Hah you deleted it yourself? owned 4 life much?

I didn't delete it a mod did. I'll just go ahead and post my last rebuttal....


From stateside (aka what sucks about the US) -
- Everything on MTV/VH1
>The channel evolved from what it once was based on what they could make money on, this is a petty reason to think the US sucks, it is very easy to ignore them
- Jonas Brothers
>Again, easy to ignore. I live in the US and I've heard maybe 3 Jonas Brother's songs in my life
- Rap/hip-hop
>I don't understand why you think this sucks. Some of it is quite good. Could it be that you have a problem with black people?
- Religion is wide-spread and interferes with politics
>Many people identify with a religion but I doubt many practice it as widely as you think and the younger generations are becoming more and more secular
- Jennifer Aniston
>What is your problem with Jennifer Aniston? She is hot as fuck and FRIENDS was awesome
- Twilight
>One book series? A passing fad
- Lady Gaga
>Is a passing fad
- "Reality" television
>Can be grouped under MTv/VH1 and Japan has all those shitty gameshows so I'm not sure why you gripe on this but not those
- Everything on Comedy Central (besides South Park)
Again, 1 cable channel? Also Colbert report is awesome, and so is Futurama
- Michael Bay movies
So you don't like one director? Oh ok, America must be TERRIBLE, we must only have one director making movies in the whole industry. No.

>> No.6021655

From nipponside -
- Much higher (public) standards of respect/etiquette
>Still have segregated areas/ Japanese only. That doesn't sound very respectful to me.
- Much lower percentage of illegal substance usage (and complete public disapproval of it)
>Drug use is on the rise in Japan (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/15542746)), and I guess that means you allow yourself to be controlled by your government more easily
- Far better education up through high school
>I will concede this point, US primary and secondary school is lacking
- Generally pacifist rather than feeling obligated to police (aka boss around) other nations
>If we didn't boss other nations around the world would be a worse place
- Longer lifespan, better healthcare system
>The difference is only about 3 years, and better health care system is debatable, but the US has better doctors
- Better diet, only 3% obese population (compared to >50% in US)
>I'm sorry all you can afford to eat is rice, bur really there are many in the US who eat very healthily, myself included

Laws in place for a "fat tax" that encourages fitness
>Cool taking away of civil liberties/telling people how to live their lives
- Higher percentage of college graduates/better educated (~54% Jpn vs ~26% US)
>The US percentage is actually more like 29 and you're taking the numbers out of context. The population of the US is about 3x that of Japan so the number of actual people holding college degrees in the US is about 20 million more. And adding to that the Universities in the US are of higher caliber than those in Japan in the research they do and the education they give. I would bet many of those Japanese holding higher degrees attained them from US institutions
- Far lower crime rates overall
>Fair point, but crime has been rising in Japan
- 1-2% Christian population, rest is secular/atheist
>You have already mentioned this before, Congratulations. However I have already made the point that the US is becoming more secular as the population ages.

In retrospect looking at the points you made your reasons for not liking the US are very nitpicky, bringing up bands, cable channels, and an actress, as if there were no television programs or actors in Japan which you do not like. You say nothing of the things you don't like about Japan or even really compare the two countries at the good points. Your list seems very biased to me.

>>6021658

Fuck, I had just finished a counter to all this and the thread got deleted when I posted. Let me re-piece it then before this thread dies too.

For one, it was a dual-pronged approach. I half assume you made this thread because you don't like Japanese culture; I was pointing out that you yourself are extremely selective/tunnel-visioning your own culture and fail to see that there are just as many fouls (if not more) coming out of the U.S than Japan. I didn't explicitly explain this partly because not enough text space, partly because I was hoping you were bright enough to notice the comparison types.

Give me another minute or two to continue..

Second, you took the "we'll get better/they'll get worse" approach, which is nothing more than speculation and presents zero leverage against real statistics. You actually admitted that many of my points were valid though, or attempted to dull the truth by pulling up red-herrings or speculation, and so you can't really claim much victory here at all.

Also on that, Japan is set for decline, but so is the U.S, and a far worse one it will get.. upcoming religious strife between Christians/Muslims (guaranteed to sour the Middle East and US for 50+ more years due to people blinded by "faith").. plus the U.S's debt and unemployment problem is far worse than Japan's + Japan is not going to have to compete head-to-head with China, who is already laying down the keels of its first carrier and seeks to eventually expel the US from Asia and render its blue-water navy as a stoppable force.

Lastly and perhaps most importantly, I myself am American. Seeing the situation we are in, myself (and any other intellectuals) simply MUST catch ourselves up-to-date with the rest of the world... where we stand in various statistics, what we are doing, where we are going, and most importantly knowing what we are up against and where to aim our improvements.

Perhaps you should think from a more globally competitive approach rather than regional... Get fit, get better-educated, don't be a rude slob, don't be arrogant and condescending towards other nationalities. We no longer ourselves stand on much of any high ground compared to other first-world countries, besides things totally out of our control: a government that cares more about beating the other party's vote than getting shit done, a military which gets more funding than the rest of the armies of the Earth combined, and shrewd businessmen ripping off millions in sweat-shops in India, China etc making 46 cents an hour so that we can buy socks at Wal-Mart for a dollar. That's what we do and how we're operating, and it's not much to be proud of from any sane human's point of view. So kindly fuck off and re-evaluate your priorities.

Seeing how a shitty North Korean sub managed to blow up a state-of-the-art US destroyer and get away with it, no, we're not that much better. Other nations are already operating remote aircraft drones, Russia's PAK-FA is a resounding answer to the F-22 and is already undergoing testing; we only have like 20 B-2s and other nations are also developing stealth craft ... fyi, in Kosovo, an F-117 was downed, and most of it was salvaged by Russians. They really do have stealth; they are simply wise to shut up about it unless they'd need to use it.

Also the most recently-updated Fulcrums and Flankers are at least as good as F/A-18s, F-15s and better than F-16s. China and India operate them. We're not so great anymore besides bigger carriers and nuclear subs, both of which China is working on. We'll be able to handle China in a non-nuclear conflict for another 20 years tops, after that things may start to change if our economy keeps on sucking and our quality of life gets worse.
