1. We’re having a major disaster with rising prices right now.

2. I am in the 70%…

4. Yes, we 80% people in Japan believe that every year.

5. In the land of the rising sun; earthquakes, volcanos, tsunmais, typhoons, landslides, heatwaves etc. A major disaster is never far away.

   So the 80% of people are most likely correct.

6. The Nankai trough is pressed for a megathrust quake (7.0+ magnitude minimum) in the next 50-100 years (happens once every 90-200 years, last one was 1944) This isn’t a “will it wont it” sorta thing, this is going to happen, unavoidable, and we know it’s going to happen.

7. And what are those 80% doing to prepare for it?

8. well there is a whole environmental disaster going on right now, just not in jp, but it will affect the world

9. As do I, but the “disaster” in question isn’t an earthquake or Mt Fuji, it’s economic collapse due to their inability to adapt to a 40+ year development of declining birthrates combined with mass surveillance dystopia thanks to Palantir.

10. Does the declining birth rate not count?

11. I mean yes? We are always waiting for the next one. Right now we are stacked on 2 known major ones occurring in our lifetime. Nankai and Fuji

    Kyushu had like 2 decent sized volcanic eruptions last year back to back as well

    And those are just natural disasters…

12. Not a surprise, Japanese are waiting for the “big one” that’s way overdue now.

13. They should be more worried about their population decling and birthrate imo

14. With all of this conversation about a big one coming, can people chime in on what they’re doing to prepare?

15. 80% probably believe in ghosts and a correlation between bloodtype and personality, too. How is this news?

16. Yeah an economic disaster

17. Rising sea levels. Land erosion. Earthquakes.

    It’s the perfect time to treat refugees and immigrants like crap in preparation for future migrations.

18. That number is surprisingly low.

19. I bet the oil shortage in 8 months time has to do something with it 🛢️🛢️🛢️

20. Living on literal fault lines tends to make you a realist about these things.

21. Well the so-called “big one” is definitely coming.

22. And it’ll be Takaichi that brings it on.

23. That’s just the science of earthquake prediction. The remaining 20% are delusional.

24. Fuji gonna blow soon.

25. I am the 80% of Japanese people, this is true 🗾
