Visible Minorities: The Tokyo Olympics Trap<\/strong>
\nBy Debito Arudou, Shingetsu News Agency, July 19, 2021<\/strong><\/p>\n

SNA (Tokyo) — On the eve of the Tokyo Olympics, let\u2019s talk about the mess.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

Much space has been devoted to the idiocracy behind spending record amounts of money on infrastructure that is not built to last, or even if it is, it often winds up abandoned. Further, holding a superspreader sports meet during a global pandemic is a surefire path to social discord and preventable death.<\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n

But it matters that Japan is hosting this mess. This column as usual will first focus on the Olympics\u2019 impact on our minorities, and then talk about the IOC\u2019s responsibility for scamming Japan…<\/em><\/strong>
