FUCK OFF YOU PIECE OF SHIT

Assimilation.
Join or die, motherfucker.

Wow thanks for the in depth explanation

advocating that one maintains their own culture while striving at the same time to become an "american"

in america the focus has always been more on "diversity" rather than "multiculturalism"

yeah they only took influences from western society, that's why.

>school shootings
>gay shootings
>9/11
>BUILD THE WALL
>every ethnicity acts different from the rest
>ethnic ghettos everywhere
>Spanish dominating the USA
>high murder rate despite having one of the biggest police forces and the largest economy of the world
it creates a shit load of tension which in your country can only be solved by a literal police state m8

This. The US works so well by making immigrants give up their cultures and languages.

CHI

Yeah these 2bh
People come to America (usually) to be good Americans. "Multiculturalism" isn't really pushed here. There's a difference between being respectful of peoples' backgrounds and cucking yourself into oblivion

More like we integrate parts of their culture into our culture. The Romans understood the value of this 2000 years ago.

US is monocultural you dumbass.

The USA was never multicultural, it always forced Anglicisation upon each new group of migrants from Europe and inevitably stamped out all meaningful expressions of their cultures. They kept their last names, their food, and a bit of music, but eventually they became Anglo in every way that really mattered.

All of this was lost however once mass immigration from Beaner America started in the 60s and Marxists began to consolidate power in academia. Now it's just a fractured, muddled mess of people who don't give a fuck about each other.

Historically the US has never been multicultural, it always stressed assimilation.

We're rich.
The only difference between multiculturalism and diversity is that the latter is too rich to care about their immigrant heritage being melted down. Consumerism heals all wounds as long as you have the dosh.

we are so not multicultural

don't kid yourself

the multicultural rebranding is sapping our national invigoration

The spirit of capitalism, agreement on the value of "freedom" and assimilation

People assimilate into American culture, that is not multiculturalism.

>If multiculturalism doesn't work how do you explain the success of this country
its success is predicated on the fact that there has always been a dominant european culture over all other cultures/people within it

Our mixed population has created so many zesty combinations of flavors though.

>europeans from a cold grey island adopt the traditions of pacific islanders to become surfer dudes on the balmy shores of california
>western and eastern musical traditions meet to form country, blues, jazz and rock
>wonderful melting pots like new york and new orleans exist

God bless the United States of America.

it should not go any other way

I get so disappointed when people (SJWs I guess, I hate using that term) undermine that kind of thing; it's always one culture "stealing" from or "overtaking" another. Not everything is done in malice or hatred. :(

the roman empire was violently torn apart though

There's nothing unique about big cities with lots of different races, pretty much every major city is like this.

Also every country has regional differences, I don't why so many Americans think their unique in this regard.

if american culture is literally individualism, FREEDOM and capitalism, how can immigrants assimilate into the american collective thought if their culture is the negation of it?

A semi-shitty area in LA is like a nice area in Rio. Your point about Spanish speaking is lame because those area have always been Mexican.

I agree. This is the path Ireland has taken with our foreigns. Hopefully the 2nd generation don't turn out to be maniacs.

We are actually way more collectivist and nationalist than most people think, most of us aren't IRL Gordon Geckos.

>A semi-shitty area in LA is like a nice area in Rio.
You sure shown me how right you are with this phrase, omg how could I even doubt the strenght of the american culture

If they had nuclear weapons they'd still be running the world, we're betting that in a reality where meaningful violent opposition results in the destruction of mankind, we won't be violently torn apart.

Something like this. These are Iranians.

We are not multicultural, we are multi-ethnic

because americans, for the most part, know quite little about other countries because not only is their country quite big (both literally and in terms of relevance/population size), but also because they're comparatively far away from almost every country except canada and mexico. they simply don't have to care, so they don't.

there's also the >american education thing, which is somewhat but not wholly accurate for why this is a thing.

also the whole thing with american exceptionalism and the "we are the best" mentality, which is largely due to strong patriotism and the first point i made earlier.

the roof of my mouth hurts lads

This. Multiculturalism is garbage. There is no need to have a schism among your people.

