I grew up in a multicultural place. Your comments sound very incorrect to me, diversity is a good thing.
However getting a multicultural society to function is indeed very hard, and many places that aren’t so diverse definitely operate with less conflict.
What I don’t have a good answer for at the moment is if we should be purposely building diverse societies or if we are just trying to make what we have work better.
Some things seem obviously true e.g people should have equal rights and women should participate in the work force.
When we travel we often talk of broadening our horizons. So incorporating new ideas also seems obviously true.
But this mandated bureaucracy seems wrong and unhelpful when you have teaching staff limiting contact with students to minimise the possibility of perceived slights.
