GIs. It probably has a real name, but I like to call it "mud shark sushi".
If Osaka hadn’t lit the flame it would have stayed unlit.
Moscow is even more monochromatic, although perhaps less mono-national: 92% Russians, the rest mostly Ukrainians etc.
Osaka, of course, does not speak a word of Japanese other than greetings and pleasantries and needs an interpreter because she cannot understand it either.
Unfortunately, I can see this being somewhat effective in cracking the shell of Japanese ethnocentrism. The power of sportsball is unrivalled – especially on the impressionable young – and ‘glob’ (or whoever it is that coordinates these offensives) knows it.
During the George Floyd riots I saw shocked Japanese athletes retweeting articles from the Japan Times which claimed police were a ‘leading cause of death’ for US black men. Ah, such naivety…
I doubt they’ll progress so far so fast as say, Sweden (let alone the core west of USA/GB/France) but I’d guess lasting damage will be done, before the current Western model is totally discredited (surely can’t be more than 20-30 years? far too long for us here, though). Too bad, they have a nice/interesting country and history, and I wouldn’t wish what’s happened to us to anyone, for the sake of a fad.
I’ve noted a growing number of half-black athletes from unusual places over the last 10 years; in the sport I follow most closely (wrestling) Japan has a teen girl hafu, who apparently was raised by her single (Japanese) mother, in poor circumstances, but her success at sport has brought some cheer to the household (funny how these patterns repeat everywhere, huh?) – there’s also one from Poland, and Ukraine has a half-Rwandan male competing at a high level whose father came over in Soviet times for air force training. Those wandering soldiers are quite the weapon…
France, of course, is the unrivalled leader in ‘blackening’ of their sports teams and also in their culture/media representatives. It’s almost comical if it wasn’t so sad. The Latino-isation of the USA is also growingly obvious in its sportspeople.
I posted this elsewhere but it seems more relevant here.
This article on Osaka is amazing and in a way sums up the confused way the twin impulses of wanting to reduce some forms of ethnocentrism (As barriers to ‘diversity!’) and enhance others (As battering rams for ‘diversity!’) in modern progressive discourse come to clash. The author wants you to accept Osaka is Japanese and not only Japanese but no less Japanese than anybody damnit! But also, how dare you deny that she isn’t not Japanese! Blackness (The author does a tell and kind of ignores her Haitianness because only her blackness matters to him.) and Japanesness are both one drop discrete statuses.

Stop Erasing Naomi Osaka’s Blackness
By Elliot Sang
Most bi-ethnic people tend to choose one identity to identify with if they can pass for it. It seems to make them more content. To have an identity, a tribe. For those who can’t like the bi-racial author of the piece and Osaka, it tends to be a constant source of angst. Even in the final paragraph the author reveals his incoherent demands about Osaka are just fronts and copes, even he doesn’t believe Osaka is just as Japanese as the Emperor anymore than he believes he is as Chinese as Xi Jinping.
He wants people to call Osaka Japanese and accept her as 100% precisely because she isn’t, he wants to redefine what Japanese means to soothe his own neuroses. Which, for a half-Chinese, half-Dominican living in the US is pretty weird.

My ex was Japanese. We had five kids together and none of them look Asian at all. While they are all “hafu”, that’s true, you wouldn’t know it. Somehow my side of the genetic equation reigned. On the other hand I know of a man I used to work with who was half, here again his father was Anglo, and looked as Japanese as could be. Not half but full blown Japanese. I’d never seen anything like it even after living in Japan for many years but there you go. The majority of folks in Japan would look down upon any mixing with the swarthy types as being anathema. Its something you don’t do and you’re likely a whore if you do. There are no brownie points for doing so. Pointing out a few examples to please the multi-cultists is only for optics. These are few and far between and they’ve kept their society together by shunning any open door policy on it too. The blessing being that theirs is an island nation and not easily invaded

Osaka is quite a trip and self-promoter. Talking to the press makes her too anxious after a match, so she paid a fine, and skipped both the French and Wimbledon majors. This action gained her praise from other athletes who claim similar issues talking to the press. And it certainly raised her profile, where her name in women’s tennis has now eclipsed Serena’s.
But she’s not too shy to bear her body in a bikini on the cover of Sports Illustrated. I’ll bet she talked to the press after that issue. And I’ll bet she’s not too shy to talk to the press during the fan-less Olympics, where the pressure is on her to win a gold medal for her native Japan, though she’s spent most of her life in the States.
Last year, when she won the pandemic plagued US Open, she publicly supported BLM, and, during her seven match wins, wore a different black mask onto the court each with the name of a killed person of color. By her actions, Osaka’s no shrinking violet.

