“The largest cultural exchange in history just dropped,” remarked X’s Head of Product Nikita Bier on Sunday, referring to the onslaught of translated Japanese content that flooded the X timeline last week.

A Japanese man named Gary Saito proudly announced that he hosts “WILD HONKY TONK” events in Japan to spread the culture of the American South. “I want my American friends to know that there are Japanese people like me!”

Another Japanese poster, “Hotcake-kun,” reacted to a stereotypical photo of white American men barbecuing, lamenting: “I like this photo of American men and meat. Someday I’d like to join in on this in person.”

Others wistfully mused that “On a fine day like this, Americans are surely enjoying themselves watching races of those big trucks belching thick black smoke while having a BBQ, no doubt about it,” or that “Everyone in Japan knows “Take Me Home, Country Roads” by John Denver.”

Not only was this cultural celebration a much-needed boost for patriotic Americans, who are used to getting spit on and jeered at by our European “allies,” it was the latest in a decades-long streak of excellent relations with the Land of the Rising Sun.
