Diversity is our strength.

The problem isn’t diversity it’s what kind of diversity. For instance, Italian and Irish immigrants when they came were different in some ways to the WASPs that came before, but had certain fundamental values that still matched our society. The “migrants” we have now have none of that. Which is why my biggest issue with immigration isn’t the Mexicans, but the Indians, Muslims and chicoms coming across our southern border. Don’t get me wrong. All illegals need to go, but the biggest problem aren’t the Hispanic Catholics it’s the Muslims and communists

It only works if everyone thinks that, but this is not the case.

They also fully bought into assimilating into an American.

It's all about math. Immigration worked when the numbers were small enough to make assimilation work. When a country doesn't limit numbers you get the same problems a bunch of countries are having right now.

America is the most diverse country in the world, and it’s also the most powerful and productive. You can’t hold the opinion that America is the greatest nation on earth while simultaneously insisting that its demographic makeup has nothing to do with that success or that it's a negative.

If diversity didn’t matter, the many homogenous white nations across the globe would outperform the United States by a mile.

They don’t.

Whatever America is, diversity is part of the formula.

To deny that is to deny reality.

Correlation does not imply causation’ is a cute slogan, but it doesn’t rescue the argument.

I’m not claiming diversity causes American strength in a vacuum. I’m pointing out that you can’t call America ‘the greatest country on earth’ and then pretend its demographic makeup plays no role in that outcome.

That’s not correlation---that’s basic logic.

If homogeneity were the magic ingredient, the dozens of non-diverse nations across the world would outperform the United States. They don’t.

So either America’s greatness is tied to the mix of people who built it, or you’re arguing that greatness appears out of thin air.

Pick one.

It’s a huge political lie

Diversity is not a strength in every situation. It’s actually harmful in many ways.

This.

My grand parents came here from Sicily, Greece and Scotland through the late 1700's and early 1800's and they didn't come here to bring their culture or country to America. They refused to call themselves Italian-Americans, Scot-Americans or Greek-Americans. They wanted to be Americans. They kept some of their traditions in their homes but largely adapted American life styles and opened Americans businesses. They welcomed and sought out business and personal interactions with Americans and desperately tried to not isolate themselves into their own communities (though sometimes it happened and was necessary due to some hostilities against them - but they never stopped trying to be Americans first even if some native born Americans didn't want to accept them)

The filth coming into the country does into want any of that. They want to make America change and conform to their way of life and this country is idiots if they continue to accept this in the name of diversity.
