When you ask the question: What is Western culture? What is American, Canadian, British, German culture? etc.

A lot of modern people might say, there is no "Western" culture. Why is there no Western culture? Well because of multiculturalism.

But it's hard to get people to even consider, then what was Western culture before multiculturalism became the norm? And why did it seemingly disappear? And why is that not deeply disturbing?

There is Western culture. The culture born of the people who built its cities, who built its countryside. Germans built Berlin. The British built London. Canadians built Toronto. Americans built New York. The society, the environment, and the patterns of activity in those cities carved in by the people who lived there. That's Western culture.

Global socialism doesn't work if Western culture exists. Because sovereign states with strong cultures cannot be controlled from the top down. The 20th century was the war against the West. The war to destroy its culture. And multiculturalism is a weapon in that war. The Third World was brought under the control of constant war and structural adjustment. The result was the destabilizations of those countries and the transformation of their citizens into immigrants and refugees.

I'm thinking about this because I just spent a week with family in Toronto. And as beautiful as the country is, the wanton dismissal of the memory of a Canada before modern multiculturalism disturbed me. And in the past decade, and the last 5 years, immigration has only gotten heavier, and I just couldn't see the Canada in Toronto. It's been invaded almost completely. And this city full of foreigners doesn't seem to know or care about the culture of those who built it in the first place.

Still one of the greatest of all time. I found a treasure trove of alternatives on Reddit just now, and this one was the best:

What's this you've said to me, my good friend? Ill have you know I graduated top of my class in conflict resolution, and Ive been involved in numerous friendly discussions, and I have over 300 confirmed friends. I am trained in polite discussions and I'm the top mediator in the entire neighborhood. You are worth more to me than just another target. I hope we will come to have a friendship never before seen on this Earth. Don't you think you might be hurting someone's feelings saying that over the internet? Think about it, my friend. As we speak I am contacting my good friends across the USA and your P.O. box is being traced right now so you better prepare for the greeting cards, friend. The greeting cards that help you with your hate. You should look forward to it, friend. I can be anywhere, anytime for you, and I can calm you in over seven hundred ways, and that's just with my chess set. Not only am I extensively trained in conflict resolution, but I have access to the entire group of my friends and I will use them to their full extent to start our new friendship. If only you could have known what kindness and love your little comment was about to bring you, maybe you would have reached out sooner. But you couldn't, you didn't, and now we get to start a new friendship, you unique person. I will give you gifts and you might have a hard time keeping up. You're finally living, friend.
