One of the greatest myths of our time is that "diversity" and multiculturalism is our strength, which is so obviously wrong and stupid that only very

intelligent people can persuade themselves that it's true. Diversity is very clearly the source of much conflict and tension all around the world wherever you look. And of course, it is worth noting that multiculturalism ironically destroys true diversity, because the more people are mixed and come together as one, the less diversity there will end up being. The other myth is the idea that race does not exist and is some kind of sociological optical illusion. Everyone knows that race exists and that there are differences among the races; people behave on the basis of race all the time, but we are supposed to act like it doesn't exist.

I have realized that all the people I have dated come from a different background, but same race. So we can expand this matter to more demographics. Before we even get to culture and religion and race when it comes to basic practicalities of day to day living; decisions and priorities our behavior would clash because it was shaped by 2 different circumstances. This is regarding money, how to raise kids and chores (gender roles) blah blah. Even if there is chemistry between us the chemistry is destroyed by simple differences. Now I fantasize about being with a like minded person and a person that whos upbringing was similar to mine. I thought it didn't matter but it has been a toxic space with negative repercussions that affect personal growth.

@Molemane I couldn't agree more! There is so much to say about that, but time is not on my side right now. Also, I see you have been scrolling through my posts almost back to the beginning. I hope you're gleaning a lot from them.
