Japan is like if you combined 1950s white America with one of Ted's nightmares :a-guy:

    people should be more critical of japan too.

    you can't even live together before marriage without being shamed.

    there are "no foreigners allowed" signs at tons of businesses.

    people are expected to work themselves to death.

    loneliness is more of an epidemic there than anywhere else on earth.

    suicide is sky high.

    not enough people have kids to replace the population because life is so terrible.

    the culture is extremely sexist and misogynist, similar to 1950s America.

    major historical denialism about past atrocities.

    it's just an extremely collectively-damaged mass psychology going on there.

      I'd argue most modern countries/cultures exhibit most of these traits, and/or equivalently awful traits. It is the done thing.
