So how did japan, an extremely militaristic and feudal society become a weeb nation in almost half a century?

I know about the reconstruction but I don't see how that could cause this. As far as I know it was mainly just economic aid.

It's just pop media appealing to the huge market growing up in the 80's and 90's where this style was all the rage, and with Japanese demographics being what it is they'll linger for quite some time.

Think of it like how all female news casters in America seem to have the same hair and makeup as actresses and models from the 60's and 70's when a lot of men today had their first erections. In a few decades Japanese media will again be almost unrecognizable.

Also Japan can't be a weeb nation because to be weeb means to want to be Japanese to an obnoxious degree.

It always was like that. Read the first novel ever written, The Tale of Genji.

You do realize that they got that constitution after America mindbroke their nation, which was caused by the attack on Pearl Harbor, which was caused by America placing an embargo on Japan, which was caused by The Second Sino-Japanese War.

Not him, but Japan's foreign relations were peaceful (and extremely limited) until very recently. Internally they hacked each other up first class.

Yes but even before that they weren't too conquer happy, mostly a couple forays into gookland during the middle ages and then the rape fest during 20's, 30's, 40's.

Open up immigration.

unironically though it doesn't need fixing.
>>
>>1424708
More immigrants would cuck the Japanese men out of existence. They are slowly becoming mostly shut ins. At least men in the west still at least try even if less are getting married.

I'm not even a /pol/tard. I hate the over use of the word cuck but face it, they would be bred out o existence. They don't even care about fucking their own women. Foreigners will do that more willing once they begin to assimilate.

It is a problem for Japan with or without immigration. And there is much better reasons to not want immigration to discuss instead

japanese people were always a bunch of faggots, but they were a bunch of manly faggots before... samurais, foot soldiers and even generals would sometimes have buttbuddies they would openly fuck during their campaigns and homossexuality wasn't taboo at all

thing is "harsh times make harsh people, soft times make soft people" - also, having a war killing most of your youth and in special males along with a couple of bombs usually help fucking up things since single women are just half of the pair you need to properly raise a child.

cause money can justify pretty much anything. if JPop boy bands and Pokemon can bring the cash into Japan where military conquest couldn't, you'll just have to make do with that.

As for giving up militarism, the simple answer is that losing your war against titanic world powers like the US, China, and USSR and being stripped of possessing an army over 300,000 really kills the dream. So if you can't become rich and influential by killing people and taking their shit, you can get rich and influential by selling shit that people want.
