#113: Do you know what the root word for “diversity” is? It’s “division.” This is what “embracing diversity” does: it divides people. It points out differences rather than likenesses. It creates chasms that divide rather than bridges that connect.
It erases individualism and replaces it with group identity. It promotes bigotry, racism and closed mindedness. It foments a pack mentality among groups rather than a cohesion and assimilation into the greater common population.
Americans are more like Americans than Europeans or Russians. We have our own distinct, unique culture and customs, based on 200+ years of living out the “great experiment” that is a democratic republic, governed by a Constitution of laws that set limits to the power of our government.
Practicing diversity is to perpetuate the myth that certain people are inferior or superior to others. When we can finally get past this faux idealism of diversity, we might finally reach a stage in our society of true color blindness.
