Summary:
Diversity isn't a virtue. It isn't a benefit to society. It isn't even anything anybody ever planned on having. Diversity is no more a social good than is obesity, climate change or pollution. Just like those other realities of modern life diversity is an unintended consequence of other policies and blind forces. We no more have to pretend we welcome ethnic diversity than we have to celebrate erosion or the loss of woodland.File under: why is this seen as something radical?
Diverse nations are not nice places to live and they are not easy places to build the social consensus necessary to operate a successful welfare state.
