People of different races can share the same culture.
A multi racial society does not need to (and obviously should not) practice post modern multiculturalism crap.

Exactly! What matters is instilling a singular civic and cultural identity upon the citizenry so that they may be as brothers and sisters under the benevolent guidance of the state. And such like that; ethnic origin is irrelevant in this case, for what matters (as Novus and Cesnica said) is culture, is values. Provided all (or the vast majority, at least) citizens share a set of values things will be fine.



I don't find liberal democracy to be appealing either... tbh, no state currently in existence meets my ideals and now I feel kind of sad the more I think about it.


I find the current form of liberal democracy lacking in many ways, but do not find totalitarian oppression by a sociopath like Xi appealing either.

First of all, my post doesn't have much to do with immigration, though I'll give you that I am against it. It has to do with the people already in my country who might not be immigrants, but who are part of the problem even so. They might not be actually contributing to it, but their presence only adds to the racially-fueled violence which escalates every day.

Personally, I do not know anyone who has, in his lifetime, immigrated to my country. I do know the descendants of immigrants, and yes, I do know one or two that I can name off of the top of my head who is a well-developed, producing citizen. (One of whom actually shares similar political views, a Latino.) But, once more, the exception is not the rule. An anecdote is not evidence. And just as I will not try to form an argument that all Latinos are nationalists who want a Hispanic ethnostate, you should not conclude that all the different races of America are perfect law-abiding citizens who do not harbor any resentment whatsoever for each other based on your own personal anecdotes. Instead, you should, as I have, consider the actual evidence as has been compiled by numerous persons rather than one individual.

This is an observable pattern throughout history, and leads me to believe that everyone would be better off if they had their own racially and culturally unique nation.

I beg your pardon? I wasn't dismissing your sources; I don't often click links to websites that I'm not familiar with (computer security reasons and all that), and as such I didn't get the chance to properly analyze said sources. Is that understandable?

Well, I don't completely agree with you on that one, but setting that aside: What are we to do about it? Simply tolerate the mass amounts of racial violence in the hopes of gradually replacing racial identities with national ones?
My solution seems more desirable.

I imagine it would be tiring to shift my political views in accordance with whatever was popular at the time. I prefer espousing principles anyways.
Capilean News (Updated 16 November)
Where is the horse gone? Where the warrior?
Where is the treasure-giver? Where are the seats at the feast?
Where are the revels in the hall?
Alas for the bright cup! Alas for the mailed warrior!
Alas for the splendour of the prince!
How that time has passed away, dark under the cover of night, as if it never were.

Chinese =/= Han

Except that’s what the CPC and the KMT both consider to be Chinese. If you aren’t Han you aren’t Chinese. The KMT purged a lot of native peoples from Taiwan after they took back control of the island

Social: -8
I'm a 21 year old Australian. Liberalism with a dash of lolbert. I don't do as much research as I should.

I'm a MTF transgender person, so I'd prefer you use she/her pronouns on me. If not, he/him'll do.

Exactly! What matters is instilling a singular civic and cultural identity upon the citizenry so that they may be as brothers and sisters under the benevolent guidance of the state. And such like that; ethnic origin is irrelevant in this case, for what matters (as Novus and Cesnica said) is culture, is values. Provided all (or the vast majority, at least) citizens share a set of values things will be fine.



I don't find liberal democracy to be appealing either... tbh, no state currently in existence meets my ideals and now I feel kind of sad the more I think about it.

Meritocratic, tier-based stratocracy? :D

Ah, another NSGer familiar with the Templin Institute. I see that you are a being of culture and good taste.
< THE HIGH SWAGLORD | 8VALUES | POLITISCALES >
My NS stats are not indicative of my OOC views. NS stats are meant to be rather silly. My OOC political and ideological inspirations are as such:
The Republic, by Plato | Leviathan, by Thomas Hobbes | The Confucian civil service system of imperial China | The "Golden Liberty" elective
monarchy system of the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth | The corporatist/technocratic philosophy of Henri de Saint-Simon | The communitarian
ideological framework of the Singaporean People's Action Party | "New Deal"-style societal regimentation | Kantian/Mohist/Stoic philosophy
