We dem boyce
that's not mpreg
I am disappointed
Lolwut
The economic crisis was because of a house bubble
Also, its really easy to enter Japan
Gaijin go home.
I'm in Japan right now =p
:p
They are actually pretty friendly to gaijins. You just wont become one of them
The gaijin card is a thing
I mean... you can if you have genetic heritage.
I now know how black people get away with everything
You can nationalize without problems. But if you look like a gaijin they have different expectations of you
This is true.
And its the only "western" country that's safe
you can leave your phone in the middle of the street for 3 hours. When you get back its there
Society works here
The possibilities are incredible
You know manga/internet cafes?
They only work here because of the culture
In the US a black guy would rob half the booths in 10mins
there's no security needed here
I mean social privileges like that only works in a tight knit society.
Advantages of being on an island and never being officially conquered by a foreign power.
No mass immigration
No multiculturalism
Which has the disadvantages of erasing some of the non-mainstream indigenous cultures... like the Ainu.
Also, life is hard if you don't assimilate
Everything has its cons and pros
I'm fine with their cons
True. However I feel that for the sake of history, it is the moral obligation of a dominate culture to preserve and archive the cultures they assimilate.
If you look at history, we always did the reverse
And that's what makes those instances where thing do survive, ever more precious.
The dominant culture colonised and destroyed the others, forcing them in one way or another to adapt to the dominant one
Like when the Taliban bombard Buddhist carvings off the side of a mountain. Tragedy for the world.
This topic sounds a bit unrelated to japan though
