Too much diversity is really really really bad.
2 comments

I think the threshold for too much diversity is high. Going to college exposed me to a lot of different people and cultures. Despite a few misunderstandings it seemed great for everyone.

The only real downside I can see is if immigrants become isolated in enclaves or the 'natives' are xenophobic. (Ultimately we're all immigrants unless you belong to a demographic that evolved where you live today.)

That was my view 8 years ago, before I came to USA. It was great for a few years.

Now I am not a believer anymore.

May I ask what changed?
Why?
Cultures clash. Life principles clash. Non compromising ideals clash. This is the reality of this world.

Boundaries and fences are healthy.

I’m not saying diversity is bad, like what majority of people here accuse.
