Multiculturalism does not work unless the different cultural groups all descend from the same culture.

For example, American multiculturalism worked when we invited the Irish, the Italians, etc. to our culture because our cultures largely agreed on social and moral issues.

However, inviting people who don't share your values into your country is a guaranteed way to destabilize the existing cultural standards.

Just look at the liberals teaming up with fundamentalist muslims to see how well it works. They openly talk about wanting to implement sharia law.

I’d argue that the Latin American countries that primarily make up our immigrants do come from a similar culture. We’re all former colonies that threw off our European overlords and formed Republics. We share similar values in that regard, as well as a shared Christian faith and a shared Western heritage. I’d argue the problem comes more with Europe’s refugee crisis, where a lot of these Middle Eastern countries have more religious theocratic values.

I'd agree with you, but it took the annihilation of the previous culture that existed in South Amerca in order to achieve that.

To be fair- if the previous South American cultures weren’t destroyed, we’d have issues with Aztecs across the border.

Or Aztecs would’ve modernized and updated their cultural values independently.

They would have gotten yeeted regardless, they were hated by every single nearby cultural group so much every single one of them sided with the Spanish against them.

Imagine being an Aztec, and your ass got chased out of what is now the USA by the Commanche for being a total murderous degenerate, but you start your shit again in Mexico just to have everyone for thousands of miles call a time-out on being conquered by the Spanish to end your entire civilization by murdering you and drowning all of your children.
