@diresock @jetzkrieg overpopulation is a problem not for the reasons of pure physical space, but I think particularly when it comes to a shit ton of people living way too close to each other. A city could be overpopulated easily, but the world is certainly not.
@diresock @jetzkrieg the Japanese do it better because they're Japanese lmao
The effect population density has on culture is the biggest issue humanity needs to tackle this century in my opinion.
The Japs are doing OK in Tokyo... at least it seems that way compared to other large cities, and as an outsider looking in.
Objectively better than any US or UK city.
Expanding infrastructure further out, internet, and high speed rail, especially, will likely be part of the solution, but who knows.
