4. Why Japanese Fear America forever?
In my conversation with 
I find it difficult to understand his arguments because I am currently living as a servant to overlords!

Karayuki-san (唐行きさん, literally "Ms. Gone-to-China" – the meaning later evolved during the Meiji era to mean "Ms. Gone Abroad")[1] were Japanese women who travelled to, or were trafficked, to various parts of the Asia-Pacific region during the second half of the 19th, and the first half of the 20th centuries, to work as prostitutes, courtesans, and geisha.[2] During this period, there was a network of Japanese prostitutes being trafficked across Asia, in what was then known as the ’Yellow Slave Traffic’.[3]
Many of the women who went overseas to work as karayuki-san were the daughters of poor farming or fishing families, or were burakumin. The mediators, both male and female, who arranged for the women to go overseas would search for those of appropriate age in poor farming communities and pay their parents, telling them they were going overseas on public duty. The mediators would then make money by passing the girls on to people in the prostitution industry. With the money the mediators received, some would go on to set up their own overseas brothels.[citation needed]
Japanese Prostitutes in the North American West 1887-1920
Extract
In an imaginatively conceived book, Kazuhiro Oharazeki examines prostitution to make a valuable contribution to transnational studies that deal with Japan, the United States, and Canada. He argues convincingly that “Japanese prostitution was an indispensable part of Meiji Japan’s modernization, the growth of transpacific Japanese labor migration, and the development of Japanese ethnic community and gender systems in North America” (12). He considers social reform movements, race and class, and, of course, the key components of immigration studies, “push” and “pull.” His work challenges a narrative that portrays a smooth transition from the “frontier” to “settlement” eras in North America.
Oharazeki begins by sketching how problems accompanying the Meiji Restoration of the late nineteenth century encouraged young women living in farming and fishing villages around major ports to leave their homes. These emigrants went overseas in order to contribute to their families’ economies and, if the family owned land, to retain it and thereby preserve their social status. Some families simply traded daughters for cash. In other cases, procurers returning from North America ostentatiously displaying wealth lured women with promises to transcend poverty and acquire status, respectability, and for some, an education or marriage. Few women expected to work in the sex trade despite being smuggled into North America. Their passages might include posing as the wife of the procurer, using another woman’s passport, bribing immigration officers, or entering the United States by crossing the porous border from Canada which, for a time, offered easier entry.
The Japanese overlords were convinced that the

Japan's overlords were shocked to see America's infinite wealth, territory, and resources.
European countries, including Great Britain, were no richer than Japan. However, America's prosperity and wealth overwhelmed Europe's.
So, Japan's overlords were confident that the Christian empire of the New World would conquer Japan in the future.
They decided to form an alliance with the European overlords to defeat
So,
They recognized that
However, Japan was extremely lacking in territory, resources, and population compared to the United States.
Japan did not have the materials and technology needed for a future war with the United States.
There is evidence to suggest that the first Japanese individual to land in North America was a young boy accompanying Franciscan friar, Martín Ignacio Loyola, in October 1587, on Loyola's second circumnavigation trip around the world. Japanese castaway Oguri Jukichi was among the first Japanese citizens known to have reached present day California (1815),[3] while Otokichi and two fellow castaways reached present day Washington state (1834).[4]
Japan emerged from isolation following Commodore Matthew Perry's expedition to Japan, where he successfully negotiated a treaty opening Japan to American trade. Further developments included the start of direct shipping between San Francisco and Japan in 1855 and established official diplomatic relations in 1860.[5]
Japanese immigration to the United States was mostly economically motivated. Stagnating economic conditions causing poor living conditions and high unemployment pushed Japanese people to search elsewhere for a better life. Japan's population density had increased from 1,335 per square ri in 1872 to 1,885 in 1903, intensifying economic pressure on working class populations.[6]: 26 Rumors of better standards of living in the "land of promise" encouraged a rise in immigration to the US, especially by younger sons who (due in large part to the Japanese practice of primogeniture) were motivated to independently establish themselves abroad.[7] Only fifty-five Japanese were recorded as living in the United States in 1870, but by 1890 there had been more than two thousand new arrivals.
Japan's overlords planned to send Japanese slaves to the United States to earn dollars.
They thought that the American dollar was valuable as an international currency, replacing the British pound.
It was thought that if Japanese slaves worked in the United States and earned dollars, they could use the money to buy new weapons and factory equipment in Europe.
So, many lower-class Japanese people immigrated to the United States. Japan's overlords began to import new weapons and factories from Europe and the United States with the dollars they earned and sent.
The Yahata Steel Works (八幡製鐵所, Yahata seitetsu-sho, Yawata seitetsu-sho) is a steel mill in Kitakyūshū, Fukuoka Prefecture, Japan. Imperial Steel Works was established in 1896 to meet increasing demand from the nation's burgeoning shipbuilding, railway, construction, and armaments industries.[2] The site chosen was the former town of Yahata, now merged into Kitakyūshū, near coal mines and with easy access to the sea.[2]
In particular, Japan's overlords were keen on building Western-style steel mills to produce war weapons.
So, the first Western-style steel mill in East Asia was created in Japan.
The Yahata Steel Works (八幡製鐵所, Yahata seitetsu-sho, Yawata seitetsu-sho) was the largest modern steel mill in East Asia over 130 years ago.
What does
That's why I'm still afraid of Japan's overlords today!😨
The overlords who currently rule over me are the successors of the overlords of Japan.
I hope my respected senior
I am nothing but their lowly servant!
They committed the most ugly and cowardly acts in order to earn American dollars.
They sent hundreds of thousands of Japanese women to the United States and foreign countries to become prostitutes.😨
Many Japanese women who engage in prostitution abroad were called Karayuki-san (唐行きさん).
So, many modern Japanese scholars have condemned the ugly criminal acts of Japan's overlords.
Karayuki-san (唐行きさん) was a shameful tragedy that modern Japanese would most like to forget.
The Recreation and Amusement Association (Japanese: 特殊慰安施設協会, Hepburn: Tokushu Ian Shisetsu Kyōkai, lit. 'Special Comfort Facility Association') or RAA, was the largest of the organizations established by Japanese authorities to provide organized prostitution to prevent rapes and sexual violence by Allied occupation troops on the general population,[4][5] and to create other leisure facilities for occupying Allied troops immediately following World War II. The RAA "recruited" 55,000 women and was short-lived.
The dollars earned by countless Japanese women through prostitution have greatly contributed to Japan's current economic development.
Therefore, many Asian countries, such as China, Korea, Vietnam, the Philippines, and Thailand, are imitating Japan's international prostitution organizations, distribution, and markets.

However, individuals who disclose the facts to the public will be subject to criminal punishment. They argue that the public interest is superior to individual freedom.
I wonder what
So, I envy American civilians' freedom of speech!
