There is a lot of hypocrisy in the video's argument as well.
Japan can't point fingers on issues like slave labor, discrimination against a minority group, etc.
It points out prejudice against aborigines but look what Japan did to its Ainu population.

WELLINGTON, New Zealand (AP) -- Japan's whaling fleet was heading toward New Zealand-controlled waters in Antarctica, in breach of an agreement that it would remain in Australian waters during this year's whale hunt, a minister said Friday.

Conservation Minister Steve Chadwick said the Japanese fleet was photographed by a Royal New Zealand Air Force Orion airplane during a routine surveillance flight for illegal fishers in the southern oceans.

Chadwick said the Japanese whalers were heading toward the Ross Sea, an area for which New Zealand has international search and rescue responsibility.

After slaughtering whales in New Zealand's Antarctic waters last year, Japan had agreed under an International Whaling Commission protocol to hunt in Australian waters, Chadwick said.

"But it looks like they're heading into our territory down there -- very remote, very dangerous, very hostile territory," she told New Zealand's National Radio.

Last year's southern ocean whale hunt by Japan ended early after it's whaling fleet factory ship, Nisshin Maru, was crippled by fire and one crew member killed in New Zealand's Ross Sea waters.

The fire left the ship drifting and without engine power for 10 days, prompting strong protests over potential oil and chemical spills or damage to nearby Antarctic penguin colonies.

Don't fuck with the penguins, yo!
