      Buying a cheaply made item: “oh no, I can’t believe this cheaply manufactured item isn’t anywhere as good as a luxury product!”

      Good. Cheap. Made quickly. You can only choose two out of these three.

      “the japanese are respectable people”

      historically had forever wars just like europeans. sided with nazis. bayonetted babies. SA’d women. held “comfort women” (sex slaves). released radioactive water into the ocean recently. still holds reactionary views to this day, notably the worshipping of white people and being xenophobic/racist to everyone else, especially against dark-skinned people and even to other east asians (esp. chinese and korean people). not even half-japanese people aren’t considered “japanese”. extremely closed-minded (“the nail that sticks out will be hammered down”). creates fictional cp. has a hikkikomori problem. forcing ryukyuans and ainu people to assimilate into japanese culture.

      yeah, respectable people alright. then again you have a pretty fash-sounding name, so no wonder you’d find them the “respectable” type.

        even to other east asians (esp. chinese and korean people)

        Even to this day, they still secretly call them dogs or subhumans.

        But assuming the OP is from the same demographic as most redditors, then they share enough of those characteristics to consider each other “respectable”.

          let’s see…
