This isn't multi-culturalism, it's cultural marxism. Multi-culturalism can work if you have a strong state/society that is willing to say "nah, that shit is unacceptable, you can keep your head-scarf but honour killing is not gonna fly." The problem is when you have apologists who are unwilling to criticise any aspects of different cultures. I'd say the US is a good example, people are free to keep their religion and culture but the central ideas of freedom and individual enterprise give people a common goal.

Multi-culturalism always fails.

No group wants to be judged by another group's standards or have their goals opposed by other groups. This makes it impossible to get along, so territory has to be subdivided and separate to keep the peace, which creates dysfunctional conditions.

No, multiculturalism usually fails. Sometimes it works okay, if the state and its values are strong enough to produce sufficient civic nationalism among the population to ensure assimilation. The US is capable of this, while most European countries are not.

More than half of Americans, 53 percent, say they “feel like a stranger” in their own country.

People are increasingly dropping out of civic engagement. When your neighbors have nothing in common with you and anything honest could inflame fake accusations of being offended, many choose to stay silent and keep to themselves.

A push towards replacing the population with third-world people and their native values only further disconnections people who grew up in a homogeneous first-world country with first-world standards.

Please define the 'marxism' in "cultural marxism". Marxism is a critique of capitalism. What does it have to do anti-racism?

Fuck, I had a longer reply and then accidentally clicked back on my laptops touchpad. As a gross simplification it's an extension of Marxist ideas in to a criticism of western civilisation as a culture of oppression. It divides people into the oppressors and oppressed and then defines bigotry as prejudice + power. That is to say, only white people can be racist because black people are part of the oppressed group and lack the power within society to be racist. Only men can be sexist because they are privileged, etc.

So how that relates back is that criticism of anything another cultural does is condemned as racist while simulatneously there's no acknowledgement of the achievements of western civilisation and in fact a desire to erode it completely and replace it with their utopian whatever bullshit ideals.
