Im pretty sure Japan is sharing software and ideas all the time
I struggle to see Japan as a bastion of freedom lol. Fun place to visit for sure, but between the archaic drug laws and suicide forests I'm not sure they are a society others should be modeling themselves after.
this is moving goalposts, they specified sharing software and ideas. But check out this list of suicide rates if you think our gun culture is beneficial at all https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_by_suicide_rate
Not sure if the countries with more gun rights are either more free or have a society with modeling after.
Compared to Japan, I mean yeah. Living in Japan & South Korea is absolutely hell, they're probably some of the most conservative governments/societies in the world, certainly the most conservative in the first world.
