It works very well where I come from. India.
and it had the same inter region wars as europe
What is called multiculturalism in India is a mix of indigenous sub-cultures who share many similarities, which the different cultures of EU/Europe can be considered to be following as well.
India has one of the world's largest muslim population. Pakistan separated due to religion and not culture. In fact Pakistani has Punjabis that are quite similar to Indian Punjab and Bangladesh & Indian West Bengal has quite similar cultures.
> What is called multiculturalism in India is a mix of indigenous sub-cultures who share many similarities
Are you claiming that Assam, Gujarat, Tamil Nadu and Bengal cultures are the same? They dont even share the same scripts (and in case of Tamil it is even a different root language)! They may be sharing same religion for majority of people, but that does not make it a subculture.
I think you are conflating religion with culture.
"Indigenous sub-cultures who share many similarities" doesn't mean "cultures are the same". All their current scripts originating from the same Brahmi script is part of that shared culture.
Your example of multiculturalism is more in line to the indigenous cultures throughout EU/Europe sharing similarities. While the context of European discussion on multiculturalism is on migrants and their culture.
The obvious solution to this fake “ohhh everyone is immigrating to XYZ!” panic is obviously just making citizenship easier to achieve.
It’s the same in the US. Too many people are undocumented? Okay, so document them, problem solved. But the right won’t do that, because they are lying to you. They don’t care about documentation or illegal immigration, they care about skin color and white purity.
Germans are people having a German passport. They will not be a minority. There is already no single German ethnicity as the history and culture has been diverse regionally.
Stopping legitimate refugees is extreme in my view (against human rights). What you are doing is classic right wing rhetoric mixing legitimate refugees and illegitimate into one pool.
I don't care at all about ethnicity, but that sentence is part of the problem. Lawfully spoken it's a tautology, but that's not the concern people have. They are concerned that the German culture get erased within a few generations, because to many people with a too different cultural background enter the society. That's a legitimate concern nobody really wants to address.
> concerned that the German culture get erased within a few generations
It seems to me that you do not know what ethnicity means.
> They are concerned that the German culture get erased within a few generations, because to many people with a too different cultural background enter the society
I addressed that by saying there has never been a coherent German culture
Do you think that's true for German in particular or generally for countries? Like, do you think there isn't something like French or Italian culture? I always found it very weird how people think that Germany is somewhat special in that regard that we somehow ended up without having a coherent culture.
This a US centric platform here and so many words in the US come from Germany. I just learned that "Rucksack" (for large hiking backpacks) has become part of the English language in some regions. We totally need to introduce "Döner" as well. It's not random words that join other languages.
The changes are a constant everywhere. Using that as an excuse to hate is political manipulation.
Think about it: 20 years ago you weren't a hateful person, that also changed. Why not get back to an older version of yourself? I'm sure at the time you thought things were amazing, there was already a bunch of frustrated middle aged men hating what you now love and miss.

Of course having seen this you will still glaze your eyes over and insist nobody has ever made the accusations I claimed they did. Because none of this is about discussion but beating people into submission.
Tellingly, your response to that exact question was “just get over it.” No. Sometimes you also must consider views you don’t hold.
I made the claim that Europeans have a right to miss times and places that have gone by. The responses have all been to either suggest this is problematic for unstated reasons or to journey off as you did into a truly unrelated land of non sequitur.
That's why the actual fascists like AfD have become so strong. Destroying the middle ground only serves the extremists.
That's how German culture as it is was created in the first place. And that's how the future German culture will be created, ad infinitum.
Ethnic erasure is a crazy concept, we are mixing ethnically for centuries and who cares about color of eye or skin anyway? What we need is cultural preservation and coherence to some degree. So we should improve on refugee laws - which btw the green party had started before they were bullied out of government by the elites.
Valuing a nations culture, values in society, borders, and maintain coherence within society are not far right idea. All political platforms strive more or less for those things, through they do differ on what values they want to focus on and deploy different strategies.
The united states for example, current situation acknowledged, saw a meteoric rise even with, perhaps even because of a rich cultural tapestry that could be in no way described as coherent. Sure there are large blocs of cultural identity across multiple regions, but that's about it, and even then that's been on the decline for some time.
Some German states also have multiple official languages, that by itself is not the example I made.
A society needs a common ground the foundation. If a democracy or equal rights for everyone is desirable and other things.
