Sikh's are the engine of innovation in India.

America would work if our immigration was based on a merit system with a compatibility scale. What has been done since the 1960's changes in immigration policy is ideological idiocy.

As I stated earlier, the biggest hindrances to multiculturalism working are cultural Marxism (the radical Left) and outright racists (you).

I have never understood this concept. Is there a single example in recorded human civilization of a nation having multiple cultures, and not one dominant culture? (This is not to confuse with countries having smaller subcultures)
What is the explanation for why native citizens would want "multiculturalism" and what are the benefits it provides?
From my perspective, there will always be one dominant culture that wins out and will seek to dominate that culture. The current zeitgeist in America seems to be pushing a very gay, neo-liberal, marxist global culture that despises the traditional American Christian heritage. But there is no way for both of these cultures to coexist with each other.
Sure, the culture of the people who founded each entity tended to be the "dominant" one, but very rarely did they attempt to destroy the cultures of the people that they ruled. As long as they paid their taxes, the "dominant" culture didn't really care what god(s) they worshipped or how they organized their daily lives.

It's been known to weaken society for a long time now.

Lol you think being white is a culture? Slavs, Nords, Iberians. Franks, scots, Irish, Anglo, Welsh, german, Greek, Romani, Dutch. They fought and killed each other for centuries and most certainly don't share the same culture, and yet that war the core of what began the United states, with a large group of Chinese being added later to build the railroad.

Odd fact...Almost all male Sikhs have 'Sikh' as their first or middle name. It's kinda like all the Muslims named Mohammed.

In fact, it’s perfectly possible for peoples from different culture to co-exist in a country. In fact, that’s been the case in the U. S.since the 18th Centuryquote:
Like the French, Germans, Italians, English, etc.?

Yes but years ago, European immigrants weren’t considered “white” by today’s standards, and were hated by many.

Shouldn't you be in the Middle East, islamo-splaining to the victims' families that their loved ones were "taken out by context"....

Yeah, it's Singh. But that sounds so Asian. There's probably a million Asians named Singh Lee.

No one said that cultures that share similar values never war with each other.
Who are you arguing against?

Do you have anything beyond small linguistic differences between regions of a nation during a time when human mobility was extremely limited to show how France was "VERY multi-ethnic and multi-cultural"?

1. Import foreigners with differebt cultures.
2. Tell white people they are stupid, worthless, and racist.
3. Corporations get cheap labor. Progressives get voters.
4. Profit.

Do you have any data that shows, for example, what the population percentage of Rome was at the height of its prosperity?
I hope you're not counting 90% vs 10% of a variety of others as "multi-cultural" or "multi-ethnic".
