And yet people, including here, fawn over the place. Disgusting.

i went there last year.. it was an amazing place to see. I enjoyed it far more than I ever imagined I would and way more than any of the european countries we went to before that.

that doesn't mean i think they're angels or that they didn't commit atrocities and that a fair number of the japanese people aren't fucked in the head.

Soft power goes a long way. Same way most of the major NATO countries are still glamorized more than they should be.

The weebs here have been known to do awful apologetics to sanitize media exports that they like (or don't even know but they're just illiterate), but I don't know of them doing apologetics for Japanese society itself.
