Isn’t it ok for the Japanese to be Japanese first?

No. It impinges on the right of Western collective of ideamakers to tell them what to do and how to run their country.

The article is from French media sources for example. France, as a part of that collective, is exerting their collectively given self right to tell the world how wrong Japan is for practicing democracy and getting the "wrong" results.

Yeah it is interesting though from a sociological perspective that there seems to be a worldwide pullback from globalism. Did Brexit or Trump kick this off?
chrisg23•35m ago
It's my sense that globalism kicked off this trend of anti-globalism.

If it benefitted more people, or more accurately if it benefitted people in a more equitable way instead of concentrating the gains in the hand of the wealthy and powerful, globally, then maybe there would be less of a pullback.

I'm not arguing for or against globalism, it has many benefits and drawbacks, but the undercurrent of opposition has existed long before Trump of Brexit, as seen for example in the various GX (G8, G20, etc) protests that took place around the world in the 2000's and 2010's, preceding the Trumpers and Brexit.

I agree the sentiment has picked up in recent years, accelerated since Covid, and that politicians are doing what politicians do, trying to get elected.

It’s that grifter want to be fascist dictators types have exploited the hate people have for others to get elected or gain votes ?

On second thought, you seem like a rage bot with GPT generated comments on politically charged articles.

I doubt you read the article but here:

In one of Sanseito’s proposed policies, she said, the party would explicitly prohibit foreigners from having voting or civic rights, and it would not allow naturalised citizens to be able to hold public office until they had been naturalised for three generations.

To your questions: No, because there are lot of wonderful people who are non ethnically Japanese who live in Japan, contribute like everyone else who are accused of being parasites for no reason but political gain only. It’s Trumpism.

Nationality in Japan is about ethnicity.

Hopefully that answers your question.

Globalism destroys national identity, a convenient source of self esteem. If anything, globalism favors the corporate mentality of dehumanizing people as it seeks to maximize profit by exporting services to the least expensive provider. This precept of Ricardo that has been extolled by billionaires like Buffett has been twisted into 'let the people who can provide the most output for the least input' prevail. Using this mentality, we will soon return to child labor and slavery. The significant intangible of nationalism is that it puts a floor under this race to the bottom and provides a foundation deeply rooted in our evolution for humans to coexist within a homogeneous pool - a shared culture - a set of behaviors that have a low cognitive burden, are easily maintained and transmitted.

Under globalization, we have confusing alternatives that require constant cognitive function to evaluate and maintain. As we seek conformity and agreement, we tend to a homogeneous gruel and the rich diversity of the world becomes an average gray standard.
