I never said that we can't.
I said that we must
because we're always going to be diverse and have no choice.
I've also said that we haven't done particularly well with doing it so far.
Ethic animosity right now is rampant in this country.
That's the reality, whether we want to admit it or not.
We must make an effort to do better--even though some of us don't seem to want to try.
However, to say that solidarity doesn't come easier,
with less effort,
to more homogeneous nations
is to deny reality.
I believe in what I see
which isn't always what I would want to be true.
I never said that we can't get along as a multi-cultural nation.
I've said that we won't unless we make a better effort than we're doing now.
But we have to, because our diversity is never going away.
That's what you don't pick up in my posts.
However, with race and ethnicity put aside,
I often think that we're too IDEOLOGICALLY diverse to ever get along.
We're even worse reconciling our political differences than we are our cultural ones.
