You have written before that one of the achievements of the Soviet Union was that they were able to unite 'disparate republics into a single, equal people'. As far as I know, the USSR did not undertake mass migration, so their situation was different from ours, but how did they deal with the existence of disparate peoples and cultures within their state, and in your view, is there anything that we can learn from them that might be applicable to our situation?

Assimilation produces serious negative consequences, multi-kulti produces equally serious, though different, negative consequences, and returning the immigrants to their point of origin is either impossible or inhumane. So what else is left?
