German Chancellor Angela Merkel says multiculturalism has failed in Germany. How? By “allowing people of different cultural backgrounds to live side by side without integrating into mainstream society”. Which basically means that Merkel’s idea of multiculturalism in Germany is actualy mono-culturalism in Germany. Her culture.

Which basically means intolerance has prevailed.

Listen, multiculturalism has nothing to do with language or race or religion or ethnicity or anything like that, although all of those things can be sources of multiculturalism. Multiculturalism has everything to do with the fact that people are different, can be different in many ways, and that that’s okay. Multiculturalism is just as much about  punk rockers coexisting with urban rappers as it is about Jews coexisting with Muslims. But I’m pretty sure Chancellor Merkel doesn’t think that punk rockers in Germany can’t get along with urban rappers in Germany, or that one group needs to “integrate” with the other in order to achieve a peaceful society.

It’s all about tolerance and acceptance, which stems from security in one’s own identity.

Saying that multiculturalism has failed because some people can’t speak German at a level you find satisfactory is just a viewpoint undertoned to propagate your own rooted fears and racist beliefs.

Multiculturalism is a byproduct of individual freedoms, with or without immigration.

Don’t ever let anybody try to tell you otherwise.
