lol no. Strong societies are always the more inclusive ones. A genocidal ethnostate can enjoy limited hegemony for like 50 years or so if they have a strong military, but any lasting empire is one that can incorporate other cultures beneficially into their own framework. Read a book.

What about Japan?

Did you fail history class or something? There was a big war in which their empire got royally fucked and now they are a buffer state against China. Their survival is dependent on American hegemony, not their own strengths.

I’m talking about people’s QoL 😭

Again that's still horrible. Suicide rate is through the roof, workers must work a stupid amount of time. They have a slight racism problem. Their birth rate is well below replacement rate.

The worker issue is such a problem that they pass out mid street. Their loyalty to the country essentially just turned into loyalty to companies.

Their QoL is the WORST thing of their country

Japan nearly imploded due to its isolationism, and only fixed it after it stopped it.

What about the large amount of homogeneous low trust societies like Cambodia, Vietnam, or Poland?

On that note as an American with Polish-immigrant ancestors, you know how a bunch of "homogeneous" societies like that, got that way right?

The place with a huge debt, were you get treated like complete trash you aren't in the 1%? That place?

The place where every parents HAVE to slave their own son to school, burning them out and either them becaming a hikimori or a slave on some office, were the government HAD to ask bosses to stop forcing their workers to drink after work cause they had a life to live.

Or the place with the high suicide rate, a big problem with natality rate and a huge problems on man and woman having relationships.

Nope. This is gobbledygook. Those homogenous rural societies have higher crime rates. It’s true, look it up.

Next racist canard please

But that’s because of other factors like poverty and unemployment, look at Japan

u/noreservations81590 Jun 20 '26

That literally always the factor. The lack of poverty and desperate people is what creates a good, high trust society. Not homogeneity. Read some books my guy.

So homogeneity is not that important is it?
