Her English-speaking Japanese guide (it was a group tour cuz she traveled alone) explained this to the tourists too wishy-washy because they might get offended. She later found out that the gaisensha slogan was "foreigners are horrible and should get out of Japan" after she personally asked the guide and got extremely offended afterwards.
Speaking of which, is this a common sight in Japan to have far-right groups that go around with their scary vehicles? My sister might move to Japan for her work and I might teach English in Japan right after I get my TESL certification. Should I be worried?
Let's say this was my friend's worse experience, like her encounter of a Fascist rally in Leipzig, Germany (ex-East German city).

yes it is the worst experience of your life...until you realize you can turn and walk away. The only "power" they have is their voice. I recommend using yours.
