The hypocrisy of anti-immigrant sentiments (opens the original)

This move comes a year into staunch conservative Sanae Takaichi’s term as the country’s Prime Minister, and of course falls in line with a broader conservative backswing of anti-immigrant and nationalist trends across the globe, most notably here in the US.While this news was not unexpected and would not in any way affect me personally, I immediately thought of the hypocrisy of all of it.
