America should be America First, and Japan should be Japan First.

@hoshizorarock "Cheese violence" was the name of my college band.😐

私はアメリカでまた新しいチーズの暴力を発見しました。
アメリカ人は常にチーズから暴力を受け続けてます。
それでもアメリカ人は消して倒れません。
彼らはすごいタフなのです。

@Baketu_head Brother-in Arms! Did you fight in the ACW or IMCF, or BOTN for Japan? I am retired from the sport now, but fought for US in 2014 (Spain) & 2016 (Portugal).

I wanted to thank my American bros. Do you remember this meme? I'm the person in this picture, and I was happy to see it go viral everywhere. Thanks! The M1911 is awesome!

自動翻訳で言語の壁が無くなった今、我々日本語話者は他国の文化に敬意をもって接するべきだ。
たとえばイギリス料理。
今まではイギリス料理はあまりおいしくないというジョークを楽しんでいたが、これからはやめたほうがよい。
実際、イギリスの料理はおいしい。
ロンドンで食べたカレーも炒麺もケバブも最高だった。

@nanshisweets OH YES. Pumpkin Pie is, by itself, a sufficient reason to have Thanksgiving, no turkey, stuffing, or cranberry sauce required.

日本語の投稿がアメリカの人に翻訳なしで届くようになったって本当ですか！？みなさん、サンクスギビングデーに本当にパンプキンパイを食べているのか、日本語で質問できるってことですか！？

@nikutaberuru A pickup truck that would not fit on any Japanese streets.

@AgingAnarchist The correct recompense for a friend helping you move is ALWAYS providing pizza and beer during the move... and sharing together on a break. Anything else is a breach of moving etiquette. (Note: I have moved more than 50 times in my life).

@yamadamaru There is nothing that will drive a Man to greater heights than the admiration of another Worthy. Yes - it helps. LFG!

@ikumen_arasaa_ The only good commie is the one on his way to the ground from the helicopter he was just thrown out of.

うわー！自動翻訳でアメリカ人のポストがバッチリ日本語になってタイムラインに流れてきてる！！
これマジでヤバいな！
日本の投稿もアメリカでどんどん読まれてるみたいで、世界が一気に小さくなった感じがする！
ところで、アメリカのみんなは共産党とか共産主義についてはどう思ってるんだろ？

@S_Tech_Art @Graham__san I was a defense counsel in Oki 99-00 and had many trips going up to Iwakuni from Naha via (either) Fukuoka-Shin-Iwakuni or Hiroshima-Train-Iwakuni (bcuz they only had one DC there & Marines tend to commit crimes by the fire team). Beautiful place, especially in April-May. S/F

これ、日本語も英語に翻訳されるのかな？
もしそうなら、あの時の感謝を述べたい。
3.11のとき、駆け付けてくれた全てのアメリカ人に感謝を。
オペレーション・トモダチを、日本人は決して忘れることはないです。
ありがとう。

@BBFluteMagic @tanomuzeA My check of the translation seems correct. Perhaps I should have said zen buddhism? The works of Prof. Suzuki (Daisetz) in translating Japanese buddhist writings to English were critical in bringing understanding to 🇺🇸

@Graham__san I am filled with happiness my chest feels like it will burst. I thank you. Go, make Japan even stronger, let the Samurai Spirit rise. Let all the world know America and Japan stand back to back.

@LatticeWeaver @tanomuzeA Their joinery work is incomparable, imo.

@the_abject @tanomuzeA duuuude - great lowkey shoutout, Japanese carpentry is straight up art

You stop that - Japan is not a "defeated nation." The Japanese saved the rest of humanity from extinction by taking those two on the chin early, when nukes had lower yields. If no one had seen what nukes could do until later (with much higher yields), USSR & USA would assuredly have obliterated us all. Wars are won & wars are lost, but no person or people is defeated until they are gone. Japan has risen like the Phoenix, reborn into something even more beautiful in the aftermath. NO ONE else has survived one, much less two. You guys are champs.

日本人はアメリカを憎めと教えられて育ってないからね。
敗戦国だけど。
戦争を憎めと教えられてるから。
悪いのは戦争や核であって、
特定の国だけじゃない。
戦争をなくそうとは思うけど、
アメリカに仕返ししてやろうとか、
それは思わないよ。
少なくとも私は。

Dear new Japanese friends... May I beg an explanation of something of you? I'm sure the answer is different for everyone... but... WHY do you like us? Many places we have gone to war with, and even some of the ones we have gone to war to save... seem to hate us But our nations engaged in some of what is arguably the most horrific warfare in human history to that date, and it's not like you got space away from us or our culture afterwards to gain peace over it why don't you hate us like the Germans do? Or the french? or on most days, half of the British? I'm VERY happy about it, and grateful, but I have always wondered what the difference is I know much of it for us is "We had a problem, we settled it, now there's not a problem"... kind of the "2 dudes fight on the playground and end up best friends" thing

Kouji-san: In my lifetime (GenX), Japanese people have *always* been greatly respected in the US as very intelligent, cultured, and hard working. In the 80s, we were told Japan would conquer us by their superior business efforts. Even then, no one hated the Japanese. Your great captains of industry spurred us to make better cars, electronics, etc. One of our greatest westerns - The Magnificent Seven - is an adaptation of Mr. Kurosawa’s “Seven Samurai.” My childhood was filled with martial arts movies and we all wanted to learn traditional Japanese martial arts. 🥋 Do not believe anyone who tells you otherwise. Americans admire and respect the Japanese for their discipline and beautiful civilization. 🙇🏻♂️

@SonohennoKuma Hayashi-san, Americans of my generation (GenX) have a deep respect and admiration for Japan. Traditional japanese martial arts exploded in popularity in the late 70s & 80s. No one here hates the Japanese at all. Japan has high culture and deep tradition.🙏🏻

米国の友人達が、想像していたよりも一層温かい…というより、熱い最高の奴らばかりだったので、益々好きになった。
私も米国を、特に古き良きアメリカの伝統をもっと愛したいと思う。米国の商品や文化に、もっと触れたくなった。
今回の経験のおかげで、触れる度に幸せな気持ちになれる自信がある。

マスメディアや知識人は、「いかに日本人が嫌われているか」「どれだけ日本が悪いか」ばかり語ってきた。 だが、このポストには米国の人達から日本に対する好意的な声が読み切れないほど溢れていて、とても驚いている。しかも福島なのに。 親愛なる米国の友人達、本当にありがとう。 @WallStreetMav

My friends in America, in Japan, expressing patriotism is met with shunning. For example, if I put a Japanese flag sticker on my car, police officers will stop me for questioning. I only display the flag at my front door on Japanese holidays. Almost no one displays the flag at their home on weekdays. This is due to the past excessive claims made by the Japanese right wing, but don't you think it's natural to show patriotism to the country you were born in?

@pirooooon3 I like this one better than the other one. Nicely done! (And I’m a retired US Marine).
