If I recall world news was very toxic and racist on reddit

I recall when stuff about Japan came up on world news it was always misinformed and racist views on how Japan is bad and when people tried to refute they where attacked

It does come from countries that do have an anti-Japan setiment and then spreads to common internet users

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anti-Japanese_sentiment

And users online resorted to mentioning the "Tiananmen Square Massacre" to stop the trolls from china
