I would close the borders, but allow limited immigration with proper vetting. It is the lack of the latter why Europe is in the state it is currently in. I don't have a problem with multiculturalism, but diversity for the sake of diversity is a terrible idea, especially when the ideology of these "refugees" are not compatible with western values, at all. If you want to let them in, then you need to assimilate them, not integrate them. |
Your argument is a sane and rational one. I respect that you are fine with diversity and only criticize it when it has negative effects and when it's implemented for the sake of it (which is very often, and actually is the official doctrine of the state of Sweden - multiculturalism for the sake of it).
What I hate is that all these native cultures around the world, Westerners care a lot about preservation of foreign cultures and argue how it has intrinsic value, how they see the charm and beauty and value of them. They care that they're preserved and being kept untainted by Western culture. But argue the same about Western culture and hell breaks lose. First, many will deny that such a culture even exists (Sweden the mainline is to question whether Swedish culture or Swedes even exists). Second, you're labeled as the worst kind of racist if you suggest separation and preservation of white culture. I'm outraged by this hypocricy.
I personally love homogeneous cultures and nations. I think it's beautiful and good in every way. I dislike multicultural societies for many reasons, although some sides are charming and/or beneficial about those too. I have the right to feel this without being attacked or labeled with nasty words.
When I go to Greece I want it to feel Greek with the majority being ethnical Greeks, when I go to Japan, I want it to feel Japanese etc. When I go to Germany I want it to fe... well, I wouldn't go to Germany because to me it doesn't feel like Germany any longer. Same with my own country, it doesn't feel like it used to be so I don't want to be here anymore.
