legally-enforced homogeneity
Honest question: Would you want to live in a country with legally-enforced diversity?
(Because that's where you're living.)
- gojomo 18y agoThe question is too vague to answer. What kind of 'diversity' and how is it 'enforced'? I haven't emigrated, and I prefer more open immigration than either Finland or the U.S. allow.
- dgabriel 18y agoYes.
- mynameishere 18y agoYour neighborhood or mine? Is it okay if the good and decent men of congress choose your neighbors? Or should nationalist groups like La Raza be in charge of determining the country's composition? That's what I mean by "legally-enforced diversity": Powerful people, deciding for other people, whether they are acceptable, or whether they should be numerically marginalized.
- dgabriel 18y agoIf you are asking if enforced diversity as it exists in this country today is ok, as in one cannot be discriminated against based on nationality, color, creed, or sexual orientation, then yes. I prefer that to a nation where tiny city states can determine whether or not they want their neighbors to be all white, or bosses can decide if they only want to hire men. That's totally fine with me, even if it needs to be legally enforced. La Raza is not a nationalist group, but an organization to help disadvantaged Latinos. Do you know La Raza members?
- astine 18y agoHow about freedom of association? I heard that they tried that once. Seems like a good idea.
