Why are the Japanese so depressed?
Why are the Japanese so depressed?
I am interested in the replies, but I have nothing to contribute, so have a free bump.
no welfare system, they're a nation of slaves to the corpos
if they step away they're carted off to hikikomori re-education camps that cost a shit tonne and more often than not mistreated
mental illness is extremely taboo, so they have to suffer in silence
it is seen more acceptable to literally kill yourself than to be neet
oh and they're likely to be virgins for life
I thought hikis can get NEETbux in japan
Japan is still stuck in the past.
They do a lot of stuff as if they're still stuck in the 90's
>mental illness is extremely taboo, so they have to suffer in silence
How the hell is it still taboo over there when anime like NGE are basically mainstream over there?
nation of overworked highly repressed people who are not allowed to celebrate any individualistic traits. you cant decide to be an artist or anything like that. you have to be a salaryman working 70 hours a week doing something you likely hate and you cant express yourself or any of that shit. you are trapped forever
bug society
Where you work is who you are
Complacency and being beta is rewarded
Like the rest of the world they have nothing to live for. Their family system is fucked. Their nationalism is fucked. Their entertainment is empty.
>hyperconsumeristic washed down culture that demands servitude from lower class workers with the pretense of not causing trouble for others i.e. "the nail that sticks out"
>females fuck themselves through anything
>underage prostitution is a very common thing
>lots and LOTS of entertainment
>lots and LOTS of porn
>ungodly and toxic work culture
>bullying is everpresent; school, work places, etcetera and it's not just teasing, but downright physical and psychological abuse
>generation of working parents left children to fend and grow up by themselves
>hush-hush culture of shame; meaning that if someone did something to you, you don't go to the police because you will be shamed for it
>got scammed? lol ur fault
>got raped? lol ur fault
>got your shit stolen? lol ur fault
>Slightly touched a government building with your elbow? deathrow
There is so much shit wrong in that place you wouldn't believe.
Then how come westerners romanticize it so much?
I thought Japan was heaven, this thread is making me think otherwise.
their cope consumerist media is more cope and bizarre and westerners percieve that as cool and cute. they dont realise real life in japan isnt like in the anime its way worse than the western world unless you like being an overworked cog in a machine with no sense of self
grass is greener, and different set of problems.
A few more things that are somewhat directly related to the depressed social life of nips:
>couples cheat on each other multiple times
>divorces are majority because of cheating
>it usually ends up in a pseudo race about who gets caught cheating first because in most cases, both cheat on their gfs/bfs/spouses
It was for tourism at first, then it was anime.
Japan has unironically some nice sights and sceneries, but like everything there, when there is something nice, there are abominations lurking behind.
It's a rabbit hole. Boy, if you knew about
>black companies
>yakuza businesses
>loan sharks
>hostess bars
>bar scams
Japan is a shithole.
>>black companies
>>yakuza businesses
>>loan sharks
>>hostess bars
>>bar scams
elaborate?
It exists as an outlet
And still compared to America these are nickpicks.
Places like Japan are permitted to exist because they serve as valuable exoteric cultural research and development for implementation in the near present globalist new world order. Japan being more of an economic focused test bed for the impact of their cultural and work ethic being imported to other countries slated for similar demographic trends. Korea was slated as a more social test bed with their development artificially guided to a profeminist woman dominated society for near present cultural subversion.
See also subversion of American "Black" culture from the 60s to early 90s and the self perpetuating decline locked in since the 00's.
See also the export of commodified and subversive Brazilian style transgenderism that was exported along with the late 80s/early 90s Black american transracial identity to any online global community.
The explosion in Only Fans and sex work is undoubtedly proofed and developed off of the Japanese sexual marketplace as acknowledgement of the co-developed economic and societal declines that support it.
corporate slaves who are overworked. their women are also infamous cheaters, gaijin dick chasers, and turn into huge sexless bitches when they finally get married. in fact marriage is basically a cold and heartless business proposal for the most part, there was a divorce case that revealed a man married to a woman still had to pay her for sex and there was still a limit on the times per month he could not exceed.
>black companies
Really shit companies that pay meager wages and treat their workers like shit.
>yakuza business
Fronts for money laundering
>loan sharks
Financial business that pose as pros, but are also backed by yakuza, to launder money.
They'll give you any loan you want, but with very, very high interest rates and short deadlines on payment.
>hostess bars
bars with women inside that will drink and talk to you.
You will pay for her drinks and she will try to get you to spend more. Prices are expensive.
>bar scams
This only applies if you're out drinking, but some people will try to get you into bars where you will be charged a fuckton of money.
Sometimes they will even drug you and when you can't pay, they'll get the police and the police will usually side with them.
This isn't a dick measuring competition, burgermutt.
Both are equally shitty places.
Well, you're pretty much spot on.
