The argument is again: people don't give a shit about any other apartheid countries. It's only antisemites who use the word.

with the same earnest as Japan's human rights violations during WWII and their current discriminatory policies

It's funny because the other day you tried showing me a map that started in 1945(6 years after WW2 started) portraying some completely bs ethnic cleansing commencing before the Palestinians got 8 countries to invade and attempt to destroy Israel.

Then

You proceeded to list to me discriminatory practices Israel allegedly did against those people up until today.

Alright dude.

My argument is nobody cares about apartheid or even potential apartheid countries Japan is not the only one. They act like there is no problem it's all normal. You don't see a single person here going hey yeah Japan should chill out everyone is just going "no it's not".

What are you talking about "in general, no."

It is how it works since the year 2000. If you are born there yes, you can get citizenship, given your parent live there for 8 years.

There are generations of zainichi who have not got citizenship.

I've shown they have different sets of laws that apply to them. They are prohibited from working various jobs.

People born in Germany are given citizenship. Zainichi Koreans are not in Japan. There is no accelerated procedure for zainichi Koreans who went to school. In fact japanese law even makes it harder for Korean schoolchildren.

One of the continuing contentious issues for Koreans in Japan is education. The Japanese government in 2003 made graduates from most international schools and foreign schools – as well as Japanese schools – eligible for the university entrance examination. This has not been extended to most Korean schools (with the exception of a small number of Mindan-run schools), meaning that Korean students from these schools remain seriously disadvantaged. There also exists other forms of continuing discrimination against Korean schools, with donations to foreign schools being tax-exempt, but not those to Korean schools. Since most Korean schools are thus still not recognized as regular schools, children attending these schools will also risk discrimination in employment. The government of Japan also excludes Korean schools from the high school tuition-waiver programme, which was introduced by the government in April 2010, although the programme covered foreign schools authorized as miscellaneous schools. Many local governments have cancelled financial support for Korean schools as well.

Naturalization remains the primary means of acquiring full citizenship rights, but the process is complex and discourages many. Nowadays, most Zainichi Koreans are descendants of the forced labourers in the 1920s, so they were born and raised in Japan and speak only Japanese, but they are not eligible for citizenship unless one of their parents is Japanese. Furthermore, as it is against the law in Japan to have two nationalities,

Go on how they do and can become citizens. I don't know how many braincells I've lost talking to you. It's easier for a Palestinian to get citizenship in Israel than it is for a zainichi Korean. They can't even be Korean anymore to get citizenship. Dude what the fuck are you talking about here.

It's also not current.

Here the conclusion of your own source.

Regardless, discrimination still affects their daily lives both visibly and invisibly.

Definition of apartheid:

system of legalized racial segregation that deprives one racial group of political and civil rights.

I've provided sources that prove it. Political rights deprived as well as civil. Laws enabling it.

That's nice. Lol.

People are actively saying there's no apartheid in Japan. What are you talking about. They claim to care so much about apartheid states but look in this thread.

Ah yes somebody committed a war crime (checks math) 79 years ago. So we can't criticize Israel.

This whole Palestine thing also started in 1948 nearly 79 years ago. Thanks for proving the point that none cares about apartheids.

Do you not see the comments I'm replying to. People don't even care or accept it's an apartheid. Like what are you talking about? Read the comments I'm replying to for some context.

You don't know where your tax dollars go. We give money to them. They give money to us. Business as usual.

... trivialising the shit out of

From 1937–1945, the Japanese military regime may have killed nearly 6 million people, including around half a million Koreans. This estimate includes Koreans who were conscripted into the Japanese army, where over 22,000 were killed.

I'm with the demons and henchman.

Both can be apartheids. I haven't compared much. Let's compare.

I don't even think Israel has killed nearly the amount of people as Japan has Koreans. Like what Israel has done would be a fraction compared. Even after and during Israel being invaded in 1948.

How do you say with a straight face Japan is not up there with Israel. Must be deluded with goyim hatred am I right?

And many many Zainichi did and do.

Where's the source. I've got one that says the opposite.

Current Discriminatory Practices

Nonetheless, despite significant progress, discriminatory practices persist in Japanese society. Naturalization remains the primary means of acquiring full citizenship rights, but the process is complex and discourages many. Nowadays, most Zainichi Koreans are descendants of the forced labourers in the 1920s, so they were born and raised in Japan and speak only Japanese, but they are not eligible for citizenship unless one of their parents is Japanese. Furthermore, as it is against the law in Japan to have two nationalities, for Zainichi Koreans to naturalize would require them to renounce their Korean identity entirely. As Chung put it, “Japanese nationality is closely associated with ethnocultural identity, naturalization applicants must not only renounce their allegiance to their country of origin but must also demonstrate evidence of cultural assimilation”. Moreover, if their ethnic roots were revealed, they would still be seen as outsiders in Japanese society, therefore naturalizing would not even address the underlying causes of prejudice.

Even though there is no fee to pay for naturalization, applicants frequently have to pay hefty attorney costs to prepare the numerous documents needed to authenticate their family histories.

Estonia

Apartheid too? I will say this, doubt you'll see anyone who gives a single fuck.

There are many apartheid countries. No one cares. No one has ever cared. They only care about evil goyim.

Abe never put into practice, and crimes against humanity committed by Imperial Japan during WWII.

They actively oppress the Korean population and praise apartheid system in recent times. Just because you don't care doesn't make it not real. Here's another source if you care. There is a section that says recent atrocities or something along those lines if you care to skim through the page.

Really. No one cares about apartheid BS other than bigoted antisemites anyway.

There are like 5 pan arab apartheid countries. I'll leave that for some other post. Let's stay on topic of no cares about Japan being an apartheid state.

Coming to terms with it's past? They actively oppress their largest minority population. On top of all the shit in Source 2? Alright dude lol just downvote and move along.

They call them Zainichi Koreans in Japan. Dirty Koreans who can't get citizenship but slave away for the countries benefit. Something like that anyways.

Apartheid is mostly a word used by antisemitics anyway in my opinion.

As in people don't care about any other apartheid states(there are many) they only care about Israel which is weird.

Shows here they have Hamas terrorists working for them, someone who allegedly participated in the October 7th attack

Japan is an apartheid themselves lmfao.

Weak.

Israel is no more of an ethnistate than many many countries.
