No, but I've lived in Korea for a while. Homogenous societies tend to have the same hangups.

Western person living in a homogenous Asian society will not have the same problems as someone who is hapa or something like a Chinese person living in Japan. Also, the context of a foreigner living in Japan in different than a POC living in the US or another melting pot country.

Yes, the context is definitely different, and the problems a foreign resident faces are different from those faced by those permanently living in Japan (although Japan's incredibly strict, only-barely-relaxed-in-recent-years immigration policies actually make it fairly tough for someone to go from being one to the other, much less obtain citizenship, whether American or Chinese). However, it is also true that Japan as a country has institutionalized, societal, and casual racism towards anyone who is not Yamato Japanese.

I don't know if I'd call it "oppression" myself in the context of being a foreigner, but some pretty fucked up shit happens to non-Japanese people out here. Recently, there was a story about a local government office outright attempting to steal money from its foreign (Western) workers, essentially because they thought the foreigners were too dumb to notice. I also have an Australian friend who was nearly imprisoned and is now not allowed back in the country over a minor traffic violation. This is not just directed at you, anon -- I think a lot of people see "racism against whites in Japan" and just think "oh sometimes people are mean maybe" (literally, someone said that to me the other day), but there's actually some pretty serious stuff that goes on here.
