Yeah, every country has its problems, but that doesn’t mean they’re all as bad as each other.
Yes, Japan has a problem with allowing police to hold suspects for 3 weeks with no outside contact. But the reality is that very few people are ever arrested, to the point that nobody is afraid of police.
The same can’t be said for the US, where black parents have to tell their kids to not trust cops.
In my experience Japan is pretty great, so that’s where I live.
Other places I consider top tier are Holland and Scandinavia. Western Europe and developed Asia is tier 2, some of Eastern Europe and Canada are tier 3, USA and most of South America are tier 4, and any other countries I wouldn’t live in.
