Stay where youre at. Its not you that has to go, it's THEM (the Premier of NSW just resigned in disgrace in the middle of an anti-corruption probe). I'm not surrendering one square inch of my country. "Smart" Australians feel the same way.
30 year Japan resident here. Not gonna happen. Japan doesn't do refugees.
Why does Japan have societal stability? Because everybody's Japanese. And those who aren't are either entertainers ("English conversation teachers") or are doing their damnedest to assimilate. The reaction you get does indeed change 180˚ if you can speak fluently, but that's just step one of blending in and not making people uncomfortable.
Aussies can all learn Japanese to fluency, then maybe we can look at this again, and Japan will probably still say no.
Japan will not welcome them, for the same reason we dont welcome illegals who hop the border. Need to stand your ground and fight for change. The people of Australia need to take the gloves off and stop pretending this can be solved peacefully. Peaceful only works when the government doesnt want a fight either
Japan has a tight immigration system and they view everyone non Japanese as inferior. They won't be welcoming Aussies lol
Singapore and Norway are also "living with covid" vs lockdowns. Try them before Japan.

Can't imagine why they might have made you feel unwelcome.

Japan is a demographic disaster, full of basket cases who can't procreate.
Other than that, it's cool.

Please stop the talk about moving, running, etc.
If we keep that up, there won't be anywhere left to flee TO once the disease (totalitarianism / fascism / communism) infects where you move TO.
Talk of moving, running, etc. is pure fucking cowardice.
Now Is the time to stand and fight, or your kids and their kids will not have anywhere to flee to for safety & freedom.
Fuck; WE OURSELVES won't have ANY freedoms left inside of 3-5 years if they keep going UNOPPOSED at the rate they have been.
Man up.
The Japanese aren't fond of outsiders
Tyranny always fail.
