Pressure from EU & other informal immigration, creates political pressure.
And more countries are going in the opposite direction (getting stricter with requirements) because of increased demand & inability to process so many people. Supply & demand.

I own 2 passports, but they're not that geographically or politically diversified.
The Nomad Capitalist YouTube channel recommends getting a second passport in a country that's not aligned without your first. For example, if your first passport is from a Western country, for your second one you may want to get one from somewhere like Georgia, Singapore or Colombia.
Some European countries outside of the EU, like Serbia and Montenegro, are also highly valued, as the location gives you easy access to all of Europe, but shields you from its leftism / statism, and stupid laws are not enforced so strongly there even if present.

Regardless of insecurity having a second one is just a pretty logical move if you can afford it or have the connections to qualify! Just like in BTC decentralization is fantastic!

It’s almost impossible to become a Japanese citizen unless you are married to someone Japanese.
The only case I know was a basketball player at ucla in 1995. J R Henderson
To comply with Japanese naturalization requirements, Sakuragi taught himself to read, speak and write Japanese at a "rudimentary level". He intended to stay in Japan without intention of returning to live in the U.S.

This is what I've heard as well. But if you are a "liberal" you could marry your way in.
It is an island. Its funny how immigration policies are so divisive. Its almost like monopoly control leads to bad outcomes.

They still have to deal with immigrants, they are just more korean and chinese.
I believe most of them can get visas, but not stay too long.
Someone that is Japanese might know better.
