Your racist remark aside, huge for-profit entities act unethically because of economic incentives. It's ridiculous to assert that it's something ingrained into a country's culture.

I beg to differ. It's not ridiculous at all. The go-to retort to any kind of mild criticism for Japanese is people is to say "but country x or person y did the same, too!"

I have never heard this in nearly the same frequency or predictability from members of any other culture. It's almost cute in how revealing it is when you hit their weak spot.

You could praise or criticize Japan all you want, but either way your reasoning remains flawed. Corporate greed and accountability evasion is an artifact of human nature, but you attribute it to race and culture instead. Your only justification of that is the equivalent of "because everyone disagrees with me in the same way."

What's actually revealing is how you were quick to assume my nationality and spit out racist insults.

Your nickname says you're either weeaboo or Japanese (I guess the first).

And it's 100% Japanese culture that creates these types of dangerous accidents. South Korea has them too, because they culturally so close (confucianism and remnants of feudalism being at the core of the problem).
