Dude, I hear you. Here too. Japan has many many issues. Most expats here focus on the racism and I actually think the cries of JAPANESE RACISM are way way too much. White boys getting carried away with being a minority for the first time in their life, seeing racism where none exists. But there are many other issues that are ignored. Pollution is one. All the litter is another. Yes, littering in the country is a big problem, despite the PR image in all the guidebooks of streets so clean and tidy you could eat off them. There is a lot of rape that even when reported to police is ignored. Molestations on trains are super common. etc etc.
I try to adopt a balanced approach. If someone is blasting Japan unfairly, I offer defense (if there is defense to offer), and if they are heaping praise like a fanboy, I try to deflate that a little with some facts in the opposite direction.
