That deal singlehandedly halted Japanese influence around the world. Unlike countries like China, Japan had no choice but to sign, due to WW2

Japan is easily the most overrated country in the world. Demographics are destiny. Japan probably won't exist by 2100 and it is too late for Kishida to change that. Their tech isn't even up to China's standards. They've seen no proper war since '45 and "realistic training" doesn't cut it. For countering China, they will be helpful but past 2030, their economy and society will collapse due to a horrific demographic situation that many people willingly overlook.

@j.langer5949 This is something China realises. With a demographic situation signalling collapse, they banned "effeminate men" in 2021. Basically acknowledging that feminine men in East Asia is damaging to births

Peter Zeihan is horrifically biased on Japan. The truth is that the UK, Russia, Germany, China, Japan, S.Korea will probably be facing economic and societal collapse within the coming decades. India will follow after the 2040s (fertility rate plummeting even faster than China's)

@simoncrooke1644 The problem with Japan's birth rate is people don't have TIME, MONEY or SECURITY.

@simoncrooke1644 I agree, however to be honest, I think China is more likely to make radical society changes which bear more success than Japan. The US is definitely an immigration expert however immigration isn't the magic bullet people think it is. As much as people don't like to believe this, immigration causes rife racial division. Every generation becomes less American, and more Hispanic, or black etc. This will have profound consequences on American society. Increasing births whilst regulating immigration is key. Call me racist or whatever, but having lived in the UK for 10 years, I can tell you I would NOT like to see the US go down the same track.

@QuizmasterLaw The UK is done as a major power. Japan is too. People willingly ignore China to a shocking degree of delusion but demographics will have their way with all 3 countries.

@QuizmasterLaw You've fallen in to the trap buddy. The UK is falling apart at the seams due to those Indian passports and foreigners coming in. Look at the state of London, Birmingham etc. I lived in the UK from when I was 5 to when I was a 16 year old teen. Went back last summer and holy shit have things gone south. I've never seen so many foreigners dominate a country like that. Besides, the British military is in terminal decline. Britain isn't a world class fighting force. "Better training, but we beat US marines in a simulated training battle!" The PLA could probably take on Britain with ease. Let alone the US.

It doesn't have the 2nd strongest navy on earth. That is bullshit. It's economy will be collapsing anytime soon. Demographics, my friend, demographics.....

They are. But not one that can challenge the US.

@junkscience6397 The only way for America to fall is through the inside, China knows this. Look at the kids born from 2005 to 2010. Every last one of them has a Chinese spy app on their phone, which they spend 2 hours on every single day. If that ain't commie infiltration, tell me what is.

@bighands69 Russian arms are great. The problem with the war in Ukraine is god awful planning and logistics. AKs are great, Russian tanks are great, jets decent but when you've got 80 mile long traffic jams, you've fucked it up.

The Japanese aren't thinking long term. Look at their demographics. Most people are so infatuated with Japan that they fail to see their own bias.

Japan has changed a LOT since '45. They aren't the strong Asian tiger that people think. Demographics gentlemen, demographics
