Do you think we might be over scrutinising his words just a little bit

Maybe, but I feel like ecosse is a good guy who just doesn't get a few things so I still want to help.

Kind of feels like people are talking past each other here.
It's ok, we are all basically good people, or at least trying to be!

I had a few clubs in Tokyo say Japanese only. Mostly around Shibuya, but I don't blame them for not wanting drunk tourists. And apparently sumo is, but I have no idea. The panty vending machine was a real shock, exploring Matsushima Bay in Hanami, admiring the beautiful sea views and cherry blossoms. Then in the middle of this wonderful national park... imgur.com/gallery/pmm49dnI see you bought a pair and then picked a fight on here so noone else would notice That is actually my brothers Facebook feed. We were backpacking together. Not sure what fight I picked though.

It's the "it wouldn't surprise me but I have no idea". Jambo does have an idea and he's told you, so saying you have no idea seems like you're dismissing what he says. You probably didn't mean that but that's how it comes across. Here's how it actually went. Ecosse:I never saw Japanese only in 4 trips either, was treated amazingly everywhere, not so say there isn't xenophobia but think a lot of the anti-foreigner sentiment that exists is against the Chinese and when you see how Chinese tourist groups behave, it's no wonder. The xenophobia has been stoked during Covid by wanker politicians though, Abe's party can get in the bin. Jambo:Well if you're a pasty white foreigner I could see how you would be treated amazingly. Not saying to check your privilege, but well... Ecosse:Can only talk of my experience, Jambo and a pasty white foreigner is still a very obvious foreigner. It’s not like a white person in a white majority country saying “well I never get racism”, is it? Jambo:But you must understand the clear difference between how a white foreigner would be treated compared to a brown foreigner in an Asian country such as Japan/Korea? Ecosse:I’d be making an assumption based on zero knowledge or experience , it wouldn’t surprise me if there would be worse treatment but I have no idea how much it differs. Jambo told me that I must understand something I don't have any knowledge of. I've never been to Korea, don't know any brown people in Japan, I "must understand" a clear difference that isn't explained by anyone? I'm somehow casting doubt on some utterly vague "clear difference"? What happened to Jambo in Japan, has be been to Japan, how the fuck do I know? Are Japan and Korea the same in their treatment of brown people as Jambo suggest? I have no idea. Nowadays, it's rightly frowned upon for white people to talk about racism they have no experience of, men to talk of sexism they have no experience of. I made it very clear that I should not try and talk about something that I have no idea about, especially a sensitive and important topic like xenophobia. I still don't get how I could be casting doubt on something as vague as "a clear difference" when I haven't the first clue what that even means. I'll also point out that I basically just said that my experience was like nazo's, for some reason, he didn't receive a pile of shit from Jambo about it.

You have a conflict driven personality ecosse, we all know someone like you in real life. You are unable to let shit slide and move on, every argument has to be won.
Even if you look at it purely statistically, you do seem to run into an amazing amount of online conflicts.

It's ok to just... let something go. You don't need to win this discussion, and the more you try the worse it gets.

Let's imagine there was a fight between FG users, like a big punch up, who do we think does well and who does shit?
No nominating yourself for hardest.

I'd be a bit shit in a fight but can take a beating surprisingly well. So I reckon I'd out pretty early, likely first, and then get a round in at the bar for the rest of the early losers as I could still walk over to it.

I'll admit to having had a wry smile at this BBC News headline:
Well, yeah. No shit.

Oh, and count me out of the Font Geek Royal Rumble - not my forte, I'm afraid!
I'd say that I'm a lover, not a fighter; however, I have it on good authority that I'm not much of either.

Despite being a pacifist lover not a fighter, as a newly shaved skinhead I have to say bring it on you cunts.

It’s even worse in this thread as it’s tantamount to going “I don’t know but here’s my take anyway”
Anyway, this is the official mod line to move on from this absolute bullshit.
