Re: Japan doesnt make it into the hatred list (none / 0)

Don't be absurd, it cannot be xenophobia to hate the culture you live in.

And Japan didn't make the list only because I don't know where to place it. It's just too different.

That holds for the ASEAN countries in general. The same for Russia too

So you hate everything you know? I hope we will never meet!

Re: Japan doesnt make it into the hatred list (none / 0)

I don't obsess enough about my hatred list to figure out the fuzzy boundary where it becomes dislike to where it becomes [shrug] to where it becomes like to where it becomes admiration.

Sweden I admire, France I love. The USA and UK, I positively loathe. Russia and Japan raise ambivalent feelings. Everything else in the middle, I can't be arsed to figure out.

Re: Japan doesnt make it into the hatred list (4.00 / 3)

I don't make the rules, but I was not aware that ET was a place one could come to share their hatred of a country.

Of an ideology or regime, perhaps, but a country? This is not the appropriate venue for that.
