Multicultural CITIES are vastly superior in every way to homogeneous cities. Multicultural cities are SIGNIFICANTLY richer, smarter, etc. It's pretty obvious why that's the case: multiculturalism represents evolution and survival whereas homogeneity represents stasis and the inability to adapt to the world. That's why the Amish, native tribes in Brazil, etc. still don't have electricity.

Having said that, I can't say the same thing about countries. Some countries like Japan are incredibly successful. On the other hand, a country like Switzerland has 4 national languages and is wildly successful. Really, I think you need to strike a balance in terms of a strong identity that unites everyone and multiculturalism. In America, our identity is that we're number 1, end of story. I think we can all agree that it's better to be black in America than to be anyone else in another country.

Not really.

I would rather be white and be anywhere on earth than to be black and American.

America had controlled immigration not massive amounts of illegals. Also, they either assimilated into the current culture (adopting the holidays, religion and language of the US), or they had the option to move out to the prairie and live apart from everyone.

Today is a different situation. There is now a current established culture and the immigrants are not assimilating into it.

That's because you have less intellect than a black person.

Lol I hurt your feelings.

We're... off to see the wizard, the wonderful wizard of OZ.

Must be nice to live in a fantasy world.

That is a statistical impossibility.

This is from 3 years ago:
https://www.breitbart.com/europe/2019/12/07/migrants-account-for-nearly-half-of-rapists-in-italy/

But thanks to the Italian government that hates Italians (sound familiar?),
that is now officially over 50%.

Thanks multiculturalism, youer' the best.

According to the most recent census bureau statistics, whites only make up 60.1% of the US. Hispanic/Latino make up 18.5%, blacks make up 13.4%, Asians 5.9%. If you were to look at the first number in the census data you'd see whites are 76.3%, and think I'm wrong, but nope, that number includes... Well, here's what it says:

"White. A person having origins in any of the original peoples of Europe, the Middle East, or North Africa. It includes people who indicate their race as "White" or report entries such as Irish, German, Italian, Lebanese, Arab, Moroccan, or Caucasian."

So, they're lumping arabs in as white, when a great many of them are more of a brown. Further, they also somehow lump hispanic/latino in with "white only", which is hilarious, meaning you have to go to "White alone, not Hispanic or Latino".

Now, for them to be lumping anyone who looks white with a bunch of people who look brown with backgrounds and cultures from all over the Americas, and Europe, the middle east and... Morocco? would appear to be an attempt to hide just how very multicultural the US is.

Attempting to claim Singapore is or has anything like it is slightly delusional. Attempting to claim any nation in Europe, or even the whole of Europe has anything like it is delusional. Whether you want diversity of skin tone or cultural background, we've got it in spades. Now diversity of thought seems to be a slightly different question, as we continue to use the public square (social media) to clamp down on freedom of speech and opinion. But hey, 2 out of 3 ain't bad, right?

Well, his idea is Singapore is China because we are " 75%" Chinese. But that is not necessarily true.
Even within Chinese we are of different ethnicity. But we lump it all together because of our skin tone and color.
If this was 50 to 60 years back it might be more obvious.

Even then when you look at Koreans and Japanese ( to a certain manner ) they still look "Chinese" or should I say East Asian. Which a lot of people in the West might not be able to differentiate.
I call myself Chinese but even then my ancestry is around the Manchuria Korean region, we do look slightly different from proper Han Chinese.

Further more due to China's influence the entire area have very similar surnames , the only difference are the Japanese who do not. Even the Chinese Muslims have Chinese " Surnames " this is due probably 700 to 800 years of integration.
And there is also the Chinese Kaifeng Jews who are basically Jews but look exactly like Chinese.

So you have to be specific on what diversity is , are you Anglo Saxon White, Slav etc etc or what ? How do you define diversity.
The purpose of this thread is whether diversity and multiculturalism is successful and my take is , very few countries made it so and that is true especially for larger countries because it is difficult to help integrate and assimilate migrants successfully.
