First White sharia, now prepare yourself for White multiculturalism. Following on from my last piece on relativism, defending it, now I defend multiculturalism, but not from a Left perspective. Alt Right White multiculturalism can accept the basic counter-Enlightenment, relativist epistemology of the Left; why fight it, when you can subvert it? It, however, then seeks to turn it against the Left, in a form of philosophical judo.
The Left are revolting (pun intended), against the idea of a universalistic rational culture coming from the Enlightenment, the idea that there is one true worldview and morality. They reject science, or at least science that does not support their bullshit. So, I say; let them! Fine, there is no one-world morality. There is no universalistic culture. Right; well, we have our culture, so fuck yourself! Why should we care about this abstract entity, “humanity”? From our relativistic perspective, all that counts is our tribe, and the Left in rejecting Enlightenment rationality has no intellectual resources to refute this. Hence, they must resort to violence, but that is another issue, which can be dealt with.
White multiculturalism is happy to follow in the tradition of Johann Gottfried Herder (1744-1803), who rejected cosmopolitanism and universalism, seeing only a plurality of mutually incommensurable cultures:
“Germans can be truly creative only among Germans; Jews only if they are restored to the ancient soil of Palestine. Those who are forcibly pulled up by the roots wither in a foreign environment when they survive at all: Europeans lose their virtue in America, Icelanders decay in Denmark. Imitation of models (unlike unconscious, unperceived, spontaneous influences by one society on another) leads to artificiality, feeble imitativeness, degraded art and life. Germans must be Germans and not third-rate Frenchmen; life lies in remaining steeped in one’s own language, tradition, feeling; uniformity is death.
From Isaiah Berlin, Against the Current, (Oxford University Press, Oxford, 1981), pp. 12-13.
I would add to Herder, that such a flourishing of cultures is only possible in homogeneous societies: so-called pluralistic societies are just attempts at ethnoracial swamping and ultimately lead to new breakaway mono-cultures, as is happening in the south of America, which is sliding back into Mexico:

That's a great argument. I'll have to remember it.
