They are also mammals, for what it's worth.
But also putting in literally any effort at housing everyone would solve this.

Because the "international community" doesn't have any moral concern for anything, ever, let alone an entire society being strangulated. It's a bunch of generally self-interested (or groups of collectively self interested) states, with some degree of deference to the most powerful and prestigious of states among them. And boy is the US powerful (and, despite some very recent history, prestigious).

Ironically, Tokyo has one of the lowest fertility rates in Japan. It's only still growing because it keeps drawing in basically all of the young people from the countryside.

This was has a lot more to do with imperial domination than capitalism, and framing it as being caused by "capitalist nations" rather than "one specific imperialist warmonger, the invader" is questionable at best.
This is largely, though as you acknowledge not entirely, not a war fought over workers' rights so much as the right of a sovereign people to choose their future.

Yes. In the rather famous case of the American Nazi party (like, the OGs before the GOP took over that status) in the 1970s when they wanted to hold a really in Skokie, a Jewish neighborhood of Chicago, were denied a permit on the basis of obvious harm, sued about it, and they ended up being represented by the ACLU on principle of free demonstration up to the Supreme Court where they won (and in turn the ACLU nearly collapsed from the popular fury at their willingness to do that). The case gained significant national attention and the people of Chicago organized a massive counterprotest to what ended up being a minimal Nazi turnout where they were unequivocally shamed and entirely unable to intimidate the Jewish locals they hated so much.
In short, counterprotests can be an act of solidarity against hatred. They have their time and place.

As if I'm not fucking trying? They first came to power when I was a child, and I've been fighting them my entire adult life. Shut the fuck up about what my responsibility is, I've gone far and above that.

Growing up my parents had a close friend who was fairly wealthy who would bring a couple friends with family to semi-annual vacations, and one time when I was around 15 he brought us to his condo in Naples, Florida. He took us out on his boat into the beautiful mangroves with manatees and fish and birds and all kinds of wildlife, and then we hit the mazes of colossal personal mansions that turned out much larger than the mangroves. And as we boated through that maze and they fawned over how pretty the mansions were, they mentioned that decades ago when they were like 20, the land that all of those mansions and roads stood on was more endless mangroves. All the wildlife I'd just been shown was the last gasp of an incredibly vibrant and rare ecosystem actively being raped by the ultra wealthy, and these dense motherfuckers on the boat didn't see an ounce of the horror of it. That moment probably radicalized me more than almost anything.
Turns out much of Florida is just like that now. The whole state is a fucking tragedy.

Genuinely, what the hell are you doing in this community? I've never read a more snide and condescending derision of an entire field of labor based on an entirely corporatist, anti-worker, grindset worldview on this forum to date. Following this line of thought across our society leads us to an absolute fucking dystopia, and somehow you've not only internalized it and self aggrandize about how you pulled yourself up to the next level of success by your bootstraps, you've went and tried to argue that asinine point in a community focused on strengthening the rights, powers, and well being of the common worker.
Why are you here?

The devil's got plenty of advocates, no need to do it for him.
Children should have the freedom to traverse the world independently (and their parents the freedom to let them) as they're able to do so responsibility. Don't let the carbrain win, this is a reason to change infrastructure and laws for cars, not for children. There's way more than enough "think of the children" alarmist nonsense out there.
