The Romans were done for once they opened the gate to the Visigoths.

The Western Empire, maybe, but Romans kept going in the East for quite a while longer in a multicultural society.

And what about the hundreds of years prior? You have a very limited definition of multicultural if you're not saying the Roman Republic, prior to empire, was not multicultural. As the imperial expansion continued, you had all sorts of people and cultures brought into the empire.

Multiculturalism is not the problem. All we have to do is to make sure that anyone who comes here does so legally.

How did black, brown, or poor people have the power to push it?

I doubt you're talking about Asians or Natives.

That's not me being a douchebag at all.

I'm pretty sure I know which group he's referencing and not calling them white is...a choice.

Now me pointing out the hypocrisy of the J6 riot fans? I'm being kind of a douche there.

Akkad(from Lotus Eaters on YT) said it perfectly. They wave the Mexican flag(and others), not because they love the land of Mexico, but because Mexico is wherever Mexicans are. They dont see themselves as American. They see themselves as a colony of another people here. Its them vs us.

The melting pot only referred to white Europeans.

bullshite. Our success didn’t come from that multicultural horse shite, we were weakened from it. America peaked in culture and wealth in the 1950’s and at that point we were 90% a white nation.

The passing of the 1965 Hart Cellar Act was what initiated the countdown of this ant-white time bomb we’re currently witnessing.

In the 1950s post ww2 America was the only major country unaffected. Europe and Asia were piles of rubble and US manufacturing was the only solution to rebuilding. A man could graduate high school and go to work at the local Ford dealer, buy a house and have a wife at home to raise their children. There is no reasonable person who thinks today is better

Those are economic issues that would have been inevitable that have nothing to do with multiculturalism though.

But now that all of you geniuses have established that the 1950s were the peak of America would you like to bring back the tax brackets from that time?

First of all, the US has always been multicultural, it's made up all sorts of European cultures from the git go as well as Indians and blacks.


The U.S. was once a society where people immigrated and became “Americans.” It was a melting pot of people though of different backgrounds and beliefs held the same primary goal. Sure they held onto their “roots” but they also were proud and eager to become “Americans.”. They learned the language, obeyed the laws, contributed to society. They loved this country.
That was and is NOT multiculturalism. It’s a “melting
pot society.”
Multicultural society is clusters of sub-societies existing together but are wholly separate. They each speak their own native language, follow only its customs. respect only their culture and have no respect for broader society including its laws.

And most immigrants do speak English so we're still more of a melting pot currently

The easiest way to tell the hombres coming over the border have no intention of assimilating… Mexican Independence Day

If you are ever in a city with a big Mexican population on that day. Be prepared for traffic

They celebrate that shite harder than the 4th of July

Send them back

They don’t and it’s not a melting pot.

The majority of immigrants do speak English. I swear some of you have never left your hometown.

“Communist” and “socialist” have lost
Their meaning on this board. Most posters know nothing about either…

I'd like someone to answer my question on tax brackets. Multiple people here claim that the country peaked in the 50s. Taxes are a pretty important issue. So why not revisit the tax structure of that time since it was peak America?

I’ve read that when the Europeans got here they tried to convert people to their religion

So should we revisit the tax policies of the 1950s?

Must be off your meds. You actually think that most of todays communist are that driven in beliefs ? Most of them want government to give them what they want and actually have no clue or desire to be for the state. Something akin to I want what I want or I’m gonna scream and lay on the floor till I get my way. Now don’t get me wrong as I also suspect that they want it without working and believe they are entitled to it unlike a real communist but again like spoiled brats. Actually that would now be considered a Democrat right

It kind of helped that we were largely unscathed from the effects of WWII.

I will agree with you on Hart-Celler though.
