Whenever one talks about how vibrant some predominetly white countries are like Norway, Sweden, or Switzerland..liberals always say it's because they are homogenous. When you for example, talk about how filthy NYC is liberals will say it's because NYC is "crowded" or "has people from many different cultures". Then when you point out that Tokyo is far more crowded than NYC ..and is far cleaner ..liberals will say because it is "homogenous".. instead of saying the real reason....because it is all Japanese and Japanese have alot of pride and respect..with not many minorities in japan.
Another favorite is "gentrification". If well to do yuppies displace minorities out of their communities it is "gentrification". Why not just say "We saw areas that had potential but we felt minorities made it an unattractive place to live. Now that they are gone, we can live there and to not feel guilty for displacing the poor..we can cite it as economies of scale"..
Other than when it comes to milk, I haven't heard anyone of any political persuasion rambling about homogenous. What exactly are you whining about here? Gentrification is far from a right or left word.
Seriously, put away your emotion and come up with something that actually makes sense. In terms of getting out talking points and making sure people are on point, the GOP is world's better at that than are the Democrats.
Not sure who these liberals are nefariously using the word 'homogenous', but here's a guy who clearly has something to say about the racial makeup of the Nordic states:
Kilmeade and two colleagues were discussing a study that, based on research done in Finland and Sweden, showed people who stay married are less likely to suffer from Alzheimer's. Kilmeade questioned the results, though, saying, "We are -- we keep marrying other species and other ethnics and other ..." At this point, his co-host tried to -- in that jokey morning show way -- tell Kilmeade he needed to shut up, and quick, for his own sake. But he didn't get the message, adding, "See, the problem is the Swedes have pure genes. Because they marry other Swedes.... Finns marry other Finns, so they have a pure society."

It's that Japanese culture, at least, has a great level of peer pressure to follow certain rules - among them is to not litter and foul things, and another is that you certain obligations to family, etc, and those who don't accept and fulfill them are strongly shamed and pressured to conform.
We USED to, but then we've had generations of liberals telling us that it's the government's job to take care of everything.
Wow, almost a good post until you screwed it up with partisan banter that you can't prove. I could easily put a counterpoint forward of Singapore where the government sees it as its job of taking care of everything. Much like everywhere in America, they make littering illegal, but punish it with things like caning.
Unless you have some data showing that cities are more/less polluted now than they were and that this is caused by generations of liberals telling you something then you shouldn't make such stupid assertions. You just give the rest of the population the idea that conservatives are emotional, whiny little terds with nothing productive to say. There are plenty of us who aren't that and then there are people who make stupid statements like the one above.
There's this thing called personal responsibility. Take some for your own statements.
