I wasn’t in Japan for long – only five days – but it was enough to appreciate the essence of the place. The country, as I had expected to discover, is a marvel; remarkable, thrilling, inspiring and blessed with so many natural advantages that it leaves one feeling furiously envious. The people I met were beautiful and ultra-civilised – if also slightly robotic. The climate was milder than I expected (having previously visited unbearably humid South Korea). The natural environment (and especially the trees) I found dazzlingly attractive. And though I am not a ‘weeaboo’ by any stretch of the imagination, I did come away with a newfound appreciation for manga and J-Pop (especially the bizarre girl-group AKB48 – seriously look them up).

I have, of course, always understood the Western fetish for East Asia and for Japan in particular. The appeal of homogenous, orderly and affluent societies to those stranded in multiculturalised urban jungles is perfectly obvious. Japan is a dream of faultlessness; a magical perfectionland, where the girls are thin and pretty, the IQs are through the roof and crime and disorder are almost entirely absent. Who could fail to be attracted to that?

It is revealing that many of the leading luminaries of the Western far-right have had personal experience of Japan. The current leader of the white nationalist British National Party (BNP) Adam Walker, for example, spent many years  there teaching English to children. Jared Taylor, leader of the neo-segregationist website American Renaissance, also spent many years living in the country and speaks the language fluently. This makes a lot of sense to me.

A Western citizen exposed to Japan for a considerable period of time will inevitably come to resent the fact that his or her own country has gone down such a different, self-destructive path. Why can’t England be like Japan? Why can’t London be like Tokyo? Exposure to Japan can by itself turn a liberal into a reactionary.

Of course, there is no new shift in policy available to us that can make England into Japan or London into Tokyo, and any effort to bring such changes about will be a failure (and a bloody one at that). This is because Japan has dodged the bullet of decline for reasons that are inherently Japanese.

First, Japan has always been insular. Indeed, prior to the Meiji restoration, Japan maintained the strictest policy of cultural isolation in human history, even at times forbidding its citizenry the right to leave the archipelago on pain of death. Second, Japanese people are, on average, smarter than Europeans by two to three IQ points. This is not an insignificant difference and it has real-world consequences. Finally, Japanese men have lower levels of testosterone than Europeans, meaning that libertinism, crimes of aggression (and increasingly even reproduction) are much rarer there than in other parts of the world.

Given that Europeans cannot become Japanese simply by changing national policy, those who (like Jared Taylor and Adam Walker) dream of importing Japanese advantages into the West are sadly deluded. The best we can do is envy them quietly and try not to get too depressed.

Why are Whites Defecting to Asia?

Although agreeing on very little in general, liberal white youths and (typically older) white conservatives do share one thing in kind; a jealous fascination with Japan and the tiger-states of East Asia – South Korea, Singapore and Taiwan.

These fascinations usually originate from a single sentiment – namely the idea that East Asians represent what whites should be, but aren’t.

On the one hand, right-wing or conservative people praise Japan and the Tigers’ dedication to hard work and personal discipline, drawing attention to the lack of crime, disorder and graffiti in Asian cities, as well as to the lack of feminism, multiculturalism and sexualisation in Asian societies as a whole.

Liberal youths meanwhile (especially those belonging to the middle class) view Asian countries as cutely ornate, riddled with adorable customs and infused by a well-negotiated social peace.

Despite their shared basis, the two views later divide away from each other and the differences are highly important. While Conservative admiration for Asia is political and rational, privileged white youths have developed what can only described as a fetish for Asian culture, with the celebration of K-POP, Manga, Anime and even Sushi being rooted not in enjoyment, but a restless desperation for cultural defection.

Rich white youths are turning away from traditional white identity because of a perceived ‘super-whiteness’ in Asia. To put it simply – All of the things that we commonly associate with white identity in the West, such as intelligence, orderliness, geekiness, prudishness etc…  are all done better by Asians.

Asians are also more qualitatively homogenous than whites and this too may be attractive. As lower categories of whites become (via dysgenic processes) more violent, illiterate and embarrassing for rich white youths, the latter will naturally grow more dissatisfied with their ethno-cultural designation. A rich white youth does not want to be associated with the trash one sees on the Jeremy Kyle Show or the Black wannabes of the inner cities. He/she would much rather be a cute Korean or Japanese.

The desire is often strong enough to provoke strange behaviours.

In the past few weeks, it was reported that a White Brazilian man had made the ultimate defection to Asia, having over 100 plastic surgery operations to make him look biologically Korean. A few months before this, it was reported that a White English girl had an operation on her tongue to make it possible to sound more authentically Korean. Asianising plastic surgery operations are growing increasingly common in America and continental Europe too.

Even without surgery, rich Whites are actively adopting the mannerisms and dressing style of Asians. Consider the following immensely creepy video featuring the Italian girlfriend of YouTube megastar PewDiePie.

Testifying to its prevalence, there is now an internet slang-word for a White imitator of Japanese-style culture – Weeaboo. Famous people afflicted this way include Avril Lavigne, Gwen Stefani, Dakota Rose, as well as countless ordinary privileged Whites not yet aware of the nature of their behaviour.

As well as class embarrassment and racial envy, a key contributing factor to the Weeaboo (which I will use to subsume the White imitators of any Asian culture) is White aging and the fear of growing old. The idyll of Japanese Manga and Korean Pop is that of eternal childhood. It elevates and crystallises the pre-sexual and the playful, the naïve and the apolitical. Judged from the aggressive jungle of the modern multicultural West, there must be something quite soothing and pure about a bug-eyed animated schoolgirl, or a smooth-skinned, androgynous boy-hero. This doesn’t rescue the trait from its consequences. Demographic collapse has already been visited on Japan and Korea, with many young people struggling to maintain the divide between the virtual and the real.

Is this bad for Whites? That depends. It is certainly bad for Nationalism. You can’t maintain a functioning first-world country without the native middle and upper classes. If they are all done with their ‘Whiteness’ then that would prove quite a stumbling block.

For non-Nationalist Europeans, the Weeaboo at present is little more than an irritation. It won’t neccesarily remain as such. What the phenomenon glorifies – androgyny, indoorsiness, immaturity- is at this point in history, the very opposite of helpful.
