Why though?

Why "inbred"?

I guess he thinks cause the Japanese live on an island, then they must all be inbred. There nothing to figure out why he says those things. He has a beef with the Japanese.

Oh? Hmmm.

I suppose the theory makes as much sense as the flat earth movement. So why not?

I'm only guessing. There could be other reasons why he said that.

I doubt he cares very much about hating everyone around him.

You're right. I just said what I said and it was wrong, or it was taken wrong, and now it's all this. First off I like to say that I don't believe in providing motives or reasons why people do or say things without careful consideration and due cause. I really don't know what Zhanteimi thinks or why he says anything he says.

I was not theorizing that populations that live on islands are more likely to be "inbred." I just use "island" as a way to flip it on him, since he is Irish and Ireland is an island like Japan. Like they say "Ireland is the Nippon of Europe." If he agreed on the island theory - not that it is a valid theory - then he would have to evaluate his own possibility that he might be "inbred" as well.

I guess there could be a reason why he calls them that. Not that I justify calling people "inbred." Just that he might have a reason himself why he feels the need to say things like that. As far and I understand his situation he doesn't care much for Japanese, but this stems from the fact they give him a difficult time, for whatever their reason maybe be. I shouldn't make it seem he is like Larry David walking about in Japan and having all this issues with the Japanese.
