Not at all, you obviously didn't read all of my posts.

England's multicultural experiment is a total failure. The Brits are shitting on themselves right now for what their government caused in the name of diversity. The Muslims have formed parallel societies, and have not assimilated into English culture etc. I am all for different cultures coming to America, but learn the language, get a job and be apart of America.

Having multiple cultures influence your culture isn't multiculturalism. It's what most people think of when they defend multiculturalism. But that's not it.



Right. America isn't a purely multicultural society. We embrace a certain degree of assimilation to American ideals. That's why we're the "melting pot." However, this does not mean that we embrace xenophobia.

Correct. But we have to understand that embracing true multiculturalism like Europe has done combined with a welfare state is a suicidal combination for any nation.

Which means jack squat especially after they gained independence.

What exactly are any shared cultural values between a Muslim immigrant amd modern day England?

Well, England, like America, believes in women's rights, respect for all religions, and separation of church and state. Religious Muslims support the opposite. Their holy book and religious leaders and current theological doctrine teachings are actively against many Western ideals of liberty. This is a no brainer. Why on earth would you want this? The PC and multiculturalalism and fear of offending have trumped all logic.

I was in London about two months ago. Saw a couple shows in the west end. Came out after seeing one and there was a pro Palestine rally. Probably lasted 2 hours. 4 lanes wide. It was crazy

It's no propaganda.

Its not really the left's fault that there is more than one culture. You realize that, right? I'm really sorry you have to deal with people that aren't like you.

In the sf bay, we have tons of Mexicans and Asians. Yes, the first generation ones don't speak much English generally, but most of them try. Their children are American to the point of annoyance. They text, they Facebook, they like the movie Frozen....they use the same slang your kids use.....this is what America was....always...except before the skins were all white, and the languages were either the same or similar. Yeah, people are frickin weird, but they always have been. They're here because America is awesome, and their kids are probably more happy to be here than yours are.

Dude my kid is two. To be grateful to be in America vs the rest of the world is an awful big burden to place on him at this point given that he doesn't even fully comprehend his own mortality (or even the idea that anything exists out of New Orleans, Baton Rouge, Big Bend, or Canada, where we watched frontloaders move snow). Give him a break man!

Wow. That's like so much further back in time, OMG.

pagers


Only three kinds of people ever had pagers. Doctors. Fire fighters. Drug dealers. Its a fact.

I think you are belittling someone who may be in agreement with you. He is suggesting that assimilation is currently happening just as it has in the past with other immigrants.
