I'm sorry you ran into that.

Different people have different reasons for the things they do.
Not all players are the same, whether they be Japanese, North American, European, etc.
But people naturally generalize to make life's complexities more manageable.

Of course it's often best to just shrug it off because it's not personal, and move on... hoping for a better outcome the next time. Such is life no matter where we are or what we do.

People who discriminate against large swaths of the population are ultimately just hurting themselves, even though they may not realize it for a while.