How Japan has changed. Does anyone remember “Nakasone’s Ayamachi” of 1986?
This is presented in a neutral tone, but of course the implication is that this is bad. Why is it bad? Why is it bad for Japan to be full of Japanese?
Actually most Japanese would read it and think it is bad – What!? 4%!? That’s way too high!
Me neither. I’ll wait for the next big globalist propaganda show – Cyber Polygon.

There are 126M Japanese on an island chain with a land mass of California (pop 39M). Perhaps a little depopulation wouldn’t hurt the Japanese, as long as their best and brightest are having the kids.
Japan’s hafus on parade during the Olympics has the feel of a PR campaign (the NYT certainly ain’t buying it). I expect the Japanese are watching America’s suicide by diversity, and taking measures to avoid our fate.
“Only about 4 percent of residents were born outside Japan, according to the city government — about twice the national figure.”
Early in the story the claim is made that 1 in 50 children born in Japan have a foreign parent. Wouldn’t this add up to considerably more than 2% of the national figure? Or perhaps it will over time?
The math doesn’t quite sound accurate. Could it also be that Western Media for their vaunted arrogance, aren’t as fluent in Japanese language as the Japanese are fluent in English, and thus can give out various statistics they think will satisfy the foreigners regarding diversity in their nation?

The only immigrants Japan has recruited for employment are from South East Asia (Whose long term presence in Japan is not really encouraged and whose children have yet to appear anywhere in Japan’s athletic roster) and then only in the tiny numbers that could ever be justified. This is a weird neoliberal obsession that stems from a level of autism that is staggering. In China they now have fully automated convenience stores, as does the US with it’s small numbers of Amazon stores. So one of the only roles immigrants are recruited for in Japan is fast to become an obsolete one.
In truth no country is in danger of ceasing to exist due to cyclical demographic trends. One generation facing an unfavourable situation to have children is superseded by one which begets a boom. Thus has it ever been. And how the problem is ameliorated by policies which further reduce fertility is beyond me.
So people in Japan suffer higher taxes or lower public services with more money going to pay for elder care for the 10-20 years it takes for the baby boom generation to retire/die in. So what? How is that so intolerable that the solution is to ethnically displace the population in a way that will assuredly cause much trauma and lower quality of life for everyone?
Just say you hate and fear cohesive societies and decent wages already, the pretense is making my blood boil.

Then this gem:
As statement of the situation–fine. But “remarkably”? That’s called normal. I go to a city in Japan–full of Japanese. Go to a city in China–full of Chinese. Go to a city in India–full of Indians. Normal. That’s how civilization works. You’re supposed to go to London and find it full of the English! (With a sprinkling of other British Isles types.)

The West created the clearest elucidation of concepts like “logic” and “math”, as well as empiricism–“hey that’s how the world really works”. But basic logic and math seems to be beyond so many supposedly “educated” people now.

This is why Republicans don’t want the Vaccine:
So there’s an article that has been appearing at the top of facebook for a week for MANY people every time they log into facebook…it’s appearing under local news from California to Idaho to Alabama…
It’s an interview with an Alabama doctor named Brytney Cobia who gleefully tells Covid patients who beg for the covid vaccine that it’s too late and that she is going to intubate and kill them (because begging for the vaccine is a definite sign of ARDs) and then after she’s killed them with ARDs protocol, even though they are Covid sufferers, she tells their family and friends to get the vaccine
So Brytney Cobia is the daughter-in-law of the attorney Paula Cobia who was the woman representing the accusers of Roy Moore
Paula Cobia’s twitter is a non-stop multiple twitter post daily barrage of white, conservative, Trump hatred to the point of ‘Does this woman take a break to use the restroom?’
Brytney, and her husband Miles, have had multiple interviews with the national media over the course of the pandemic…so they are really plugged in to the Leftist Network

