" Multiculturalism is like having legs that want to walk in opposite directions, or having one hand that wants to slap your face and another that wants to stroke your face, or having two warring hemispheres of the brain, with completely different aims. It cannot work. A single monoculturalism is just as disastrous. It prevents change. What is required is a diverse monoculture ... a single system that can express itself in myriad different ways. Multiculturalism means trying to sustain different, competing systems and pretending they belong to the same system and are all working for the common good. They don’t and they aren’t. This is the central lie of multiculturalism, and liberalism in general. "
