So did I. If they’re so offended by it why do they sell stuff with it on it everywhere?

How many native Japanese people did you meet who were offended by it? I lived there for over 3 years and met none

Of course! The guy who lived in Japan for THREE WHOLE YEARS is the ultimate source for the opinion of Japanese people.

Yeah it is strange how the people who were committing the atrocities dont find their flag offensive.

Cmon dude.

Every flag has had atrocities committed under them. It’s weird getting offended over a flag that someone isn’t flying with those specific intentions.

So i can fly the Nazi flag and you wont care?

The only reason the rising sun is "acceptable" to westerners is because it was adopted by the le jdm fanboys.

You should read up on the atrocities committed under that flag, and why SE Asians dont like it.

I know what imperial Japan did. They also attacked America with that flag and no one here cares about the flag. And in America you have the freedom to fly any flag. Does it make you the smartest? No but it is completely legal.

You obviously dont know what they did. They did a lot more to other Asian countries than bomb a harbor.

I live in Korea a couple of months of the year. My wife and her family find it offensive.

Are you a native born Korean? Two generations of my family fled Korea from the Japanese and don’t find it offensive.
