White Liberals Have Destroyed the Prospects of US Multiculturalism

Guest Post by Paul Craig Roberts

Ron Unz argues that multiculturalism is working. I fervently hope he is correct, but I doubt it. His example is his high education/high income area of Palo Alto and Silicon Valley, a unique area where people share a professional interest and are judged professionally. See Unz: https://www.unz.com/runz/the-bankruptcy-of-american-white-nationalism/

Multiculturalism did not work in Yugoslavia or in the Austro-Hungarian Empire or for native Americans, and it is not working in the rest of the US as the ongoing riots indicate. Multiculturalism cannot work where there are racial and ethnic conflicts.

Multiculturalism might have worked in America if the emphasis had stayed on assimiliation and had not been intentionally shifted to diversity. I grew up in the South where interaction between blacks and whites on a mutually respectful basis occurred every day. My mother and her black helper, Carrie, worked together. You do not turn your food, children, and access to your home over to people you hate and who hate you.

Dishonest white liberals, as all of them are, counter that household help was “dependency” and an example of blacks being kept in their place by whites. But it was no more dependency than that of white and black wives who worked in the household instead of outside the home or the dependency of the kids who helped on family farms. Feminists learned to mimic the kept-in-place argument with their claim that housewives who produced what economist Gary Becker called “household income” (prepared meals, clean clothes and home, child-raising) were kept in a position of dependency. Somehow feminists thought that being dependent on a paycheck wasn’t dependency.

If the kind of relationship that existed when I was a child had been kept intact, the same process that allowed poor whites to rise into the middle class would have allowed blacks to do the same. The ladders of upward mobility worked.

It was the white liberals who destroyed the prospects of multiculturalism by teaching blacks to hate whites for oppressing them. And it was the global corporations that dismantled the ladders of upward mobility.

Multiculturalism did not work for native Americans. They were too much at one another’s throat to unite against the white immigrant-invaders. Obviously, at first there were only a few white people, and the Indians, as they were called, did not comprehend the threat until it was too late. If they had, each ship that landed would have had its passengers killed by native Americans.

Multiculturalism can work if there are no strains and no animosities, but when strains and animosities are intentionally created, there is no prospect of successful multiculturalism. Antifa, Black Lives Matter, the white liberal media, and the white liberal Democrats and professors are furiously at work making certain that multiculturalism in America fails.

This means, obviously, that the America that they hate will also fail.

I would expect nothing less from a group of sociopaths and psychopaths. The question still remains, what are WE going to do about it?

Waiting to hear Nadler say, ” Multi-culturalism is a myth” .

Maybe I’m missing something here — but just why do we have to become ‘multicultural’? Cui bono?

The United States was formerly called a ‘melting pot’ — with our national motto, ‘e pluribus unum’ approximating that — but for the past 55+ years we’ve become much more akin to a chamber pot.

Not so strangely, this decline in our Nation — its culture, its identity, its values, its entire being — seems to have begun with changes in our immigration laws in the late-1800s and the accelerated decline in the 1965 immigration law changes.

You did’t miss a thing IMO. May I suggest that the article is using the ‘new’ word smithing or politically correct terms when ever and where ever possible. It is part of the new and improved progressive, socialist indoctrination or education as they want us to call it.

I preferred America when it was 90% White.

Ron Unz argues that multiculturalism is working. I fervently hope he is correct, but I doubt it. – Dear PCR, by that statement alone you’ve shown to be ignorant of the facts, as well as aligning with the wrong camp. This can be proven with the slightest amount of research.
Multiculturalism is a weapon that was devised to eliminate the white European race, period. This, along with the promotion of slogans like “diversity is our strength,” is why the white American male has become an endangered species.
The facts show that diversity is not our strength, but another weaponized version of white genocide. You state that
Multiculturalism might have worked in America if the emphasis had stayed on assimiliation and had not been intentionally shifted to diversity. It’s the same pig with a different shade of lipstick smeared on it to make people think it’s something different. This isn’t about assimilation of non-white immigrants, but is about forcing whites to integrate with non-whites, instead of enjoying the fruits of their labor in a nation that was forged by the blood and sweat of our white ancestors.
It’s really about creating a guilt complex in whites and empowering the non-whites to push harder and harder to eventually become dominant over the whites. The real question is who is pushing this agenda that seems to be getting more and more out of control?
The plan that’s being followed is right out of their Protocols of the Learned Elders of Zion. Read it for yourself.
America began as a white Christian nation with a constitution that proclaimed this nation to be a Constitutional Republic. That concept was sustainable only if the original precepts of that ideology was followed and not allowed to be adulterated into something totally unrecognizable like it has morphed into today.
Who were the adulterers? Who promotes bi-racial relationship and bi-racial marriages that result in miscegenation and the loss of that branch of white lineage forever? Who favors illegal immigration and showers them with benefits not available to white families? Who was it that came up with the concept of feminism and turned many loving wives and mothers into howling, man-hating banshees? Who is behind the promotion of homosexuality and transgenderism? How can you be so gullible as to not see the obvious? Or is it that you know very well who the culprits are but refuse to name them, for fear of the Jews? Is that it? You speak of the white liberals, but seem to ignore or gloss over the fact that most of the funding for our destruction comes from Jewish counting houses.
Shame, PCR. You of all people, who have really written some fine articles and have the readership that could actually make a difference in turning the tide that is fast rising to engulf us all, should be telling the truth. It seems that “insouciance” can be a two way street.

Below, African immigrants, parading the flag of the separatist, terrorist organization, The Oromo Liberation Front from Ethiopia, beat on a lone white man in Seattle. As always, these vile savages are real bad asses when they outnumber a white by five or six to one, but are usually pretty gutless in a one on one situation.

Watch and enrich yourself with the splendrous, grandiose wonders of multiculturalism and diversity. It’s our strength, right?

I bet the white kid wears a Black Lives Matters face mask when he’s with his friends.
