Like religious leadership voted in a more or less democratic process? Like most wars in human history? Like fun stuff as waterboarding? Guantanamo? Hiroshima? Nagasaki? Crashing stock markets?
I have even more examples but I guess I made my point
Music, food, superior military, most blockbuster movies good or bad comes from there, best porn from there (please don't try and say european amateur porn is better cuz it's not u lunatic and japan is a good country but censored porn? Fuck that),
most big gaming companies/devs resides there (and don't bring in your indie bullshit) also superior sport (MMA, Basket, NHL hockey, American football and much more.
What's not to like besides US killing precious terrorists and nuke in Japan (which was necessary because of their ''never back down, never quit (suicide kamikaze tactics) attitude).
So bottomline without going all political and shit.
It's great!
