As someone coming from a part of the world where Christians and Muslims used to coexist, I will confirm that the cultural distance between them is immense even if they share the same genetics and the same popular culture (food, music, dances, etc). In general, the most peaceful coexistence has been achieved when population exchanges were employed that resulted in religiously homogenous countries.

Take Turkey as an example. Greek speaking Muslims from mainland Greece and while Turkish speaking Christians were expelled to Greece and became Greek. And this done despite the fact that modern Turkey was founded as a fiercely secular nation. History proved Venizelos and Ataturk right. Despite conflicts on many issues, there has been no war between Turkey and Greece since the population exchange.

There are over 85 Shariah courts in the UK. This is how communal jihad is established. Jihad is a religious teaching that is foundational to Muslim principles. Jihad is antithetical to our constitution and is the pathway to theocratic rule with Iran being that historic example.

It is so terrible to see politicians tie themselves into knots to appease illegal aliens. It is even more terrible when they prioritize their needs over those of actual citizens. Let them go live in Muslim countries.

“They are refusing to do their jobs, and the people who pay the price are ordinary citizens in diverse neighborhoods who just want to be able to trust their neighbors.”

Not only that. It represents the early stages toward the inevitable decline and fall of the nation itself.

“they understand that civic culture is not infinitely elastic and that mass cultural importation carries real costs to social cohesion”

They don’t need Harvard studies to tell them. We are intrinsically no less capable of observing the same phenomena and drawing the same conclusions about obvious truths. We COULD draw the same conclusions about the limits on the elasticity of our own countries’ communities and societies, that is, if we were not constantly reminded of the guilt we are required to feel for the accident of being born white. If you were born white, it is bigotry to observe and bigotry to conclude that there are limits. White people must believe in magically elastic communities that not only never break, but are better for the stretching. Anyone who observes or concludes what Putnam did must, as he did, close their eyes and do their best to stuff that genie back in the bottle before their career and life is ruined by their abject failure at mandated pretense.

It's appalling that so many whites are willing to bear this guilt and try to dump it on others. It is giving power to those least deserving.

DEI was a color revolution tactic designed to weaken our institutions and military readiness.

Ask Japanese or Koreans about the value of ethnic diversity.

“Ordinary” people KNOW this. They have been conditioned to deny it, intimidated into ignoring it. This is why Western Europe is doomed. America is in jeopardy. This will end badly.
