    That is why I asked in the 3rd page of this thread the exact term that was used. This can be a mis-understanding unless the OP is also fluent, and god forbid if google translate or something equally inaccurate was used.
    Isn't it "baka gaijin"?

    Nobody really says that here though. They might call you Baka, but I can’t really say I’ve heard “Baka gaijin” said maliciously. It’s less about you being a foreigner and more about you being ignorant/illiterate.

    Come to think of it, I don’t think anyone actually calls anyone Baka when they are really angry… it’s like…cliche romance anime nonsense.

    …and I can’t remember even being called gaijin to my face before… I think at worst I’ve had friends say “sasuga Amerikajin da ne!” at some dumb thing I did. (Translate: “That’s an American for ya, lol”)

    Google translate is notoriously trash with Japanese.
