What ever happened to assimilation?

My father would never teach me his original language so we wouldn’t be hampered. So all my siblings and all my cousins never got to learn their native language unless they studied it themselves. While it’s a great idea, I would like to be able to speak it.

These people bring their culture here and then demand we accommodate them and I’m getting pretty tired of it. Like your culture so much, then stay there or assimilate.

The "Melting Pot" is a myth.

Even back in the early parts of the 20th century, millions of Italians and Irish and others came here. Only a small percentage mixed. They mostly stayed among their own.

That polarization has become worse over the decades.

Muslims are The Borg. Resistance is futile. You will be assimilated.
