Nah, the far right are quite happy to point to Tokyo as an example of the superiority of an ethnically/culturally homogenous society.

Singapore is a better example, but requires a form of authoritarianism to pull off that would be unacceptable to both the right and the left.



What if ethnically/culturally homogenous societies are just superior?


I’d like to think they aren’t, other people are just used as scapegoats to blame bad things on


You don't have the courage to be openly racist?


Exactly which race is his statement advocating as superior? There's a bunch of ethnically homogeneous nations in the world, and their ethnicities are quite different from each other. Japanese are not the same ethnicity as Norwegians.


It would only be unacceptable to the right because that hypothetical authoritarianism would apply equally to themselves
