And I also didn't write anywhere that Obama did everything right and Trump does everything wrong. And I didn't write that because it's not true. But I am pretty sure if the cages would have been made public under Obama like they have been made public under Trump that Obama would have done something to make the situation better for the children. Because anybody with at least a little humanity inside would do that... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I said I don't know of any studies. Your reply gives the impression that one exists. Show me!!!. Please list those studies of how China, Japan, and India grew their economies on the back of their liberal embrace of multiculturalism and diversity. The USA is multicultural and diverse but if anything, those factors inhibit the USA not enhance it. Our racial, ethnic, religious, and political diversities are what drive people in the USA to each others throats. I challenge you, name one, just one study in history where it is shown multi-multiculturalism and diversity lifted it up from poverty to become a world power. PS Here is more on who built the cages.

I said I DON'T KNOW OF ONE STUDY that demonstrates the causation between multiculturalism/diversity and how it positively influenced society. You obviously feel differently that there are studies showing that multiculturalism is the driving force leaping mankind to new heights. Stop the BS and show me that study. I would be particularly interested in the statistics on China, India, and Japan. From just my "empirical" observation those three are 3 of the top 5 countries in the world and I will be interested in how they seem to have lifted themselves up with what appears to be minimal embracement of the liberal clap trap. There appears to be several pieces that run counter to your "surely know" bias.https://archive.boston.com/news/globe/ideas/articles/2007/08/05/the_downside_of_diversity/http://www.dominionpaper.ca/features/2004/11/06/multicultu.htmlhttp://aom.org/News/Press-Releases/Diversity-downside--conflict-between-co-workers-of-different-cultures-plays-havoc-with-creativity-of--those-around-them,-new-research-finds.aspx Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sujo Posted September 1, 2019 Share Posted September 1, 2019 I love it. In oz the vietnamese all congregated in one community. So did the chinese. Lively vibrant communities. Now in malaysia and love it. Malay muslims, indian hindus, chinese christians etc. love the mix, the culture, the food. but i dont mix with my own western people tho. They tend to think integration is for others to do but not themselves. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jingthing Posted September 1, 2019 Share Posted September 1, 2019 In my opinion the Grand experiment that is the USA, and has embraced "multiculturalism" Doesn't seem to be working now. A large percentage don't bother to integrate or assimilate.Huh?If everyone totally assimilated it wouldn't be multiculturalism.

daveAustin Posted September 1, 2019 Share Posted September 1, 2019 Been said; only good if peoples are interested in mingling and pulling in the general direction of host populace. What we see in the UK - and other net contributors on the EU - is a massive influx of peoples that seem to only be interested in their way of life, not integrating and/or sending monies to their real home. Those that do mix are dwarfed by those that have no interest. The EU's open door policy is only really viable when it is a two-way street between similar nation status'... when poor countries enter the mix, it is self-absorbed one-way traffic resulting in little harmony and dilution of host culture. This is especially noticeable when one has spent time away. Ergo, Brexit would not be a thing had the EU not expanded. Tl;DR: beneficial in small numbers when immigrants respect the host and way of life, not beneficial when large numbers have no intention of integrating.

In London you hardly hear English spoken in the high streets and you no longer hear a cockney accent at all unless you're in one of the rapidly disappearing pubs. That's without any wailing from any mosques and it's not multiculturalism. The housing policies of the local councils are based on ethnic cleansing. And it certainly isn't diversity. Different peoples cannot be forced to live together especially not in harmony. It doesn't work anywhere. It's what started the Brexit campaign and serious armed conflicts all over the globe.
