I see many people from developed countries (mostly european countries) complaining about immigrants or disliking a heterogenous population. There are still having many nationalist and racist movements nowadays, as in Ukraine, for example, where are many Neo-Nazi parties that have an absurd number of supporters and were the main responsible for their crisis. Greece also has a big Neo-Nazi party (Golden Dawn). The number of right wing parties is increasing in other countries too, such as France, Spain, etc.
What's your thought on that matter? Do you agree or not with multiculturalism and immigration?
The problem with most of these countries (including the U.S.) is that they have various cradle-to-grave policies where they argue that the government's responsibility is to take care of the poor and underprivileged - to be a 'safety net.'
Obviously, when you import a bunch of people from the shit holes of the world and then qualify them for such programs, you simply have a population that starts at the same level of dysfunction that such systems reduce their target populations to (IE - socialism depreciates the value of society and reduces it to a third world shit hole).
By providing for these groups through the ambiguousness of government systems, these people never have to integrate into your society. They never have to learn to work with other people, to share ideas with other people, or to look at the world in any other way than the way they did back when they were living in a shit hole. As such, they tend to take the same ideas that kept a society in a shit hole and try to apply them to countries that are not a shit hole.
The end result is a population that is entirely parasitic that exploits the political system to keep the integrated population subsidizing its existence and cries racism when anyone realizes that it's a purely negative deal.
So, no, once you adopt socialist policies, immigration kills you.
If you don't have socialist policies, immigration doesn't kill you.
Unless those immigrants bring socialist ideas with them and start using political pressure to get them passed.
Multiculturalism works to a point. The problem is that what many people fail to understand is that many cultures include a view of government. If my culture is Islam, then my view of government is essentially Sharia. That is what my culture expresses as right and just.
Sharia does not comply with western values. Therefor, the culture of Islam cannot be permitted within western nations - or at least cannot be allowed to gain any political power. It doesn't matter if that is what these people 'appreciate' - it is incompatible with the way of life of that nation and will destroy that nation if it allowed to take root.
The same goes for the socialist ideas of Europe being communicated to regions of the United States. The culture of Europe largely is that of unconstrained governments that have virtually unlimited power to intervene in any affairs deemed necessary. Governments manage the people.
This is the inverse of the culture in America and how the government and legal structure in America were set up to work (this has since changed, and a lot of people are about to die over the conflict that has grown over it). Even though many of us can trace our roots back to Europe and can even trace our family traditions and social culture back to European roots - the political culture has to be rejected and cannot be tolerated if America is to remain its own nation.
There are certain things about your nation that make it your nation. In the case of America, immigration and multiculturalism are fine up until the point when the structure of government begins to change and empower the various racial and interest groups over each other. The Constitution is supposed to preside over -all- special interests and stand as a common agreement that it is the model we are going to uphold.
When that changes, you no longer have America outside of an ambiguous claim to be American because of where you were born.
All of the individuals who are to be considered able to participate in their government's operations -must- be one with the key points of the culture of that nation. The U.S. has a rather simple unifying cultural point - the Constitution. Anyone who would be willing to sign their name to it, themselves as a legally binding contract can be considered to be a citizen. Compliance with the contract is the defining point of culture for Americans.
If people do not agree to that contract - they shouldn't be allowed to vote. They should be able to own property, own a business, have children, and go about their lives; but only those who agree with the rules of how our government works can participate in the government. Otherwise - it's a lawless government where special interests take priority and we end up killing each other - which is probably within two years from now, likely less.
Europe is a more exclusive club. The reason France is different from Spain and considered its own nation goes back thousands of years over countless wars that established territorial boundaries. In theory - a Constitutional government could work to create a union of the various nations within Europe - but the view of government in Europe dooms that solution to failure. Constitutions that establish limits upon a governing body are meaningless when the people expect and accept a government that can grant itself authority over any situation it sees fit.
Which means that it is even more important for people in Europe to ensure that the people they are letting into their societies are aboard with their ideas.
The reality is that Europe is about to literally explode over the next several years. The muslim populations are only going to get more antagonistic and more accusatory of those around them. This is going to start to become ridiculous, even to the average person. Politicians will try to appease both groups but end up only pissing everyone off. The groups that are saying something about it (various supremacist groups keyed to the themes of each nation they are in) will end up getting more general support because these groups are the only ones appealing to the personal experience of the average person.
The average person isn't (or wasn't) a racist until they are expected to apologize and bend over backwards for a population that shot up an art gallery deemed offensive to a religion.
Now, there are people who will spread both cheeks and ask for it without the lube - Europe has plenty of them, too. Which is why it's going to become such a mess.
So - if by "culture" you mean things like style of dress, food, and family traditions, then - yes, multiculturalism and immigration are fine.
If by "culture" you mean 'ideas of government' and 'purpose of law' - then, no, multiculturalism and immigration will destroy nations.
If you are going to move to France, then you need to learn to be French. If you are going to move to Korea, then you need to learn to be Korean. If you are going to move to Russia, you need to learn to be Russian. - Or, at least how to interface with these groups and become part of their society (even if you preserve your own traditions... and why would you move some place that does not allow you to preserve traditions you are attached to?).
