You make a good point. I suppose when I said I was talking about kanji tattoos on people with no connection to Japan, I was simply expressing my dislike for the fetishization of Japanese by getting a tattoo that you don't understand for the reason that it makes you feel mystical or cool just because it's in Japanese.
