Inevitably, this massive uni-culture is one lacking any value to identity. Nationalism is vilified, the idea of there being only two genders is heresy, whites some how not oppressing people of color is ridiculous, demanding that foreigners respect the native traditions of the land they currently reside in is the worst form of intolerance, and to be actually serious about your religion is idiotic. Your nationality is not important, your gender is not important, your race is not important, your history and culture is not important, your religion is not important - some of the previously mentioned are so unimportant, they can be interchangeable. Many feel that this push for a uni-culture is being directed by the more privileged liberal elites of society. Most in the west do not hold so little value on their identities though, and that is why I believe the west ( specifically the right )has recently began to fight back against the tide of globalism.

So why is there room in America for Greek-Americans to have their own churches and culture, or for Swedish-Americans in Minnesota to have smorgasbords with dishes like lutefisk? The American "melting pot" — which is in itself a kind of globalist approach to culture — has never required the elimination of ethnic differences, merely their acceptance by enough people to keep the general peace.
Your premise is faulty: Globalization does not require monoculture. It simply requires tolerance of the differences between people of different origins.

You may be thinking of Globalisation. Globalisation is a good thing in my opinion, but Globalism is protectionist, the opposite of Free Trade

No, not really. Near westminister you've several mosques, churches, Hindu temples and a Buddhist temple within walking distance of each other (yes I had to check the map). In harrow you've Hindu temples, Jain temple, churches and mosques on the same road all within walking distance. People living in areas with comparatively higher of migrant population largely don't seem to have a problem with migrants or multiple cultures - people living in areas without exposure to migrants tend to be the vocal opponents.Republic of the Cristo wrote:But these days, we see people like radical feminists attempting to bring down all ideas of traditional gender roles, people calling the majority of whites the reason why America is wrong.

Removing gender roles is hardly radical, it is entirely sensible and it is rather embarrassing we still have that concept. I've no idea what your second point about majority of whites is supposed to mean.
