Japan Suffered Biggest Population Drop on Record in 2021

Japan is an ill nation in many ways. They’ve basically stopped breeding, due to social alienation and people chronically masturbating to cartoons.

So it isn’t surprising that the aging population would be experiencing high death – aside from anything to do with the vax.

However, it is hard to look at anything now without thinking about the vax. We would need this data parsed out a little bit better to get a real picture of what is going on here.

Japan Today:

Japan’s population had its largest drop on record, falling by 644,000 to just over 125.5 million in 2021, reflecting a decline in foreign residents amid tighter border controls over the coronavirus pandemic and the rapidly aging society, government data showed Friday.

The population stood at 125,502,000 as of Oct 1, down 644,000 from a year earlier for the 11th consecutive year of decline. The drop was the biggest since comparable data became available in 1950, the Ministry of Internal Affairs and Communications said.

The number of foreign nationals living in Japan dropped by 25,000 to 2,722,000 following the strict border controls that were put in place to mitigate imported coronavirus cases.

Japanese nationals totaled 122,780,000, a drop of 618,000 from a year earlier. While Japan saw 831,000 births in 2021, the number was outpaced by the year’s 1.44 million deaths.

Japan faces the dual challenge of a declining workforce and a graying population. However, the pace of population decline had slowed in recent years, helped by an increase in foreign workers coming to the country under a relaxed visa system to help ease the labor shortage.

Japan should be studied, probably.

They don’t have Jews, and yet they turned into a nation of childless anime masturbators.

Part of that is probably related to the Jews, in that they were humiliated in World War II, and then had a foreign system forced on them. But they’ve resisted visible ethnomasochism, even while not doing a right-wing revolution against the US occupation.

Maybe there is internalized racial self-hatred that we do not see?

Or maybe it’s something totally different – maybe hyper modernization and ultra urbanism simply lead to mass social alienation, regardless of the details?

We do not really know, and Japan, like all Asian countries, is opaque.
