Humans naturally divide in many different ways, is that not obvious?

Diversity is differences.....differences, most of the time, drive or keep people apart.

Diversity never drove me away from other people. How people treat me is the determining factor.

The USA was always segregated, even among Whites. Go look to the Civil War. Alot of White men slaughtered each other over whether or not slavery should be kept or abolished. Bleeding Kansas was basically the same thing.

History shows that America has ALWAYS been segregated based on race. And in alot of cases, it was by force that segregation took place. Public trust was always an issue, and in many cases, it didn't have to be race based. Regionalism has been part of this country's history. People fight over so many things. Balkanization has been a problem in the USA from day one.

Compare Singapore (multiethnic) with Northern Ireland(racially homogenous). Tell me which society has more public trust.

Probably trying to spread a little truth and common sense, backed up by scientific studies,?

Of course, it doesn't fit the leftwing narrative which seems hellbent on cultural chaos.

Exactly! It's just human nature. Nothing racist about it. It's about being able to relate to people on the same level with a shared common culture.

Haiti isn't exactly multi-ethnic either. It's a low-trust society. Belarus is 84% Belarusian. It isn't exactly a high trust society.

Unfortunately for the fans of the study, the United States is already diverse and gets moreso everyday. Stopping the progression of diversity isn’t on the table.

Sorry.
