What's going on with the math here? Percent per 100'000?

07%

This is why punctuation is important.

Admittedly, ignorance respects no particular faith. That said, Christianity does seem to have quite the stranglehold on it.

To be fair there is also the suicide rate.

Also what the fuck were they expecting, Japan to be some Christian paradise?

I do not trust any stats that come out of Japan in terms of homelessness. If there's a statistic that's embarrassing for Japanese society, you know damn well they're gonna try to cover it up with technicalities.

In Japan, the legal definition for someone who is homeless is: "those who use city parks, riverbanks, roads, train stations and other facilities as their place of stay in order to live their daily lives."

So that doesn't include living in your car, living in insecure housing, living in shelters, or living in internet cafés, of which in 2020 there were about 15,000 'net café refugees' in Tokyo alone.

Sooo yeah, Japan can claim to officially have a super low homeless population, because they've narrowed the definition so much that you have to literally be sleeping on the street for it to count.

I guess not having many Jesus cult members helps

Your unhoused numbers are wrong. Those are the official "sleeping on the streets" numbers, which is not the same thing. First because they're official, and therefore almost certainly undercounting, and second because they exclude all of the situations where people don't have houses but are kinda not exactly in a cardboard box.

Some people are shockingly stupid, even though I've spent my entire life finding out how stupid people can be.

Fuck proselytizing religions. No, I won't join your stupid fucking cult. Fuck right off.

07%/100000

% per 100k? This person is making a valid point, but it's undermined somewhat by the fact they've clearly fucked up something.

Heartbroken because it should be 0%?

I just woke up, but I don't think the unit should be percentage per 100k people. Otherwise, I agree with the statement though.

Given the confluence of weeb culture and the alt-right (think incels and “traditionalists” with anime avatars, right-wing gamers pointing to Japan as a high-tech conservative utopia untouched by wokeness and such), it was inevitable that sooner or later someone would try to imagine a Japan that goes to Latin Mass.
