. There are no Confederate colonels, for example, to spit tobacco at our feet and tell us how America's going to pot with all them darkies running loose.

Hmm...lest Mr. Goldblatt get too self-congratulatory over the superiority of one culture over another he might consider that occasionally it's the supposed superiority of one stereotype over another, and that's not quite the same thing.

Multiculturalism is STUPID.
Why? Because it assumes all cultures are equally valid or at least worthy of (governmental) protection. Objectively, many cultures are poisonous, evil, vile, self-corrupting, etc. Simply let all cultures compete for the hearts and minds of the populace and may the best one win.

Another classic comment:

In some cultures they love their relatives, in others they eat them. Do you have a preference?"

No question about it, American culture, for all its faults, rules the world. Why else would the Chinese want to eat a Big Mac and drink a Coke?

The case of Sufiyatu Huseini is, to be sure, only one example, but it's a telling one ? not simply for the barbarity of her punishment but because she was sentenced by a court which suppressed evidence that she might have been raped and allowed the man she'd accused of fathering her illegitimate child to retract confessions he'd made in the presence of two policemen.

gasp. an unfair capital trial! next time we should show our superiority by sending them some texas public defendants to help out.
