The idea of a melting pot is fine but the actual ingredients do matter. Europeans have a long history of intermingling cultures and we mix well. Many other cultures don’t mix well and will resist assimilation no matter where they go.

The melting pot was never intended to be an allowance of a foreign culture to infiltrate the thought processes and culture of the host nation

religions even moreso than cultures.
in 1300 years, Muslims have never assimilated anywhere.
(except for temporary periods, especially when they are in low numbers, as permitted by kitman and taquiyya).

So, this is a great start. but what will Holland do,
when they still refuse to assimilate,
and the 6% continues to grow?

(and, will the USA wait until we have 6%,
before we learn from Holland’s and England’s mistakes?)

Worth repeating. Unfortunately true.
