It isn't racism - it was provoked by Japanese worship of their war criminals, most of whom were never trialed. Also its a cry against "Japanese cultural imperialism". Its like "American cultural imperialism" except you get cartoons instead of McDonalds.

While I don't particularly support this anti-Japanese hysteria in Asia, you have to remember that Japan is 75% responsible for the actions against them; all they have to do is apologise and pay compensation to everyone they harmed, and the matter will be over. 50 million people murdered isnt something you can dismiss.

Ideological loyalty is the act of giving your soul to a vague concept, to be manipulated by people smarter than you.
