Racial homogeneity doesn't necessarily explain why you don't get mugged at night. A mugger doesn't see race; a mugger sees money, or lack thereof on their own part. Threatening someone with violence is their path of least resistance, so maybe there's an alternative in Japan (a working social safety net perhaps?).
- decafninja 3y agoRacism exists everywhere. Often, one or more groups are downtrodden, and that leads to the social grievances that result in things like crime. Racism exists in countries like Japan too. Except the number of non-Japanese (or non East Asian who can often pass for Japanese) are statistically so insignificant that it is far less of an issue than say, the US.
