   I wonder, it seems like PewDiePie actually lives in Japan now, but did he actually take the time to learn Japanese though?
   Or is he yet another stereotypical western gaijin who refuses to learn Japanese, locks himself up into Tokyo's concrete jungle for the rest of his life into the English speaking gaijin-bubble, and relies on his wife to do all the Japanese language requiring work for him like 99% of the other western gaijin living in Japan?

     I really, really despise that. What the fuck is the point of living in a country if you're not interested enough in the culture to even learn the fucking language? I say kick them all out. Hell, I'd be reluctant to even go to Japan for tourism, without knowing the language well enough to talk to people, because it's obnoxious AND it limits the experience to the point of not even being worth it.
     
     Of course, PewDiePie gets a pass because he has money, and that's all governments care about. They want people with either money (the rich get exemptions from bureaucracy, travel restrictions and even fuel tax) or degrees and certificates, to prove that they are good slaves that do what they're told. Or to be 60 IQ barbarians that just cross the border anyway with no bureaucracy at all and will follow any orders.
     
     It's the same everywhere in the world. The people that they don't want in, in any country, are people that cannot be proven to be in one of those easily-controlled technology. Even if they know the culture and the language, and sometimes even if they come from a family from that country.