>collectivist
>with no universal healthcare, no free university
>actually supports billionaires fucking you guys over a strong government and regulamentation of the economy

I wouldn't even say multiethnic, just multiracial. All old world ethnicities just blend into "white" "black" and "Asian" groups.

weren't they supposed to be "americans" with other "americans" if this was true? And weren't they supposed to be with other people of other ethnicities if they were integrated?

I don't see any problem here. We have a collectivist mindset and culture, not laws.

>persian shore
kek

Our culture is that you can do whatever the fuck you want if you can afford it.
See: Trump
We offer a protestant work ethic if you need help getting there.

and natives stopped existing altogether.

that's bullshit, individualism is the name of the american game. pulling yourself up by your own bootstraps and making a name for yourself from hard work and not some form of birthright is the core of the american dream.

so you guys are so collectivists that you guys elect only guys that fuck over the things you value the most?

Murica might be an economically successful country but as a society you're a failure, you're literally the most violent developed country in the world

yes exactly, a guy that is a billionaire can literally build a wall, or do everything he wants because he is entitled to do so, because he is better than the rest therefore entitled to do it, because he worked to get there. Even if it this "everything you want" means fucking everyone else to get more power to do even more "everything you want" or even subverting every culture or every collective, family values, the government to get more power towards you. That is why you guys are individualists, because you guys support this thought, meanwhile most catholic countries would support a strong government instead and would limit the power of those individuals

Collectivism =/= welfare niggerdom

Most Anericans are fanatically patriotic. I know even absolute libcucks who hang an American flag in front of their house, family values and our military are practically worshipped, we have a strong sense of group identity. That is NOT individualism.

they fell because of too much integration of bordering cultures

read the decline and fall of the roman empire

>we have a strong sense of group identity

Hence the national health care schemes that have been in place for a century or more.

Building of that wall was already approved by Congress in 06, they just didn't follow up on it for some reason. I have no idea why all of a sudden everyone is chimping out about Trump as if the wall is a completely outrageous and radical idea.

Collectivism =/= Patriotism
m8, collectivism implies in realizing that every individual is equal and therefore entitled to the same things as everyone else. Just like most nordic countries

not saying bad things about Trump m8, he is literally the personification of your culture m8, it was just an example

>collectivism = egalitarianism

Big fucking no.

>90% if not more of the population came from Europe, a place where culture is nearly identical in every country, except for very minor deviances

>Collectivism is the moral stance, political philosophy, ideology, or social outlook that emphasizes the significance of groups—their identities, goals, rights, outcomes, etc.—and tends to analyze issues in those terms. Collectivism is a basic cultural element that exists as the reverse of individualism (in the same way high context culture exists as the reverse of low context culture), and in some cases stresses the priority of group goals over individual goals and the importance of cohesion within social groups (such as an ingroup, in whichever specific context it is defined).

Trump is a literal mid 90s meme coming to life.

Don't get me wrong, I'm actually voting for him, but if anyone told me 5 years ago that Donald fucking Trump will be our president I'd think he's norderlune insane.

Yes and? That doesn't support your position.

col•lec•tiv•ism (kəˈlɛk təˌvJz əm)

n.
the socialist principle of control by the people collectively, or the state, of all means of production or economic activity.

>Collectivism is a basic cultural element that exists as the reverse of individualism

>Collectivism can be divided into horizontal collectivism and vertical collectivism. Horizontal collectivism stresses collective decision-making among relatively equal individuals, and is thus usually based on decentralization. Vertical collectivism is based on hierarchical structures of power and on moral and cultural conformity, and is therefore based on centralization. A cooperative enterprise would be an example of horizontal collectivism, whereas a military hierarchy would be an example of vertical collectivism.

If even your own countrymen don't agree with you, why should we?