During the George Floyd riots I saw shocked Japanese athletes retweeting articles from the Japan Times which claimed police were a 'leading cause of death' for US black men. Ah, such naivety...
I doubt they'll progress so far so fast as say, Sweden (let alone the core west of USA/GB/France) but I'd guess lasting damage will be done, before the current Western model is totally discredited (surely can't be more than 20-30 years? far too long for us here, though). Too bad, they have a nice/interesting country and history, and I wouldn't wish what's happened to us to anyone, for the sake of a fad.
I've noted a growing number of half-black athletes from unusual places over the last 10 years; in the sport I follow most closely (wrestling) Japan has a teen girl hafu, who apparently was raised by her single (Japanese) mother, in poor circumstances, but her success at sport has brought some cheer to the household (funny how these patterns repeat everywhere, huh?) - there's also one from Poland, and Ukraine has a half-Rwandan male competing at a high level whose father came over in Soviet times for air force training. Those wandering soldiers are quite the weapon...
France, of course, is the unrivalled leader in 'blackening' of their sports teams and also in their culture/media representatives. It's almost comical if it wasn't so sad. The Latino-isation of the USA is also growingly obvious in its sportspeople.Replies: @Hodag

I suppose that Jews, being a minority, feel more comfortable or feel more in their element in places where there isn’t a mono-ethnic majority, I suppose to be less conspicuous, and also because of their paranoia about persecution. However, is that really “good for the Jews”, long term?
Also, I don’t know if this fanaticism of multiculturalism by Jews seems to be a more recent development; for centuries, Jews lived as a minority among majority ethnic countries, and while of course there were problems for both sides, it didn’t seem to be their main concern.
Btw, Jews can be persecuted just as well in multicultural countries, or perhaps even more. As Tom Lehrer used to sing, “Oh the protestants hate the catholics and the catholics hate the protestants, and the hindus hate the muslims, and everybody hates the jews”
No. The result is an upgrade for the Bantu side and a downgrade for the white or Asian side.

The Nips know which side of bread to buttah – side that lands on the top!
I’m sympathetic to this line of thought. The attitudes/behavior of women in the West often seems to be a disaster.
But this is not causal. The mental breakdown is caused by minoritarianism–pushed and propagandized to dominance by Jews.
The problem is that the rejection of minoritarianism is … logic, reason, math; empiricism; standing and speaking for truth; defense, pride in your people, history, culture. Male traits.
It does not involve … being “nice” and desiring conformity. Female traits. And once minoritarianism gained market share female traits of conformity and compliance are absolutely toxic.
The Western disease is that Western males were too “nice”, obliging, “fair”. To minorities and to women. It created a perfect storm of destruction. We allowed minoritarianism–and its excellent propagandists–to first gain a foothold, then establish itself. And once that happens then our own (now liberated) women instead of being allies, become defectors–demanding compliance with the new ideology … which literally means the death of civilization.
What’s happened in the West is a stark lesson to any culture, that wants to survive. You should never allow hostile minorities to have any presence, even a foothold. And regardless, you can never allow any minority–anyone but yourselves–to create the dominant ideology/narrative. Once you do that–even if your men sober up and object–you’ll have a huge slice of your own women compliant with the new narrative, ergo basically traitors.
Japanese ingenuity is so far ahead of other nations that I’m surprised they haven’t managed to make an animatronic George Floyd who can beat everyone else in every event. Imagine the pure woke catharsis of watching Robot George kneeling on a blonde blue-eyed Finn during the Judo final.

What's happened in the West is a stark lesson to any culture, that wants to survive. You should never allow hostile minorities to have any presence, even a foothold. And regardless, you can never allow any minority--anyone but yourselves--to create the dominant ideology/narrative. Once you do that--even if your men sober up and object--you'll have a huge slice of your own women compliant with the new narrative, ergo basically traitors.Replies: @InnerCynic
I’m reminded of a Turkish engineer I worked with many years ago. When someone asked why he’d sent his wife back to Turkey after she’d gotten “uppity” with him about something, he said “You westerners don’t know how to handle your women”…. At the time I was flabbergasted at the statement…. fast forward to today and it makes more sense.
If the japs don’t start playing ball, airlift a plane full of gangbangers there. Wouldn’t they sort them out, walking up behind those old asians and sucker punching them in the head. They wouldn’t know what hit them. I can guarantee that it wouldn’t be long before the japs learnt to appreciate the intricacies of multiculturalism.

