USA, Canada, Australia and India are highly multicultural.
Brazil is not really multicultural since brazilian culture encompass every other, but people is mixing here, there is no social conflict at all in this mater, what is the problem in Brazil in your opinon ?
Although i also encourage mono cultures, i support diversity in all aspects.

Were the Kalash to petition for US citizenship, however, I would demand they adopt our culture. Or any other nation.
Nationalism means respecting cultural identity as an absolute quality to be cherished and lionized.

you should become a native American then, or go back to Europe or wherever you're from

The Dutch bought Manhattan from the Indian tribes, for one.
Secondly, later land was bought or conquered.
No American Indian tribe can make any rational claim to any land owned by "the white man".

Yeah, I'm wondering what he meant.
Maybe he has confused Aboriginals with some other group...
First group I thought of when I saw the pic was the Roma. Gypsies.

I literally meant that they remind me of them. There isn't necessarily a resemblance, but something about them reminded me of the Aboriginals.

That still doesn't mean shit.
White people originate from Europe. They do not originate from America, which is a multicultural smorgasbord and has been since the inception of this country. If you (or anyone else for that matter) iare indeed some kind of nationalist, and if you care that much, then go back to where your ancestors came from.
Of course, most Americans don't know shit about their ancestral roots, the languages, the culture, and have lost all ties to the "motherland" and instead subscribe to American culture, which is largely artificial and corporate, and ultimately multi-cultural.
Further, there is no "white culture". There is a clear difference between a German and a Greek, a Russian and a Spaniard. The Europeans by-far have never seen themselves as a unified race or people, and that is still true today.

There is nothing rational about nationalism or some kind of bullshit cultural/racial purity or isolation.
That mode of thinking has always failed. America, for instance, attracts the brightest from many countries including China, Japan, Iran, and India. The tech sectors are run by these people. Engineering and med schools are full of them.
In my opinion, people who rabidly cling to nationalist or racial ideas simply have nothing to offer the world and instead bolster their self-worth by clinging to something external. That is why nationalism (as well as fundamentalism, racism, etc) thrives amongst the uneducated and is nearly absent amongst the intellectuals.
