So how is it that Japan got the same score as Australia?

Language?

From your wiki link.

Quote:

In the Fearon list, ethnic fractionalization is approximated by a measure of similarity between languages, varying from 1 = the population speaks two or more unrelated languages to 0 = the entire population speaks the same language.[3] T

Sounds like a poor measure of ethnic diversity. I expect it is a better measure measure of ethnic hostility.

Ridiculous - unless you have language homogeneity, you are 'low on cultural diversity'?

How do the Eskimos feel about that? So we of Oz with many lingos are not culturally diverse by that standard?

What WERE they smoking? I think the Hyena Chode has it backwards as usual... he's an eddicated man, you know, and adept at plumbing the depths for oddball interpretations of social science ....

There you have it. Australia is not a culturally diverse country.

That rank is near the bottom which is North Korea 159.

China, Egypt, and Libya are just ahead of Australia.

UK 108, New Zealand 101, USA 84, Malaysia 58, India 16, PNG 10, Tanzania 1.

There are only 20 countries below Australia in the ranking.

Well, two word for you then - fcck off.

We grew here, dear boy. You flew here.

If anyone's going to do any fucking, it is we.

Now, it's been a long day. Time for beddie byes, no?

Fit in or fcck off is the only viable attitude.

Come come, we take in all types. Look at Sprint: he flew here, yet he's able to read your broken English and respond in kind, with a nice, freshly-laid turd for you to devour.

I was here first, Sprint. You can wait your turn.

Oh, don't worry. The govt of 2022 will open up the borders to all that want to come into Australia. We will have diversity coming out of our arseholes.

Not if they all speaka-da-English, dear.

Alternatively, we could learn a local language. Dharug, in my jolly case.

Perhsps Sprint could share some Maori with us if he's up for it.

It still is really, the culture may have changed a bit but it's not multicultural. How's it working out for China? How's it working out for western nations? Which are more divided?

So monoculture is not necessarily a certain determinant of success.

China is trying to drive its population towards a monoculture and will soon be doomed to retreat from that goal as Germany once had to.

If you are growing crops
You want a bit of crop rotation
You might plant corn and then a legume
Because different crops provide different benefits

But what you don't do is allow uninvited crops
Also known as weeds
To just spring up wherever they like

As the ruler of the land
You go and assess a plant
And if it is adding to the overall wealth of the farm
It is welcome to stay and reproduce

But if it is just a taker plant
A plant which takes resources an add nothing to the overall profitability of the farm
Then you stick a big dose of exterminant down it's throat or you run over it with the slasher

You certainly do not let it stay and reproduce
Not if you want an awesome rich productive successful farm

Not sure what to make of this:

https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/e/e5/List_of_countries_rank...

List of countries ranked by ethnic and cultural diversity level. List based on Fearon's analysis

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_ranked_by_ethnic_and_cultural_di...

These Polls and Rankings are formulated in the same way as "Most liveable City" etc? Because if they are - then it's just MOST MONEY PAID. Remember Sydney being like #2 on World Ranking for most Liveable City - when everyone in Australia knew it's only a city to 'work' like a criminal, as 'living' standards were the worst for anything in Australia to compare with for starters.

Totally agree with North here.

Even the Han Race, though plentiful - is genetically 'thin' in substance and variety compared to other peoples and nations now. Like butter spread too thinly across a large piece of toast. A race of 'replicants' - where if you shoot one, another 10 drop down dead as well.

Breaking the 'mindframe' of the CCP won't be hard. It's just set on one agenda only - MASS PRODUCTION. Something that doesn't matter to Australia's future where the "Nips are bigger"
, not numerous. Wink

Just ask Greedy Smith.

The Australian closet-pom culture is struggling with the concept of cultural diversity.

In fact, the UK is a prime example of the benefits of cultural diversity because it would never have risen to the pinnacle of a world power prior to the 1900s without the flow of other nationalities into the country.

The problem with cultural diversity concepts of Australians is that they still fear being labeled the white trash of Asia.
