Of course still not as bad as the US, but I don’t it is because of religion, it is more because of the two party system. Look at Singapore 18% Christians and they don’t have that many problems.
In the end I believe most problems in all countries are because of human nature, not religion. Religion is just one of the excuses they use for the horrible things they commit.
Yes the US need to get rid of the two party system. These years it is basically choosing who is less horrible than electing a good president. Both parties are corrupt. Japan also need to fix their laws they are vey misogynistic and racist, they also need to fix the work culture. No one in japan is having kids due their toxic work culture.
Japan really knows how to do PR, they make people think they are great, when in reality for many people Japan is an awful place to live in. Tourist is fine, but living there is horrible from what I heard.
Although Japanese rulers haven’t always been very peaceful, their culture is known for being caring and respectful towards others:

I am aware, but the difference in people’s view of Japanese people and people from US is astounding.
Agree with you and comment above, I don’t believe there is causation. Two system is surely not helping to make US peaceful.
