Yamato Damacy Episode 23: Arudou Debito Interview 4

[JessyJames44]

If you ever meet Debito, you will realize what a professional and quality character he is. He has done more for international residents and Japanese than any other International. What have you done? What do you know that you share?

[methenium]

To be a man you must have honour, honour and a peenis!

[idancejazz]

Tiny minority.

haha,minority?

[KodomoDocomo20]

Arudoって有道のこと？

だとしたら、この人って事実をねつ造してメシ食ってる人だよね。

俺は北海道在住だからよくわかるけど、「外人お断り」の立て看板­の件は、有道による完璧な事実のねつ造だ。小樽の湯屋の件は、ロ­シア人による人種差別攻撃から身を守るために取られた苦肉の策だ­から。

[KodomoDocomo20]

インタビューする側も、奇怪な発言をする男だからといって、簡単­にその人物を祭り上げるのはよくないことだと思うよ。とくに有道­のように事実関係や日本の社会背景をよく観察していない人間を取­り扱う場合、そういう有道の裏の顔が見えるように編集しないと問­題提起する意味がない。

[KodomoDocomo20]

捕鯨論争でテロリスト側にしかインタビューしないのと一緒で、偏­向された情報は入ってくるけど本質は何も見えてこない。

[demonkogure]

My Grandfather is a Korean. He came to Japan for own will. The reason is because there was the case that the Koreans slaughter the Koreans in large quantities.

[MelissasFather]

Debito is a guy who puts it diplomatically. If wanted to tell it like it really is in plain terms, he would be kicked out of Japan. It is one of the last MOST RACIST nations in the world. His impact is very small and localized, the world needs about 200 more Debito's in Japan in order to help bring Japan into the 21st century. The internet is revealing it all for the world to see. Our "friend" and "ally" Japan, is not what it appears to be. Keep up the good work!

[Epblueyes]

Japan has operated a diplomacy of shutting out foreign culture to maintain their own. I'm sure much of that has transformed into a lot of racism.

[johnnytanini]

Exactly. Take the treatment of ethnic Koreans as an example. The next PM in Japan is likely to be Taro Aso (Arsehole) whose family firm used forced Korean and Chinese labour throughout the war. Not once has Arsehole or his family apologised or attoned for the crimes they committed.

[cominternprc]

Ah man, I love Debito. His webpage is great and I admire him quite a bit for naturalizing in his adopted country. It took alot of guts, no doubt. It's a shame what happened between him and his wife and kids, though.

I love YD, too. So glad I discovered it.

[damnarse]

Watched all of your episodes and enjoyed them immensely, especially the people you interact with.

I'm glad you did this interview because it sheds light on the "gritty" side of Japan.

[yamadayamada3]

I have often heard those kinnda issues from foregners live in japan. Actually, the crime rate of foreigner is worse and worse each year though, basically I hope that the conditions of foregner will be improved as one of Japanese. Good videoでした。

[johnnytanini]

The foreign crime rate is not increasing. Japanese commit 98% of crime in Japan.

[Se1sai]

keep up the good work jeshii and rahman =D

[ChloroPhil]

very interesting

[Sononeo]

These interviews actually allowed me to learn a lot about the country and basically how the system works there. Personally I really like the country and want to visit it, but at the same time I don't want to be discriminated because of being a foreigner or because of my colour, so I find these quite important and helpful.

[teadaze]

Nice vid. Although his laugh sounds like he's a dolphin instead of a seal hehe.

[JazzMatic]

Such a bunch of fucking nerds! These guys treat Aldwin like he's hot shit, but at the end of the day he's just a professor at a no-name university who decided to kick up a fuss about human rights!

[jeshii]

Well, he does send out reports on this stuff and has a mailing list and really keeps up with it. So, I wouldn't just say he is a professor who just happened to kick up a fuss. He cares about it. Too bad all you seem to care about is silencing people.

[Se1sai]

O RLY?

[yoshi99]

Isn't clear, Japan doesn't realy want foreigners to come to Japan and live there.

[dappomb6523]

Yeah, but it's not our fault. Complain foreign criminals in Nippon. We just want to keep our country peaceful.

[johnnytanini]

Japanese commit 98% of the crimes in Japan. Don't forget that dumb J-trash.

[dappomb6523]

[2004 summary]convicts/total population

Japanese: 68,050/126,000,000(0.05%)

Foreigners: 5,671/ 1,310,545(0.43%)

Foreign convicts/total convicts：7.73％

[johnnytanini]

Use of statistics to make something look much worse than it is. How many of these convictions are visa related? Crimes that Japs cannot commit.

98% of crimes in Japan are committed by Japanese. J-Trash are the problem, not non-J's

[shiokan02]

Look at the crime rates between Japanese and GAIJIN. Obviously foreigners suck. Your comment is so annoying. There is an Australian exchange student @ my school. I've decided to bully him from now on. You are from New Zealand but seriously, I can't tell Australia and New Zealand. So, you and Australians are the same.

[shiokan02]

@dappomb6523

Agreed with you.

Basically foreigners are rude, uneducated and barbaric compared to Japanese.

That's why I look down on GAIJINs.

[johnnytanini]

Nice trolling. お前はジャップのか？一センチちんちんジャップ？お前は糞J-T­rash.　死ね！

[Killer193]

@Shiokan02

To generalize all foreigners as uneducated and barbaric is a pretty sad and pathetic way to think. To say so makes you look very uneducated yourself and you saying you're actually going to pick on a kid at your school for being Australian makes you a barbaric and cruel person.

Just because someone is different doesn't make them bad or not intelligent. We are all human beings and not one person in this world is perfect.

[yoshi99]

these interviews are soo boring who cares about this author if thats what he is.

[jeshii]

Then don't watch it. :P

[yoshi99]

I love everything else you do, but these interviews.. Zzz

[boombye]

this is actually very important information. especially for those living or planning on moving to japan.

[Minipyon]

I've been waiting for this. o.O
