I think it is in the Immigrant Handbook that you must despise all other foreign residents. You’re the good one. Whatever you like and do is correct, and what other people like and do is wrong. Only you understand Japan, not all the other 外国人

I guess I’m not reacting much to people who are using the subreddits to vent, but more in the comments of any post, there seem to be a lot of people who give BAD advice based on their perception of the “right” way to do things in Japan. people who are very protective of what they consider to be Japanese culture. That is mostly what I’m in shock about.
