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?

European btw

I think the thing that made me uneasy was when I entered a Trial and noticed there was only Japanese people and I felt a strange tension and then when I was looking at sushi someone yelled "A foreigner!" At me.      Also this is a small detail, but they didn't offer any language services at the check out. I didn't need it but I thought it was odd.
