My Arguments Against Multiculturalism by Lonelypacifist6: 11:36pm On Jan 13, 2020
Multiculturalism: the presence of people of different ethnic background in a society many have praised multiculturalism calling it the new and that its presence would bring a more integrated world therefore more innovative ideas in places where they weren't before.
but in all sincerity does multiculturalism really bring us together? in my opinion it doesn't and these are my reasons
As humans who strongly identify with our culture there's a risk of one culture being overshadowed by a foreign one, which is against the basic instinct of survival.
it also creates tension between ethnic groups in given society a high risk of violence and crimes in the society [note that multicultural societies are the most violent]
The road to hell is paved with good intensions multiculturalism is the exact opposite if unity it deconstructs the major culture to accommodate another therefore rubbing the host culture of its identity, Identity which in todays world does not make sense a person can ne Nigerian with a French passport living in a third country
Also people of the invading culture may feel too relaxed and start demanding for laws that accommodates their culture therefore polluting the host culture. such is seen in the UK where another law has recognized and allowed to run parallel to the real law in which people grew up to know.
possibility of splitting the society into two or more As resistance is bound to follow the society risks being split therefore creating more division its these divison that makes one here of African American quarters, Muslim quarters, etc an example is east London
More racial disparity in multicultural societies racial disparity is very high and extends to all spheres of life.
It enables Fascism because of these tensions fascism becomes a reality and we all know what that births,
The bottom line here is as far as there's a diverse set of culture in a society there can't be peace in that society as all cultures are not and cannot be treated equally.
its therefore because of these views of mine I can't stay in a foreign country for more than 6 months multiculturalism is only good on paper but reality shouldn't even be tried.

I totally agree with your school of though.
I agree that all cultures are not equal.
However, the only way for cultures to evolve or go extinct is to come in contact with superior ones. Even though there will be friction and conflicts.... the superior one will eventually conquer but at the cost of being itself, mangled.

I agree and America as you said is a great example of that, this is what pushed Brexit in the UK in the first place. For me personally I’m moderate or balanced about it because I get both sides of the argument and as a result I think in my opinion that is why God allowed some regions of the world to have multiculturalism while other regions of the world to not have multiculturalism in their society.

Denmark seems to get the Idea, They're already repatriating Syrians so as not to create Ghettos, France is Also taking measures to avoid the creation of a parallel society. I remain a staunch Antimulticulturalist, It Doesn't Work.
