In the modern world, Ireland would become like Haiti (who were also pretty insular, until recent when the storm hit and they didnt have the infrastructure to cope and thus needed the aid of other nations) if we were insular. Without multinational companies Ireland would be a forgotten satellite state.

What kills me is that it's you who will be the primary loser in this new society but the wool has been pulled over your eyes. The future is going to be very different than what you imagine it to be. You will wake up when reality hits you in the face down the line but it will by then be too late unfortunately.

Franz Von Peppercorn wrote: » The op has basically confused multi culturalism in one country with openness to trade and/or new ideas. Which isn’t the same thing at all. Japan is now open to western ideas, as well as its own, but it’s not multicultural. Nor is a multi cultural state the same as a multi ethnic or pluralistic state. The US never described itself as multi cultural until revent decades, though it was always a nation of immigrants. It instead promoted the idea of a melting pot, e pluribus unum. Now it’s e pluribus multis. Obviously Europe needs immigrants, it also has a right as a (trigger alert) great and ancient civilisation to choose who those immigrants are and to demand that the immigrants integrate into this great and ancient civilisation. Instead, and this isn’t the fault of the immigrants, the demand is often to replace the existing with the new, to take down the statues that have the audacity to have been white in a country that was 100% white, to “decolonise” English literature (absurdly more common in England) , to scorn or remove from sight paintings or photos of white men — including soldiers, to demand an end to white supremacism in countries that have been white for all history. Whatever that means. That is I think what understandably gets people's back up.

I know you're already thinking about white genocide, catholic oppression and that liberal arts girl that rejected you for being rough around the edges. But hear me out, because im about to tell you why multiculturalism is good. The one reason: It's the default state of humanity.You ever wonder why those forgotten tribes like in the sentinel islands is rare and in many ways primitive? Because they are not like us. The rest of the world has managed to collectively cooperate. One guy comes up with a great idea and someone else from another country copies it and improves it. Thats multiculturalism. I made this thread as a response to the obvious xenophobic hatemongering in other posts. Like some scumbag throwing acid to a child's face, somehow implicates every immigrant and they should be put under a proverbial spotlight. Its tenuous logic at any point of view. Right now I want you to imagine if Ireland became your insular and backwards utopia. Forget about the Wakanda syndrome (That if a nation somehow closes its borders and focuses on itself it will become advanced) and look at case studies. The empire Japan is the poster boy for the self-serving xenophobic nation state. And it was 200 years behind until it stopped the blockade then it entered modernity. If Ireland had no multiculturalism (which includes the Catholic church) it would literally be a depressing backwater even moreso than it was for hundreds of years. Everything you ever owned, knew and f*cked is influenced by foreign people.That doesn't mean genocide, asmuch as self-victimizing citizens in the top 10 quality of life in the world would have you think. It simply means acknowledging that Ireland and multiculturalism are deeply intertwined, even back to the building of 'native' structures (which were built by people that came from spain, scandinavia and france). Ireland's golden days when it was all 'native' never existed. In fact, those days were among the most depressing and oppressive in history that the population never recovered. Blighted by a food that came from Peru.
The term multiculturalism has a range of meanings within the contexts of sociology, of political philosophy, and of colloquial use. In sociology and in everyday usage, it is a synonym for "ethnic pluralism", with the two terms often used interchangeably, for example, a cultural pluralism in which various ethnic groups collaborate and enter into a dialogue with one another without having to sacrifice their particular identities. It can describe a mixed ethnic community area where multiple cultural traditions exist (such as New York City) or a single country within which they do (such as Switzerland, Belgium or Russia). Groups associated with an aboriginal or autochthonous ethnic group and foreigner ethnic groups are often the focus. In reference to sociology, multiculturalism is the end-state of either a natural or artificial process (for example: legally-controlled immigration) and occurs on either a large national scale or on a smaller scale within a nation's communities. On a smaller scale this can occur artificially when a jurisdiction is established or expanded by amalgamating areas with two or more different cultures (e.g. French Canada and English Canada). On a large scale, it can occur as a result of either legal or illegal migration to and from different jurisdictions around the world (for example, Anglo-Saxon settlement of Britain by Angles, Saxons and Jutes in the 5th century or the colonization of the Americas by Europeans, Africans and Asians since the 16th century). Multiculturalism as a political philosophy involves ideologies and policies which vary widely.

As to the definition you gave - I believe multiculturalism has a much wider meaning in this discussion than which you give it credit tbh. Now I know I'm being lazy but here is Wikipedia for a basic primer to start. Now explain why if multiculturalism is such a natural state of affairs as you have claimed, does Europe and the US remain the largest immigration destinations worldwide. Surely we should be supporting the idea of diverse immigration as a means to global multiculturalism to all nations and not just western ones? What happens when the majority of the worlds countries do not support such ideas?
