Japanese Homeless Camp, Complete With Solar Panel

If it’s that awesome why is the guy still homeless?

I don’t know if I would consider him homeless if he has been living in the same structure for years. This is definitely challenging my definition of being homeless.

“The Japanese are just better than the rest of us.”

LOL – that’s funny.

Since we’re making wide spread generalizations – here’s my take.

The Japanese are emotionally repressed xenophobic sheeple that couldn’t create/invent their way out of a wet paper bag.

Since I several Japanese scientists as friends, you can only imagine how interesting our diner parties usually are.

Is that the toilet paper holder over the TV? I think I see how that could come in handy…

I have to agree with the other people. This man is not really homeless. He just lives in a tent, not homeless.

Very neat! Elegant use of space. Contrast that with American FEMA trailers, ha!

As far as the Japanese being better.. well of course the author just wanted a ‘sting’ to get our attention.

i want one. i wont ever have to travel to work again. and least it works during floods.

I prefer to think that the Japanese are a powerful creative civilization that experienced the most rapid and deep modernization in history, though tragically, like almost everyone else, they did so on the backs of other people to lower their costs at home. Also, like everyone else, they are “creative” by building extensively on the backs of other great civilizations. And as to their “superiority” at schools – if you understand the differences in their education system from ours (for instance our tendency to allow far more egalitarian access to standardized testing and higher education), well, let’s just say we’re all human and roughly equal given similar institutional and structural conditions. But Japanese robots look cooler than American robots. Of course OURS actually kill people. Da da da dum.

“ethnically homogenous”
interesting ideology you’ve got going on there.

note : here in Europe we have been sleeping with strangers for centuries, it’s worked out fine for us.
BTW: In case you don’t know, Europe is that country in France, near Australia.

this works and would be cheep and easy,,
THIS WILL NOT BE ALLOWED BY A GOV TO HAPPEN!

nailing them together with 2×4′s and

PsychoBob speaks the truth. People believe that multiculturalism being a positive thing is some kind of absolute universal truth. Anyone who shows dissent from this default position, even if based on Enlightenment Principles, is immediately cast as some kind of strange extremist.

Except the funny thing is…a vast tract of people have these thoughts in private, they just don’t want to articulate them in public for fear of the Intelligentsia’s reaction. A group who espouse multiculturalism not due to any honest conscious belief in it as an ideology as an end in itself, but because their default mode is to believe society always needs to be in a state of flux.

In an age of mass deceit, speaking honestly is a revolutionary act.

JohnDoe. PsychoBob speaks the truth? Puh-lease. It doesn’t matter if “People believe that multiculturalism being a positive thing is some kind of absolute universal truth” or not, because the continued progression of multiculturalism is an absolute universal FACT. And “anyone who shows dissent from this default position” frankly, is generating a discussion on how to change yesterday’s weather, which is what causes “the Intelligentsia’s reaction”. The vast tract of people who have these thoughts, would be wise to keep them private, because it makes them sound antiquated and unaware of what is going on in the world. I am not “espousing” multiculturalism due to any conscious or unconscious belief. I am accepting is as a reality. This ship has sailed and has been sailing since, well the beginning of people and culture. It is not a my “default mode” to believe society always needs to be in a state of flux. It is simply a “absolute universal” FACT that society always IS in a state of flux. Matter of fact, it is my understanding that EVERYTHING – EVERYWHERE – is ALWAYS – in a state of flux. You might want to get with the program because multiculturalism, is like a snowball it the way that it cant be stopped. Reality is not “mass deceit”. And speaking honestly is not a revolutionary act. I speak honestly every time I say my name. Speaking your mind, when your beliefs differ from the majority CAN be revolutionary, but not when your beliefs are, well ridiculous. Not when the majority is ON the ship and it’s out of view, and you’re idea is to try to keep it from leaving.