Boys will be boys, and imperialism, competition, is an immutable aspect of the human condition. The question is if it can be managed in a far-sighted way. The Japanese, in their quest to be "honorary whites", ended up being coerced to Negro Worship.
The PRC, despite many false starts, enters modernization on her own terms. The legitimacy of PRC's claim on Tibet, is not especially stronger than that of Japan's on Manchuria. But at least Tibetans are racially similar enough and relations are managed ok, so far.Replies: @Che Guava, @Chrisnonymous
Japan never had a claim on Manchurha. That is why it was set up as a quasi-independent state. OTOH, surprising numbers of old people, including a nearby Shinto priest, were born there.
The mentality was more like ‘The Mongols and Manchu’（both culturakly and linguistically related） ‘had Chhna for centurhes, now it is our turn!’
And Ishiwara and the Kanto Gun officers who engineered the Mukden Incident, were entirely against the escalation of war south of the Great Wall.Correct. Japan even claimed that since they use kanji and venerated Confucius, they had even further legitimacy to rule* China than Mongols/Manchus.
But their invasion strategy of China was a total failure, instead of following precedents with a cavalry blitzkrieg like this one along the North-South axis (Jurchen's Sack of Northern Song),

Earlier the Japanese Empire was facing the expanding Tzarist Russian Empire. When Japan worked against Tzarist Russia, it had the blessings of the ((West)) as ((they)) wanted to destroy Tsarist Russia, whose currency had not faced any inflation for centuries. But when the Japanese Empire became a potential threat to the Soviets, forces in the West immediately became anti-Japanese.

Many Chinese would jump to claim that it was a puppet state, or even an invasion. But actually, you are correct. Manchukuo was not entirely a puppet. Technically Japan’s suzerainty over Manchuria is somewhat weaker than PRC’s over Tibet. And their industrial management, quite competent.

Very few. Even when the other hafu is white, it is usually a white father. Only in the case of essentially imported brides, do you see majority Japanese fathers–that is when the other hafu is Filipino, Thai, etc
There are many subcultures of Japanese girls, and one is a black-worshipping in which the girls wear hip-hop clothes, put their in corn rows, and hang out around American GIs. It probably has a real name, but I like to call it “mud shark sushi”.
I think that’s reading too much into things. Hachimura and Osaka were the logical choices. Nothing to do with race.
Rui Hachimura is one of the most famous Japanese athletes in the world now, and he’s tall, which is something countries always look for in a flag bearer.
Naomi Osaka is the most famous Japanese athlete in the world. (Maybe the most famous female athlete in the world?) So it makes perfect sense for her to light the torch. Compare her to other candidates:
Shohei Ohtani: No way the Angles are gonna let the likely AL MVP miss several games.
Yuzuru Hanyu: The most successful recent Japanese Olympian. But he’s a figure skater and this is the summer games.
Rikako Ikee: Very promising swimmer who overcame leukemia and somehow managed to get back to Olympic form. Definitely an inspiring story, but this is her first Olympics and she hasn’t won anything yet.Replies: @slumber_j, @Hannah Katz, @Chrisnonymous
You probably don’t follow tennis, but the rest of the world does and Kei Nishikori is better known around the world than Shohei Ohtani and probably as well known as Naomi Osaka, who figures large in American news. Kei Nishikori is 100% Japanese, grew up in Japan, and acts with dignity on the world tennis circuit. He would have been a better choice than pink-haired George Foreman in drag.

I completely disagree with this. The historic Chinese empire had a claim to Tibet that was no stronger than a potential claim on India or Turkey. But the PRC has no claim on Tibet because the PRC is not the continuation of the Chinese empire. The Han people and Xi Jinping stand in relation to Tibet via the PRC just as the Russian people and party leaders stood in relation to Eastern Europe via the USSR. It is just international Communism. When Xi Jinping refers to “Chinese people of all ethnicities” in his recent speech, he puts the lie to the historical claims. Uighurs, Mongolians, Tibetans…. they should all be set free with their own ethno-national homelands.

Zaid should think about how US taxpayers are forced to fund loans for immigrants and their children; loans that they find unavailable for themselves and their children. I find it infuriating every time a wokester tells me about how immigrants are so innovative and industrious, proven by how they start more businesses. If they’d let me keep my money instead of taking it for immigrants, I’d start more businesses on my own.
Yes the snotty slimeballs in NYT decide what it means to be Japanese or what it means to be English. Talk about a type of colonialism. “Redefine what it means to be Japanese or German” basically means, race genocide, getting rid of all the high IQ races on Earth.

Japanese Empire was facing a Communist threat in the East, a Red Wall of Russia’s Far East and China. Manchuria was to be a buffer State after the Soviets took Mongolia.
