Should multiculturalism be consigned to the rubbish bin?

Question

To reply to a couple of posters - no I see no reason why I shoild live by myself. I am not arguing for segregation which I think is exactly what "multiculturalism" implies. I think we should teach all new arrivals into the country in the English culture and make them sit a test an dkick them out if it they fail. And no I'm not talking about Islam. I mean all cultures in the UK, though I think Islam is probably the most segregatinist religion in the UK now.

Answer 1

yes it should, the only people advocating it and trying to make it happen are people indigenous to the British Isles. Most if not all Immigrants are not interested in becoming multi cultural, apart from one aspect - how to milk the Host nations economy. We have it rammed down our throats by thick headed liberals about how we should be more welcoming and allow integration of immigrants, which we try to do (look at all the multi lingual government leaflets, government funded drop in centres, government funded mosques and temples which are incidentally built in all our neighbourhoods) and they (immigrants) create little fiefdoms, who hate their neighbours, abhor other immigrants and act as breeder environments for terrorists who want to attack us!!. Put it all in the rubbish bin, and stop immigration AND force immigrants to adapt BRITISH culture, not us theirs, its complete madness. Incidentally next time your in Tehran, or India, drop into the local government offices and ask them for funds to create a British Christian Church, and leaflets to publicise it and how about some benefits whilst your and see where it gets you.....

Answer 2

As Americans, we have a long and legendary history of welcoming and assimilating immigrants so, it's a little to late in the game to throw multiculturalism into the rubbish bin. The problem with multiculturalism today is, integration. People move to a host country to live out their lives yet refuse to assimilate. Like refusing to learn the language or obey the laws of there host country. Instead they form groups and try to force their way of life on the host country. Today America has a large influx of illegal immigrant's coming to our country who refuse to assimilate into our society. And others who want special treatment for breaking our law's.
Our system of multiculturalism is broken and needs to be fixed pronto!

Answer 3

I never adopted it in the first place. It is the spawn of unpatriotic left wingers and PC pro European freaks. Patriotism comes from the emotions, it cannot be achieved by the passing of an academic test, it comes from the heart not the intellect. In fact, reducing it to a mere test, actually insults it, because it cannot be encapsulated in that way. Multiculturism actually sends out a message to immigrants, "don't integrate, do your own thing".

Answer 4

Yes

Answer 5

yes, multiculturalism is just as I see it, saying that American culture is not good enough, and that other cultures dont need to Americanize anymore since that might offend some one, so we say ok, how about we adapt to your culture so that it can feel like you never left what ever crappy country u fled from.

Answer 6

I assume were getting at Islam here. If so then i whole heartedly agree. There culture way of life and abominable treatment of women is deplorable.

Answer 7

I was subjected to "anti-racist training" and then within that training castigated for trying to explain how difficult it had been for me to get my passport stamped for more than three days in a country, whose citizens had a right of entry to the UK.
They didn't want me there -so?????
I haven't forgotten how damaging my "anti-racist" training was.

Answer 8

Yes. At least as its come to mean in the last decade

Answer 9

It definitely has problems, but you can find useful information from its advocates, so I say not quite.

Answer 10

Depends on how you define it.
I do not believe it should have any special legal recognition.
