@thejoangore: To this day, the Ainu and Ryukyuan face heavy discrimination from the Japanese people and all forms of violence and cultural erasure. The Japanese deemed their tattoos barbaric but thought their own practices weren't? What do you think about this? Did you know the Japanese aren't native to Japan? #japan #indigenous #Ainu #Okinawan
Me finding out Ryuk is a racist caricature of Japan’s indigenous ppl 😭💀

Remember kids; where you see in a rise in conservatism, think about what they are trying to conserve and why don’t they like change

Yuuup. And THAT is why they don't like the "Okinawan" accent, and say they "slur their words & are incomprehensible."
