The entire video is dope however. Their view on security guards, Christianity, and simps

Christianity

"tales of voices from heaven & the resurrection of a crucified criminal"

I really enjoyed that. The author was clearly a very perceptive and intelligent man

Extremely intelligent. And you can tell that he didn't had the belief that the Western world's values were superior to his own culture. That was a common belief in Japan at that time after they were forced to open up and interact with the West.

a lot of people had original opinions and views before media propaganda

Media propaganda always existed, it just turned up a notch with the advent of radio, television, and the Internet. This was before all of this which meant you had to grow up in a certain culture to have a negative thought on a group of people. Nobody in Tajikistan were watching Worldstar videos showing Black people acting like buffoons in 1872.

"Media propaganda always existed" NO not on the same level. word of speech and paper could only reach so far plus language barriers... visuals are far more impactful and imprinted. it's no coincidence the first feature length film was the KKK coming out party "birth of a nation"

I have a tendency of repeating what others had already said lol

Meanwhile they commit suicide if they failed to impress their boss.

This is the last country that needs to be so culturally critical

This is such a @JadeB thread to do

This sounds interesting though, I'll check it out

He starts talking about race around the 8:00minute mark.

it’s actually sad this foreigner came to the US around that time and didn’t feel the slightest bit of discomfort. Wasn’t worried about his life. Yet, blacks at that time were being hunted.

Dope video, it's amazing how relevant this still is.
