Define “get away with.”
Imagine if you heard that Japan cut off people heads for saying bad things about their king or that they still had slavery or that they were dropping bombs on their neighbors. They would never “get away” with that!
This might actually be the dumbest post I have seen on Lemmy yet.
Yeah Japan has uncomfortable cultural quirks at times, and they’ve gotten away with a fair bit in the whole “pretending they weren’t evil in the 30s-40s” sphere, but like they’re not doing that much in the extremely bad category at the moment beyond the yakuza (and organized crime is outside government control by definition).
If you want to know who can get away with real bad shit it’s Saudi Arabia and it’s because the us financially benefits from their regime
