The Japanese embody borders, culture and language. They are a homogeneous people. And they are an example of what a country can become after being devastated by war almost 80 years ago. Highest test scores. Innovators. Strong economy. Minimal street crime. They understand what's happening in the world.
I live in a small mountain town in Japan and I still see women in hijabs at the store and such. Japan is importing Malaysians, Sri Lankans, and others to work the fields (along with Vietnamese and Chinese) because rural populations are dwindling and kids are growing up and moving to the big cities to find jobs rather than continue the family's farms.
I know several Filipinas working in Japan, but they aren't working in the fields. Working as office cleaners and store clerks etc... A pain in the ass for them because they had to get extensive training in Manila with no pay, months of training. Had to learn to speak Japanese...
Japan is quite racist in that you will NEVER fit in, but thats ok.
Yeah, but I never fit in when I lived in America. I like how people leave me alone here. I generally keep to myself and my family and don't feel lonely without friends to spend time with. Most of my social interaction is online via email, messaging, vidchat, etc.
Yeah, I'm happy alone and spend a lot of time alone, and am happy with it as well. However, along with typing Verbose, I talk non-stop when I have a chance. Rarely trivia mostly life stories and MAGA stuff these days...
I'm no Tesla, but did ok on IQ tests and AZFAB, ACT, and GED tests. I have read that intelligent people often are ok with few friends. I like to sing Karaoke, but its just for the attaboys I never got as a child. It feels great when people dance or turn on their cellphone flashlights!
Great points. The effort they put towards honor and respect for others is truly remarkable, maybe even to a fault.
I've been there several times and I'm always blown away by how welcoming and point they all are. Unfortunately they have too much faith in government authority.
I was there a few weeks after the big earthquake while the Fukushima reactor was still leaking. I was walking to the subway while there was a brief protest (I think over the mandatory brownouts and curfews) in downtown Tokyo. The police showed up in massive force spilling out of several Police Busses 🚌. The protesters gave in right away and immediately dispersed. Many of them were wearing masks way back then, possibly to disguise themselves.🤷♂️
Sadly huge percentages of them fell for the scamdemic.
I think a lot of these Asian countries were wearing masks long before Covid.
Spot on DrMcCoy, I lived in the Philippines 3 years before the COVID bullshit and plenty wore masks, however away from downtown during COVID lockdowns many people cheated by not wearing the masks, not wearing them completely, or using cloth masks that were easier to breathe through. More compliant, but also more prone to cheating.
Agreed.
I saw lots of masks in Vietnam and Indonesia long before the scamdemic, but they were worn mostly by people riding scooters while traveling to avoid the dusty and water spray from the poor roads.
In the US, the Asian populations are much more compliant with the mask "requests".
This is racist. U nahtzee
