The big irony is that Japan's systems are so smooth because they don't organise themselves democratically. The west literally can't replicate it because they have no experience implementing a functional compromise. Majority rule means you stop looking for solutions once 51% of people are convinced it's a good idea.
What do you mean? Do you have examples?
very broadly they will try to find a solution that works for everyone. it's why you don't really see large groups, if 1 person doesn't want to get pizza then the group isn't getting pizza. in the west that 1 person is getting a shitty pizza shop salad because they've been out voted.
