CNN — President Joe Biden on Wednesday called close US ally Japan “xenophobic” at a Washington, D.C., fundraiser, just weeks after lauding the US-Japan alliance at a state dinner.

The president made the remark at the off-camera event while arguing that Japan, along with India, Russia and China, would perform better economically if the countries embraced immigration more.

We have always had some immigration, and I don’t believe it will ever stop completely. But if you mean Mayorkas style immigration is a good thing, you are insane.

“It’s actually good for our economy.
Now is the time to stop immigration.”

It’s going to be just wonderful for our economy now that several million military-age invaders/terrorists are here. I can’t wait.

More evidence of FJB’s “diplomatic skills.”

“Immigration. What nation has not been ecstatic about the ‘diversity’ caused by allowing more Muslims into their country?”

I’m sure Japan would love to invite America’s well behaved protestors to University of Tokyo to raise Japanese consciousness about DEI and how unfairly Hamas is treated.

When Obama promised to fundamentally change America, he meant it. What we are seeing now is the result and full flowering of his importing hundreds of thousands of Muslims and settling them together.

He should go down as the single most intentionally destructive human America has ever produced.

“The one PUSHING IT ON US for over 100 years...ISRAEL.”

Israel hasn’t been a country for 100 years, you idiot.

I think Japan and China are making the right call in keeping a lid on the importation of muslims.

Their strategists can make the right call. When Trump tried to do something about the danger, the “experts” called him xenophobic.

Maybe not 100 years, but definitely pushing it:

Japan can actually be quite welcoming to the right type of immigrants. Some of the best years of my working career were spent there.

Japan will likely need immigrants to fill labor shortages but they're not going to be stupid about it. They're not going to import swaths of Africans. They'll bring over Filipinos (they already are) as well as Malaysians and Vietnamese.

This is doubly idiotic for India: India’s fertility rate for 2024 is estimated to be 1.98. The population density is 481 per Km^2 (1,244 people per mi^2). It doesn’t really need to be higher...

The median age in India is 28.2 years.

Compare to the US’ population density of 37 per Km^ (296 people per mi^2), and a median age 10 years higher.

I knew I’d get a response like this. . Go on the internet and research pre 1948 subjects kalergi, Israel zangwill and his over 100 year old play “the melting pot” and if you want to go even further, the story behind the “give us your tired” poem at the bottom of the Statue of Liberty. Then read the Talmud…just excerpts of it. You’ll see what I mean. And if you are feeling adventurous, read about the actual writers of the Hart-Celler act and their motivational quotes regarding their inspiration for crafting the bill that destroyed America. And then look at quotes from Barbara Lerner Specter, and Barbara Roche. Next level stuff can be the niceties that people like Noel ignatiev and Susan Sontag have ascribed to the goyim, a term Saint Bibi used last night. And look for a video called “broom of Israel”. Describing motivation behind Israel’s love of immigration to western countries. Later on, I can get more quotes and videos and more history behind what seems to be an obsessive compulsion of the Jewish people to successfully ruin western countries with immigration.

I knew I should have made the difference between people and their state, and that some dumbasses wouldn’t understand wiithout explicit explanation.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
Don’t agree to use the term “xenophobic” in reference to Japan; Japan is not a xenophobic country, but you tacitly agree that it is when you decide to use the term in reference to them. You score against yourself psychologically; it’s an “own goal” you hand to the Marxist left in the war of words.

And it’s not the only one, and it’s not just you.

Conservatives have been exceedingly sloppy in this regard; the GOP in general far more so. The Left decides the terms, and the vocabulary on the right falls dutifully into line; witlessly adopting them all for regular use. Then we marvel that we suffer so many concessions to leftist talking points; as if there’s no connection whatsoever.

I’d say we’re constantly shooting ourselves in the foot, but I fear the point of impact is actually further up, at the, uh, confluence of the anatomy.

I didn’t tacitly agree to squat. You are just looking for trouble. Go away and enjoy the rest of your childhood.

I agree with your comments in this thread. Japan has every right to protect its people, culture and nation. And nothing derogatory should be assigned to that. In this regard America and Europe should be more like Japan.

I think — along with Japan — the Hungarians are forging ahead down the right road. God knows they’re doing something right; they have very few real friends in this Administration.
