@MwamSim @10monthsoff What interpretation?! I'm just pointing out facts that's publicly available.

Also, you're clearly ignorant. Japan's government just announced it is ending the Cool Japan fund, which began in 2013 partly to promote regional tourism. They're ending it because it failed.

@10monthsoff @Barbaeio Japan's foreign population is only around 3%. In France, it's more than 10%. In the UK, it's almost 20%.

The fact that you keep ranting about migrants and globalization says more about your mental state than what is actually going on in your country. Take a chill pill.

[J Leon @belzbubbles]

@Pirat_Nation This is probably true for Temu as well.

[J Leon @belzbubbles]

@10monthsoff It sounds like you're the stupid one then. Tourism is around 5% of Japan's GDP.

No matter. We will hate people who do this and xenophobes like you but still love coming to Japan.

I come to Japan every year even though I myself was pushed from behind in Tokyo.

@10monthsoff @suzu8604 I would rather be dumb than evil. If you see no problem in hurting little children like that then you are the scum of the earth.

@ryo_signal68 @NikkeiAsia Someone obviously didn't read the article.

"Real consumer spending by the middle class dropped about 10% compared with the pre-COVID era, but expenditure on essentials was not greatly affected. Food expenses ranged from a 0.3% decline to a 0.7% increase. "

@BullTheoryio Déjà vu

@mekishikonogemu @gaijinthoughts Do you even fucking use logic at all? What do events during WWII have to do with this?

Do Japanese schools not teach you about logical fallacies? Do concepts like genetic fallacy or guilt by association ever ring a bell?

Probably not since you're so clouded by prejudice.

Why is it that @Citi I can't close a banking account online? Why do I have to waste time talking to a rep on the phone?!

With other banks, I can just close an account with a click of a button.

This is pure nonsense meant to prevent customers from closing their accounts.

Friend of mine is in charge of acquiring specialized manufacturing equipment worth millions. No Japanese company is in the shortlist. Here's why:
1. Japan's technology is behind
2. Tech support is an afterthought (extra)

BTW, China is not in the list for security reasons.

@Pinklippedprin1 @middle_class_us Cool story bro. Only problem is that not everyone wants to live in Detroit. Perhaps,a moron like you don't see an issue living in these LCOL areas.

[J Leon @belzbubbles]

@konichivalue @DevicesMan I wouldn't feed these nazi trolls if I were you. Japan is full of right wing losers from the West because their romanticized version of it fits nicely into their false narrative. Best to just ignore these delusional losers.

[J Leon @belzbubbles]

@_shiopan I don't disagree but the bigger factor is social media. I personally know a lot of wealthy people who have shown no prior interest in Japanese culture that suddenly decided they want to visit Japan because of what they keep seeing on social media.

[J Leon @belzbubbles]

@TheWasabiBros @MutsuAnjin Are you really suggesting that foreigners can achieve 100 percent assimilation into Japanese society? That's fucking delusional.

[J Leon @belzbubbles]

@unusual_whales They're faking productivity because middle managers keep coming up with bullshit metrics.

[J Leon @belzbubbles]

@mrjeffu TBH this never crossed my mind whenever I would go to Costco in Japan. This is such a terrible situation to be in during an earthquake. Thanks for sharing.

[J Leon @belzbubbles]

@quadcorespin @gaiaslastlaugh Only a moron contradicts without presenting an argument.

[J Leon @belzbubbles]

@Orca_Mop @gaijinthoughts You're talking out of your ass. Abe's view was pretty much counter to what was being practiced in Europe. He wanted to fast track PR for high skilled individuals and, at the same time, severely restrict incoming migrants because he didn't like what was happening in Europe.

[J Leon @belzbubbles]

@PoopsieW @gaijinthoughts TLDR I'm a self centered moron who doesn't care how policies affect other people.
