top is a wasteland for people in cars to stop at and leave, its a truck stop but functionally not much different from many american towns and "cities"
bottom is a bustling dense city where people live and work and walk to do things and meet people
hope this helps Black person
i probably would if it wasnt insanely expensive. do you know why its expensive? because lots of people want to live in that kind of environment, so the demand far exceeds the supply. so more places should be allowed to build densely like that
I'm not interested in affording it, my ideal city is ~50k next to the sea and some great nature and certainly not any gollywogs

i think i know this guys art and he makes good points but this is off. troony leftists constantly complain that american cities arent set up in commie style functional blacks and that they instead replicate themselves over and over which they claim wastes space ie suburbs should have their own grocery stores and gas stations etc, everyone should be forced to use the city center shopping zone for their needs
>bottom is a bustling dense city where people live and work and walk to do things and meet people
Bottom are a series of ads for businesses people make brief stops at, top is also a series of ads for business people make brief stops at
Imagine romanticizing menial transactions between businesses and customers, how autistic
this is the most moronic argument of the past 10 years. if it's close you can walk, if you need to go further use a car or a bike or something.
There, done.
yea i live in a city. i can walk or bicycle or go with car. depending on the mood and weather. if i'm on countryside, i'm definitely using car. frick walking 30km to buy milk or something
The problem is walk fetishists can't talk about anything without politicizing "walking" as a dogwhistle for fellow leftists and climate change/global warming believers to virtue signal.
Nothing wrong with walking, but making it a public policy issue to force 15 minute bug cities and corporate agendas is fricking annoying.
>REEEEEEEEEEEEE YOU CAN'T JUST HAVE GAS FOOD AND AMENITIES AT A REST STOP ON THE HIGHWAY REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE WHY DON'T YOU JUST WALK ACROSS THE COUNTRY REEEEEEEEEEEE
>there's some grass and trees surrounding it therefore it's not a car-focused hellscape
bruh
The reason the image is so popular isn't because people want to shit on that specific place, it's because as an American you see this shit anywhere. This could be almost anywhere in the country. Even cities that are supposedly more pedestrian friendly still have a ton of places like this where you have to use a car or you get fricked.
100% true and the people disagreeing don't go outside, unironically. Being a pedestrian on the top is a nightmare. I don't even think there's any sidewalks in that image, you HAVE to drive to get to those places. Japan has strong public transit and walkable cities and thus everything is condensed and designed for people. This is not some unique quality to Japan, this is how every city in the world used to be designed before cars, some countries designed to keep it and some decided to tear out their cities for roads and parking lots.
The top image is 100% gas stations and fast food, whereas the bottom image is 90% unique restaurants and bars. But the comparison is shit anyways, they chose an extremely dense alley in a downtown area of Japan to compare with a middle of nowhere truck stop in America. A more accurate comparison would have been with a busy neighborhood in NY
If anime is inspiring Transgenderism, why isn't Japan as Gay or transgender as America?
If Maple Syrup was making people gay you would expect twice as many homos in the North as the South. Not half as many.
19.7% of Gen Z is LGBT in America
https://www.dentsu.co.jp/en/news/release/2021/0408-010371.html
The 2020 survey shows that 8.9% of the respondents identified as being LGBTQ+, unchanged from the result of the 2018 survey.
By this method, the survey found that 0.62% of respondents were questioning their sexual identity (had not determined or understood their sexual identity), and 1.63% were questioning their sexual orientation (had not determined or understood their sexual orientation). Furthermore, 0.81% of respondents were asexual and aromantic (did not feel sexual or romantic attraction to others), and 1.20% were non-binary in gender (did not identify as being male or female).
8.9% is less than half of 19.7%.
Clearly whatever is making people Gay is affecting Americans more than twice as much as it is effecting Japanese

Are you claiming they were all into anime?
Because if not I don't see the anime-LGBT connection
The difference is that everything you see in the top belongs to some mega conglomerate. Mcdonalds, exxon, shell, etc are all multi billion dollar companies.
The buildings you see in the bottom are all mostly independent izakayas, restaurants, and other sorts of shops
>bro it’s easy to get to those stores just walk 15 minutes to the station then take JR 30 minutes to Osaka station then walk 10 minutes to the Midosuji line oh then bro you just have to take the Midosuji line 15 minutes to Shinsaibashi then it’s just another 20 minute walk to the store bro it’s so easy
no sure what you mean. i used to live in japan and america. bottom pic is just a row of office buildings with stores on every level. how can you possibly try to claim that hard to navigate by walking?
I used to live in Japan too so you know most people don’t live that close to the city center and need to take long ~30 minute train rides to get the the city center and that’s if they’re living in a nice enough area where they don’t need to transfer.
no they dont. 90% of the jap population is urban and they dont have dumb zoning laws so their houses are all over the city and not sectioned off in some distant suburb. youre either lying or a total fricking idiot
your Black person brain may be confusing commute times for work with what we are talking about which is just city/store access close by
Are you legit moronic? Do you think most Japanese people live in these city centers? Working class people live further out. Sorry you think you’re an expert after being there for 2 weeks but your wrong
>Somehow millions of Japanese manage it every day.
Lots don't and basically become permanent shut ins because going outside is terrifying to them. Doesn't exactly sound like some ideal society if you ask me.
Or instead you could go to the stores closer to your house
But you're right that ironically public transit takes much longer if your start and end destinations aren't right next to a station on the same line
In Kansai the price of living is heavily connected to the proximity of which kind of train station you’re living near. For example, living near a Hankyu station (like your pic) is considered very nice, JR is middling and Hanshin is lower class. Combine that with the fact that the line you’re talking about services mostly the Kyoto, Takatsuki and Ashiya areas the cost of living near any station you pictured is extremely expensive and not really representative of your average Japanese person.
I live in a town of 10,000 people and it took me nearly 2 hours to pick up money from the bank, pick up a literal handful of things from walmart, and visit the post office. All 3 of those places are less than a mile apart from eachother and I spent most of that time sitting in traffic.

most japanese live in large cities. "urban" isnt some technicality. you would know this if you werent a Black person brained redditor trying to lie his way out of embarrassment
>According to worldometer, Japan’s population in 2021 is 126,050,804. But only 8% of that live in rural areas, decreasing by 13% since 2000.

no only are almost all jap urban, they almost all live in large cities
I’m not talking about rural vs urban you moron and I never said people live in rural areas. I’m saying the people living in urban areas for the most part don’t live close to the major shopping districts and have to take a long time walking and taking public transportation to get places. Does your moronic brain honestly think the millions of people living in Osaka are within walking distance of Umeda, Shinsaibashi or Namba? Are you seriously that dumb? They DONT live near all the commodities you’re thinking of. Most live out and far away from those large shopping areas. Yes they have smaller shops near them but those aren’t where people do the majority of their shopping.
rural areas are the least walkable areas in america and it takes fricking 5min to get to a store. cities suck because they suck and have to deal with things like Black folk and bus lanes and bike lanes and shitskin tides of migrants clogging up the roads
Black people live in rural areas too, man. Go look at Mississippi or Louisiana some day.
I don't care how racist you are, I'd rather have high speed rails as an option in this country
some people take it as an unbearable insult when not every square inch of the road is dedicated to cars
