A Reddit thread on the subreddit r/BeAmazed discusses the perceived respectfulness of Japanese people, specifically how construction workers pause their work when pedestrians are nearby. While some users agree this behavior is common in other countries, others criticize the thread for romanticizing Japan and ignoring problematic aspects of its culture, such as xenophobia and its history of whaling. The thread evolves into a debate about whether Japan is truly exceptional or if its purported respectfulness is a common courtesy found in many societies.
