    Controversial among weebs and white racists maybe. I can’t find any prominent Japanese publication or talking head decrying the decision.

    The article tries to weasel its way out by saying “inside and outside of Japan” but it seems to be mostly people writing in English on Instagram who are riled up about it.

      Pretending Japan isn’t still incredibly xenophobic is quite the hill to die on.
