Basically when you get a lot of different people toghehter in country, stuff goes haywire, but you can look at modern Ukraine, the Austro-Hungarian empire, the romans, the soviet Union. People fought to the and nail in the turning of the century for the right to form nation states, and that is being taken away from them
China is also one of those countries who has had countless civil wars coz divide, as not all of them are one single group of people, literally lots of different ethnicities there.
We got lots of people from the balkans in my country. Their reason for coming to my country was literally because of the Yugoslavian split and living under the threat of being killed by the opposition be it Croats, Bosnians or Serbs. They dont even like each other today for fuck sake.
@weirdoweirdo Well if multiculturalism can't work, then tell me why isn't my city divided, why wasn't my school divided? If people are mature about it, it can work.
It is because its not really multiculturalism its much more ethnic diversity, to have a culture in a place you need to have a considerable amount of people to form said culture. Instead of foreign people living under one culture you have 2 cultures living in that same place
Either integration or assimilation. Do they all speak English? Do some of them follow some British traditions and so on?
A lot of problems today stem from bad assimilation. Either because the new comers dont want to assimilate or because the country doesn't offer the chance. In my country it's the first. They dont want to assimilate here Thus creating ghettos and people who can't find work and have poor education, living off welfare. The ghettos split them up ans making the migrants only live with other migrants so they dont actually meet a real Swedish person as Swedes move out of these places as fast the migrant population goes above ~30% as it also becomes more unsafe and so on.
@weirdoweirdo Yes, the majority of us speak English. I know kids who can't but that's not they're fault given their circumstances, they're trying to learn.
And yes we integrate to where we feel comfortable. For example, I'm a Muslim and I'm all cool with hanging out with my non-Muslim friends, but if my non-Muslim friends are going to go to a pub and drink some beer then I'm not going to go with them because I don't drink.
And my non-Muslim friends don't hound me for "not integrating" with them simply because I don't drink alcohol. They understand I have my religion and my beliefs, and they respect that.
Thats why it works for you. Because you integrate. That's not the case in Sweden were that effort pretty much went all to shit and now has resulted in pretty much imported crime (Yes official statistics actually support my claim, sadly) and a heavy burden for all government agencies.
It's not that. I don't have anything against their genetic facial features and what not. It's their behavior and history. They are such huge hypocrites. They have the nerve to call out other countries on their bs but when it comes to them they act like they do nothing wrong. They have started so many wars and given countries power where it shouldn't have been given on purpose. They are actually responsible for starting a lot of the wars and even country separations in the middle east. These 3 countries Iraq, syria, and Turkey. Kurdistan should have been a country after the fall of the Ottoman empire. Instead what do they do? They let Turkey keep part of their country which is what you see on the map now and divide the rest of Iraq and Syria, Giving Kurdistan nothing at all. We had to fight for our own region in North Iraq.
Then what they did to the U. S. when they were under their rule. They did everything the British asked them too and they cared so little that they completely ignored the letters from the Americans. I can mention many more wars like the French Revolution, French and Indian War, etc. Then lastly the final nail on the coffin... their attitude. Most people I met that were from the U. K has such snobby attitudes. On top of all of that it doesn't help that the UK has such terrible terrible atrocious weather. You guys might as well never get any sunlight ever cause it's like the same thing.
I can understand your frustration with the British government (s), in the past. And now isn't looking too great now either considering the two candidates for Prime Minister are Boris Johnson and Jeremy Hunt.
But know a lot of the British people, including British white people are not represented by our government. Right now, the government we have in only represents a handful of rich people.
Yes, some British people who happen to be white may have snobbish attitudes. But I have also seen British people of many ethnicities with snobbish attitudes. Not all British white or British ethnic people are snobby like you see, in fact where I'm from pretty much everyone is frustrated with our government.
And I 100% agree with you on Kurdistan. Kurdish people do deserve a Kurdistan and I'm all for Kurdistan! You guys need your own country because that way you can have independence as Kurdish people. After all, we got Pakistan, so I see no reason why you shouldn't have your Kurdistan.
As I said previously many people where I am from in the UK are frustrated with the government and that includes British white people. Our NHS is slowly becoming dismantled, our education system quality is becoming poorer, I could go on forever.
Don't hate on the people for what the government (s) did.

Lol I right, just ask those Bosnians or English speaking Cameroonians how great multicultural societies are!
-_-
So your method to show a multicultural society can work is to redefine multicultural to a synonym of multiracial?
I didn’t grow up a multicultural society. The first time I saw a black person was when I went on the US. But I still respect all human beings.
Yugoslavia and Rwanda were peak multiculturalism
I don't know about those countries allow me to do some research and I'll get back to you.

Scary fact.

I live in the UK though.
Uh yeah I dont blame you. I hate British people with a passion
Umm... I'm British...
Oh sorry u dont hate you but you dont. Look British either. I mean like those Brits who hmare natively British. White and messed up teeth lol
Sorry I'm typing on the phone that's why I made so many grammar typos
Well, it ain't good to hate on people just because of their native background still.
