I said something about the American occupation in another thread so I want to chip in on this. It was purely in a context of a political discussion, and I agree with Nyororin. I don't think people have a beef on it today unless maybe they are like 80 years old.

Also, people assume you are an American because the majority of non-Asian looking people are American in Japan. So, sorry if it annoys you but please give them a break.
