The Absurdity of Multi-Ethnic Nationhood

This is in response to a recent piece in the Telegraph, Are white girls really ‘easy meat’? by Andrew Gilligan, the thread to which, with my comment on it, has been removed, whether deliberately or by technical fault, I don’t know.
One other feature in the abuse must be the view, held by a substantial minority of British Muslims, that the Western lifestyle is immoral or degenerate.
If this is a specifically Muslim view then perhaps it’s time that I (and a lot of other natives) converted . . !
It illustrates, for the unblinkered eye, the MADNESS of creating a multi-ethnic society on the scale we now have. Because it’s one thing criticising publicly those you identify with as your OWN, but quite another criticising those you don’t identify with.
What, if any, wider weaknesses does it expose in Britain’s Muslim communities?
It’s the audacity of those Muslims (a minority), who, having chosen all the advantages of British citizenship over those of their country and culture of origin, then slag us off, which really gets up our (the natives’) noses.
But then, you can’t blame Muslims who were born here, because they didn’t make that decision. Neither would I blame their parents or grandparents for making the decision to come here, with all the advantages and opportunities Britain offers over their country of origin, nor for wanting to retain their own ethnic and cultural identity – after all, they’re human beings, and not just the “human resource” or ideological ammunition which state and capital primarily see them as.
What, if any, wider weaknesses does it expose in Britain’s governing class?
Those to blame are our own ruling elites, who wanted cheap foreign labour for British business, on the one hand, and to implement the ideology of “colourblindness”, of “race-doesn’t-matter”, i.e. is of no social or political significance, except to evil “racists”, on the other, thereby establishing their moral superiority and claims to power (much as the Catholic church did in the Middle Ages, only using a different ideology to claim the moral high ground with).
The truth is that race and ethnic origins DO matter – for human beings! – for an individual’s sense personal and group identity. Denying this and trying to impose a sense of multi-ethnic nationhood on us, which is what our ruling elites have been doing for the past 60 years, by condemning anyone who objects as a “racist” (or “bigot”), is economic and power-political madness. And we should know where madness (of whatever kind), sooner or later, leads . . .
