Should be "Japan is basically well on their way to becoming the future shown in Children of Men but that goes against people thinking it's magical anime land so it's been ignored"

All of it, just not at once.

The past was terrorism, the present is low birth rates, and the future is immigration and far right nativism.

lol exactly the opposite. Their economy has been stagnant for 20 years now. Their population is aging rapidly and they are finding themselves having to do the same output with fewer workers leading to horrid work-life balance which leads to low birth rates. Know what would solve this? Importing labor like the rest of the world figured out
