The problem is manifest throughout American history. For instance, when LBJ passed the Fair Housing Act, blacks moved en masse out into the near suburbs. Most of them wanted what those suburbs had and to be what the white residents in the suburbs were. But they killed the near suburbs by just moving in there. This was the origin of white flight.
Just wanting to be something doesn't make you that thing. I might want very much to be accepted in some Latin American community as a member of their society, but the truth is, I will NEVER be accepted as one of them. They can be great people and we can get along just fine, but I am not their people and they are not my people.
The worst part of this is that the Multicult entices nonwhites to attempt this, promising them that they can be just like whites, and lots of people immigrate here, have children here, and plant roots here. But they can never be what they wanted to be. They get disconnected from their own people and this is a the source of a lot angst and existential problems. I criticize the SJWs where they deserve it (which is most of the time), but the nonwhite SJWs are absolutely correct that living in a white society creates a lot of issues for them. You are surrounded by people who are not like you. People with a different shared history from your own, different values, different upbringing, etc.
You could have asked black people a long time ago how this turns out. What we did to the American black population was horrendous. We stole them from their homelands. We robbed them of their language, culture, religion, history, and even their capacity to read and learn. They were a people with a brutally imposed amnesia, transported to a foreign land and, after a time, they were set free to somehow compete with a majority population who still possessed their history, shared values, institutions, culture, and religion.
Black Americans are an example of just how bad this really is. But how long do you think it takes to find examples of Asian Americans complaining about similar problems? At the end of the day, it's fucking weird to be surrounded by people who are not like you. Your human instincts are screaming for you to find your tribe, and yet your social conditioning is telling you "this is fine". You're going to have problems from that. I don't care who you are. That's why nonwhites absolutely need their own racial spaces. There is nothing wrong with it. It's basically a triage for the damage inflicted upon people by the Multicult.
I am making a guess here from your screen name that you are of Asian descent. Do you really believe that I could immigrate to the nation from which your family originates and be accepted as one of them? Say it was Japan for the sake of argument, do you really believe that I could become truly "Japanese"? The fact is that I cannot. I can never be one of your people anymore than you can become one of mine.
Saw a red haired Cuban guy on Bourdain just the other day.
You have absolutely. No. Idea. What you’re talking about. But it’s fun to watch.
Oh, yeah. Lots of South America is like us. Argentina was originally a mostly white nation like the United States. There weren't that many people living around there.
Most of the indigenous people in the Americas lived in Mesoamerica and the Andes (Peru and Bolivia). There was a huge civilization in the Amazon we know jack shit about, but that's about it. Everything else was relatively sparsely populated.
Cubans were mostly white before Castro imported a shit ton of black people. Most of the exiles are white. They are descended from Spanish colonists.
It's a mistake to assume that everything south of our border is all Mesoamerican or Andean civilization. It's not.
Apparently you don't read what I said or you have absolutely. No. Idea. How to read.
