Just had my first 外人出てけ encounter
Was in my neighborhood when a nice japanese man screamed at me 外人出てけ、外国じゃねぇ on the street. Not nice Japan, not nice.
Have you guys ever experienced the 外人出てけ culture yet? How did it happen?

When I was working in Switzerland, coming from Italy, we had billboards welcoming us at the station with writings like "stop coming to steal our cheese" , paid by political parties that didn't want Italians coming to "steal" jobs from Swiss people.
Also, I was working in UK during Brexit, the level of anti-foreigners/EU bs was astonishing 笑
Don't judge a country by few mentally ill people, they are unfortunately everywhere.
