re: True or False: What we’re seeing is the inevitable result of multiculturalism

A lack of a desire for assimilation leads to easy exploitation later on by the Marxists. But the side-by-side cultures isn’t an inherent problem that should keep our country from succeeding.

I personally think it's tricky, because the balance is one where there are core tenets of American life that HAVE to be adopted by immigrants (language, handful of key ideals, pride, productivity), but I think at some point the concept of the melting pot plays into the hands of our enemies (because the promotion will be to water down our systems/values into others rather than vice versa).

Ideally, true pluralism would involve retention of some very visible/outward cultural markers, but nonetheless keeping us pulling in the same direction on bigger items (rule of law, importance of religion, economic liberty, national pride, etc.)
