Salim Mansur’s new book, Delectable Lie: a liberal repudiation of multiculturalism, is extremely uncomfortable for Lefties to discuss. So much so, that very few book reviewers will go anywhere near it.
Yesterday Charles Adler had a superb discussion with Mansur. There was also a follow-up segment that featured this review by David Warren. If you’ve long thought there was something rather peculiar about treating all cultures equally, no matter how repugnant some other cultures might be, from these discussions you will gain much intellectual ammunition why.
Multiculturism is destroying Europe and will destroy Canada when the numbers tilt away from the dominant society, which is Christianity here. That will be in less than 40 years unless we change our immigration policies. This will not happen as it is not politically correct and there are votes to be bought in every election.
Mansur & Adler together again tonight on Sun News Network.
Rainbow ‘coalition’
Fantastic isn’t it; using broken and separated light as a paradigm to build upon. A broken foundation.
Multiculturalism is chaos. It is rather similar to letting a well maintained garden go. As the weeds invade you can point them out and say “Look! Isn’t that marvelous? This is real progress.” Four years later a once productive field will be overgrown and yield very little; but leftards will celebrate and extol what is left as ‘organic.’
It’s organic all-right.
I enjoy listening to Salim as he always makes sense and so does David in his columns.
People don’t get that (political) multiculturalism is designed to erode the kind of culture that would tolerate other cultures. Try celebrating Christmas. While white liberals feel good about themselves for the amount of pad thai they eat a week, other cultures impose on others unfairly.
I had the good fortune to sit in this good professor’s class. I will never forget it. He expected the best, raked you over the coals if you didn’t produce but was always fair. When I approached him concerning a reference for graduate school he looked me into the eye and said no and explained why. I will always remember and be grateful for the superb education I received from this incredible gentleman scholar. Read anything he writes, listen any time he speaks and support him always.

“While white liberals feel good about themselves for the amount of pad thai they eat a week, other cultures impose on others unfairly.”
Exactly, and we just enjoy the food for how good it tastes no matter what ethnicity it is.
I see, Knacker. I think liberals are more insincere and may think of themselves as multicultural because of some superficial reason.
And, yes, Thai food IS good. I could go for a bowl of chicken penaeng right now. 🙂
It is perhaps a sign of rejection of this affectation for exotic food and perhaps multiculturalism….but I recently visited a local fast food venue, not noted for high cuisine,….and found it very busy, with a definite trend to gray hair….predominently breakfasting on “breakfast biscuits”…
I don’t need to identify the venue…do I.
The basis of culture is generally the cuisine.
Now we know why King Ferdinand and Queen Isabella of Spain chased out all the Muslims who didn’t convert to Christianity after they captured the Alhambra in 1492. Even back then the concept of multi-culturalism was considered “nation-destroying.” Funny how the Spanish Inquisition is considered today to be “barbaric”, but it’s goal was to ferret out the “fifth column” left behind by the Muslims–who pretended to convert with the intention of undermining the burgeoning Spanish nationalism.
What followed of course was the financing of Columbus’ fleet in search of a different route to the Orient and now you know the rest of the story.
Heard the interview last evening and nodded my head up and down through the whole thing. This is definitely a book on my buy, read and keep on the shelf list.
