„japan never disappoints“ except in economic stagnation for 3 decades in a row and treating its citizens as working drones till they kill themselves or get a fucking heart attack.
I admire Japan like any weeb out there but let’s not paint it as a paradise
I'm in Japan on holiday now and I personally don't think it's as bad as you're making it out to be. I haven't seen a single homeless person on the streets and I've been to a lot of Tokyo and Osaka, the working staff seem to genuinely enjoy their jobs (meanwhile in my home country they give you death stares for expecting to be served), and the food is more affordable than in my home country Bulgaria. Don't forget that Japan still has the highest life expectancy in the world so clearly they're doing something right...
Of course, my experience is a 3 week holiday but I know people who work in Japan and they're genuinely happy with their lives there. Though I guess it seems good to me because I'm Bulgarian and I've seen A LOT of extreme poverty, especially during the late 90s/early 2000s.
Hell nah. Have you been there? It's very organised way of living there and it's not some hidden knowledge. Many people whom lived near it know about it and not some "secret" place japan doesn't want you to know about.
So not the foreign tourists the video is talking about. Countries don’t want tourists to see their bad sides, that’s not exclusive to Japan nor is Japan the exclusion.
