Of course, it is a US satrap state man! Everybody knows it, so it is not new and not in the news.

When you say "USA" you actually mean globalist's controlled USA government that has been (along with NATO) used as a tool of global terror. Do not make mistake of thinking that Americans (people) are doing any better than Japanese or German, probably worse because they operate under illusion of living in a great country. The illusion is going to hit a wall very soon. The further you are from the epicenter the better you'll fare.

US destroyed the Nord Stream pipelines and will get away with it. No one, not even the direct victim - Germans, makes a fuss about it.

It shows their famous strategy "Keep the Russians out, the Americans in, and the Germans down" still active.

(I don't think they could keep Russians out, though)

As for Japan, as a vassal state, it's been thoroughly following its boss's (Washington's) instructions - "Russia Russia", fake pandemic, climate hoax, "no NAZI in Ukraine" narrative and "Putin is insane" narrative, etc. (not to mention China and Kim narratives)

All that developed into following :

While excess mortality skyrocketing, Tokyo got partnered with Pfizer. Moderna plans to build its facility in Fukushima.

Militarization and NATO is planning to build an office in Tokyo.

So, your article, refers to what's happening in academia, didn't surprise me in the slightest.

By the way, I always think learning Japanese is just a waste of time. It's a primitive and inferior language. And it's useless unless you live in Japan.

Japan somehow has succeeded in making people in the world think Japan is a good guy. (Picking trash after succer matches works well after all?) It somewhat annoys me.

Tokyo University is a state school and considered the best university in Japan. It is easy prey for US privatized schools such as Harvard, Yale and Stanford that have billions of dollars in stock market shares and donations and global holdings. Tokyo University pays state employee salaries. Cannot compete with US millionaire celebrity scholars.

I literally was thinking about having to do an internship at a US affiliated organization to further advance in my career.

I am a recent MA graduate from a non-American or American-related school with a marginalized citizenship on top of it (at least I have my English to earn some respect for my personality. These days I spend more time than I should looking at (dominant) Western, leftist, Russian narratives about what’s happening in Ukraine. And what amazes me is how everybody, who, as by the way, brings one or two some very, very bad consequences followed by the US sanctions across the world that were barely mentioned in the news or executed during times when the internet was not a public good that are pretty equal to what the dominant discourse today calls “war crimes”, immediately gets demonized in the English-speaking, EU/US funded environment.

The sanctions that the US threatens the world with is something you feel desperate about, once you learn about the Korean War and the following sanctions on North Korea, The Cuban Revolution followed by the sanctions, Venezuela… all other countries that suffered/ suffer because they have been sanctioned or embargoed by the US – the judge – since they don’t fit within what should be a right development or even a right existence of one state.

At the same time, I also acknowledge that my personality is self-colonized being influenced by Western hegemony for years and even now… to integrate myself into the “civilized” world. I have to or choose to stigmatize some aspects of my “other” non-western, non-English-speaking world. I still find it enjoyable in a way, isn’t it sad?

An old friend from a EU country I met overseas a few years ago in a recent chat asked me why I am not looking for PhD programs at home, why *countries I listed*. There was an obvious answer for me, a citizen from a developing country... In fairness, we have some decent Western-funded schools, but the thing is they still prefer to hire someone white, or at least with a degree earned in the West. So, what is tf point? I replied in a more polite manner.
