The amount of xenophobia in those countries, they would def have a population collapse. But hey happy earth!

Japan is totally fine with foreigners ... if you're western. Otherwise you can GTFO.

Even white guys would never be able to assimilate with them. You are never Japanese even if you are half, even when you born in Japan move to overseas and come back to Japan — you are treated as an outsider.

Nah they accept foreigners as long as they speak the language. If anything halfies are often treated better due to their good looks.
