The fact remains that the myth of "multiculturalism" is as dangerous as the myth of the "Aryan Race" ... I don't see where you have presented any reason for that assumption. I can't believe that you mean what you say.

"multiculturalism" is the hallmark of Communism. To the contrary, "multiculturalism" is impossible in any formatted society.
Here, like before, it becomes clear that you use another concept of "multiculturality" for refuting and bad-reputing it, than I do for endorsing it.
Multiculturalism is a weak form of anarchy that is assumed to be compatible with democratic libertine societies. It means that one can be what one is without having to explain why, and that one can choose to associate on a cultural grounds (or choose to not do it). There are of course limits to this freedom, when the cultural association totally breaks out of the boundries of what can be accepted in a society of equals. Where exactly the limits of freedom should be seems to be a process of finding the best compromise.

why did they destroy the 100 Native American nations that exsisted (sic!) in North America? Answer me that boys!!! It is not my task to destroy American myths. I wish to remark however, that I did not say that America a) IS the ideal multicultural society b) WAS the ideal multicultural society during the time span you refer to c) WAS NOT governed BY Europeans in the war/extinction efforts against Native Americans.

You however went with the absurd statement that Communist/Socialist regimes of Eastern Europe and whatnot where multicultural, while in reality their foremost goal usually was to confine and control people's behaviour and minds and not allow for individual differences of opinion - or culture. I have given an example of a state where even minimal cultural differences were not allowed to enter the public mind. Should I go on and explain how Vietnamese, Cuban Gastarbeiters were treated in the GDR (confined in barracks) or Russian soldiers (confined in barracks) ?
