How Britain went from Great to Lesser after opening their borders and flooding their country with aliens who refuse to assimilate. (Thank you Tony Blair.)

Quoting former Theresa May Chief of Staff Nick Timothy:

And that last sentence encapsulates perfectly the concept of multiculturalism which was born in academia and promoted so heavily through the eighties and nineties by universities and other citadels of Leftism.

I was in college between '83 and '87 and remember it gearing up then. At first I assumed this was just a way to celebrate the diverse cultures that came together to create the American melting pot but was soon dissuaded; I realized it was rather about promoting entirely different cultures to coexist in the same space while remaining completely separate. That worked so well in the Balkans, after all, but here I had professors singing the praises of multiculturalism as a panacea to all the world's ills. Sadly most of my fellow students didn't see that.

The Bible says you cannot serve two masters; you will hate one and love the other. Culture is our master and if we have to choose which one to serve we will naturally hate the other.

Almost every multicultural nation on Earth has problems, and the more close their quarters the worse they are. The Balkans are the obvious example, as is Lebanon (which was once a truly multicultural nation but is now pretty much an Islamic hellhole), but there are many other places - British India led to a civil war upon independence and Pakistan and India today despise each-other, The whole of Africa is at each-other's throats, etc. Even Canada has considerable tension between Quebec and everyone else and the only reason there hasn't been a really nasty split is because Quebec is pretty much homogenous and the other Provinces keep a healthy distance, that and the fact that Canadians developed the ultra-politeness as a mechanism to keep anger from spilling over into their society.

Multicultural nations ultimately only exist as empires - held together by military force of a dominant power. Russia was such and is so today. Ditto China as there are different ethnicities among Chinese, the majority being Han.

Europe, and particularly Britain, avoided this trap. The British People already WERE multiethnic - English, Scot, Welch, Saxons, Danes, Irish, etc. but they created a nation that was uniform in culture by and large and where everyone was happy with the "rights of British" guaranteed by the Magna Carta and other documents. The point is they were originally an empire ruled by England but became a truly integrated society. But no longer as multiculturalism has destroyed the bonds between British citizens and turned the once great Britain into a multicultural pigpen.

If you need a case study in how multiculturalism ruins a nation look no further than the Hapsburgs. They once ruled much of Europe under the "Holy Roman Empire" which encompassed Germany as well as Austria and the lion's share of eastern Europe. Napoleon drove them out of most of Germany, ending the First Reich, and the Prussians took the territory once help by the Austrians. But eastern Europe was still theirs and they wound up needing help with it, thus partnering with the Hungarians, forming the Austro-Hungarian Empire.

This empire sucked and always did not because it was badly run or any more abusive than any other kingdom at that time but because it was chock-full of people who hated it. It was an amalgamation of different peoples - Germans, Hungarians, Slavs, Gypsies, and a lot of Jewish folk, and all of them had no connection at all except their hatred for the governing class of Austrians and Hungarians. That was the one uniting factor, hatred of Vienna.

And while 18th century Vienna was known as an elegant, cultured place it became increasingly cosmopolitan and by extension increasingly seedy as it filled with every manner of peoples from around the continent. It became known as a truly decadent place.

And all the while the governed peoples grew increasingly restive. In the southern provinces, the Balkans, there were revolutionary movements and hatred boiling over, hatreds that had existed well before the coming of Austro-Hungary. (Those hatred would re-emerge after Marshall Tito died and his iron grip on the region was gone.) When Archduke Franz Ferdinand was assassinated by a Serbian national (Serbia had never been absorbed by Austria but a lot of Serbs lived there) the Austro-Hungarian government invaded Serbia to capture and prosecute the assassin Gavrilo Princip it triggered a bunch of mutual protection alliances and thus WWI. At the onset Austrian Emperor Franz Joseph admitted it was the end for his country and it was.

They couldn't hold so diverse a territory without being militarily strong enough to compel the peace between the warring locals.

So countries like Britain or the U.S. or Germany or France began letting in aliens under the theory that "diversity is our strength" when history suggested otherwise, and this experiment has now led to the immanent dissolution of many of these nations. In the end the people just don't have anything to hold them together. You cannot have two cultures existing in the same space. The People will love one and hate the other, just as Jesus said they would.

The United States was a particularly interesting case as it has ALWAYS let diverse peoples come in - with the caveat they become Americans. That is why in times past some ethnic groups came here and were disliked as not out of our tradition but became some of the best we had because they all sought to become more American than Americans. (Italians and Irish come to mind). There were always specific benchmarks that had to be met; learn English, accept our laws and customs, work hard and earn your way.

Multiculturalism flies in the face of that. It demands the culture accept the immigrants not as a possible new American but as they are - with their cultural baggage and ethic squabbles. As the saying went back in the eighties and early nineties, America was becoming less a melting pot and more a salad. Well, salads are sometimes indigestible to people with weaker stomachs.

Cultures are not all the same and while American culture was not perfect it was far better than many of these places. We had an immigration system that let in few people through the twentieth century and those we let in had to come from nations with close cultural ties to the U.S. Ted Kennedy changed all that with his immigration reform bill in 1965, opening the door, nay, giving preference to Third World countries and thus breaking the relative cultural homogenaity. Couple that with the declining valuation of American culture by the leftists who controlled public education and you had the perfect storm for the breakup of American society.

We've been lucky because we had a high population and were able to restrain the immigration levels to a rational degree up until the 21st century. And our federal system made it much more difficult to place the sources of infection around the nation. Oh, and we've had Trump. But Europe has had the E.U. which is never, ever going to change hands and become concerned about saving the cultures that make up it's confederation. The whole point of the E.U. was to break the nation state, nothing more. It is the ultimate empire.

At any rate Britain is toast and I see no way it can come back. Only God Himself can save the Queen or anyone else. Britain has gone down with the setting sun.