American culture is LA/NYC - the rest of it is of little importance.

slavery

Hey, I've been on that bridge. It's a very swanky neighborhood.

Why do third world Brazilians feel need to jump into these types of threads?

because fuck you that's why

Brazil is whiter desu

Not really multicultural.

It's mostly white people. (or was, up until recently)

>all white people have the same culture

Everyone assimilates in Europe just fucking fine.
They speak European languages because of the 3 generation language loss effect.
Most of them lose their religion with time. No one in Europe is Christian or Jewish they just vaguely celebrate holidays and European Muslims don't give a shit anymore than American Muslims. It's not fucking ISIS it's kids smoking weed and listening to pop music the only difference is they're brown.

That is all that Europeans care about. They are so intolerant of difference there's constant meme succession movements everywhere and they spent 1000 years at war until Roosevelt came up with the EU, like a dad telling the kids in the back of the car to stop fucking bickering.

Immigrants to Europe are perfectly assimilated but it doesn't matter. A person who is 100% exactly like you in every way except has darker skin still deserves to die due to the broken European mindset. That's why the US runs the world and not those idiots.

>"Belgian" ""nationals"" keep getting busted for terrorist plots on the regular

grow out of memes already
they are only met with hostility due to the europeans natural xenophobia which is far worse than America's

Last time I checked Americans don't stand in airports holding up "REFUGEES WELCOME" signs.

Seriously fuck off.

I've seen that in Boston
quit lying quit meming

Proof

You're the one lying/memeing

Me too senpai.

Because by the time America became #1 in the world, niggers, women and latinos knew their place.
Now they're presidents and your next one is a old hag the one right afyer will probably be a mexican. USA influence has been falling recently due to China/Russia and will keep decline.

You honestly thought no one ever did this in the US?

I'm not sure if you're aware of this sweetheart but Europe has had a steady influx of immigrants from every asshole of the world for the past decade. They have a right to be xenophobic when thousands and thousands of refugees who are used to living in medieval times come and demand they be catered to. You're too retarded to realize it's not a meme

Simple, it has the highest quantity of white people.
Multiculturalism is just what people point to because it's slightly more acceptable than the race problem.

Good old days America already collapsed.

Woooww, Detroit, just Woooowwww 69% below average.

>Everyone assimilates in Europe just fucking fine.
Yeah, I guess our 60-70 % unemployment rates among North Africans and Middle Easterns is "fucking fine" assimilation

I've never seen it explained so well

> Europe has had a steady influx of immigrants from every asshole of the world for the past decade.
Maybe they shouldn't have fucked up those parts of the world then :^)
>They have a right to be xenophobic when thousands and thousands of refugees who are used to living in medieval times
Nice meme
>come and demand they be catered to.
nice meme
kids speak German/Dutch/Swedish and wear jeans and drink coke and live like Europeans
>You're too retarded to realize it's not a meme
No you just believe fake photoshopped bullshit made for underage kids on pol
See a Scot will scream at the top of his lungs that he's "not British"
Catalans will scream they're "not Spanish"
And that Balkanized mindset is why they will never believe brown people have "assimilated" well enough because in Europe if you're not from the same fucking city you are unacceptable
65% white America owns the entire fucking globe, you have no point

You literally have no-go zones for whites, race riots and niggers getting shot by the police who din du nuffin.

>You literally have no-go zones for whites,
No we don't
>race riots
Not for 20 years we haven't
>and niggers getting shot by the police who din du nuffin.
same as your country

>Not for 20 years we haven't

You are too retarded to even argue with. Your response to everything I just said was "hurr nice meme". I hope to god you're just being troll

I am Greek.

>come and demand they be catered to
We just had this. Refugees refused to get off from a bus as a protest because they were moved to a smaller city, and instead of giving them money for food, they were to be catered by a catering service. Earlier this year they protested having to eat porridge:D Only a minority of our immigrants are from Syria, though.

*protested against

Diversity is okay. Fuck off with that multiculturalism stuff though
