===================================

In this episode, we dive into a fascinating cultural difference between Japan and America: moral judgment.

We explore why America tends to be a "moralistic" society where people constantly judge whether something is good or bad, right or wrong. Meanwhile, Japan operates more as an "amoral" society where people are generally tolerant of others' choices as long as they're not hurting anyone.

Interestingly, this cultural difference completely flips when it comes to the justice system, and we explore why that might be.

If you're interested in Japanese culture or curious about why Japan seems so tolerant compared to Western countries, this episode offers some unique insights you won't want to miss!
