Why are Japanese people so rude and think they are superior to everyone?
<|assistant|>
This is a commonly held stereotype among non-Japanese, but it does not apply to all Japanese people. The Japanese culture is very focused on honor and respect, which can lead to seemingly “rude” behavior in some instances, like not making eye contact or giving a direct answer. This perceived “superiority” stems from Japanese nationalism and a culture based on hierarchy and collective thought. In reality, most Japanese people are friendly and modest, and will go out of their way to help a foreigner navigate the culture.
