do monocultural societies work?

CoolHat · 22-09-2011 09:26PM

No.
Because its people we are talking about. Lets just say we were all one colour. We'd still have people hating others. groups formed. One class wouldnt like the other. etc.

It depends, whether or not other cultures expect to operate/exist outisde the law of the host country.
Some of the opposition to multiculturalism seems to be along the lines oh "omg someone looks different believes in different stuff to me".
Anyway it wasn't that long ago that Nick Griffin types wouldn't have liked paddy culture all that much.

Well the USA has 'worked', whatever that means, for quite a long time and that's pretty much the definition of a multi-cultural society.
So, in-so-far as a nebulous question like this can actually be definitively answered, i'd go for yes.
And, before anyone mentions it, the citizenship test, does not counter the various ways in which the US is clearly a multicultural country.

Not gonna be arsed watching the video, but no multiculturalism doesn't work in its current form. It doesn't promote social inclusion. Those who come here and do best are those who include and immerse themselves in the society that already exists, rather than relying on a government model to make it work for them. If it was allowed to happen naturally and with as little interference as possible then it would be much better.

That lady from the Anti Racism network is a clown

Fascist, Fascist, Fascist she cries

Put out a press release, slams Nick Griffin and then when she is invited to debate with him she won't do it

Why not says the radio show host? Why are you even on this radio show so if you won't debate?

Oh because of he a facist and people died in Norway she says

The man is allowed to talk but some want to shut him up but are afraid to debate with him

It can only work if people get it. England is a good example. So many English patriots now can't even put up the St George flag because they are afraid of being branded a racist. Of course which we know many black people and Sikhs are very proud to be British and very patriotic. The problem is not enough people are.

What pisses me off almost as much is people who think they can reap all the rewards of a democratic state but think they should be able to stop others from speaking their mind.

If Nick Griffin wants to talk, let him. Letting him talk is the rope he needs to hang himself anyway (even though he has hung himself many many times in the past)

mikemac · 22-09-2011 10:02PM

I learned very little from that

The Pakistani man who called in nearly got more time then Nick Griffin did
Not realy an interview at all. It wasn't a shouting match and it wasn't a debate either

Not sure what I would call it

This is not an argument against multiculturalism, it's an argument against any people living together at all and says multiculturalism is as good or bad as anything else.

Anyway, Interculturalism is where it's at.
