Diversity is often sold to Western public as an economic necessity, but many on the left also believe that diversity is inherently good in and of itself. In fact, it is a near religious maxim that does not necessarily need to be explained, but more a matter of unshakeable faith. Native populations such as the French, English, Germans, and basically any European native group are becoming minorities in their own lands, but for the sake of diversity, the left believes this must continue.
This also appears to be the message of the German Labor Minister Bärbel Bas of the far-left Social Democrats (SPD), who made a number of controversial remarks at the Action Day Cohesion in Diversity.
“And we want to fight for color and also stand against this so-called ‘uniform grey,’ or I even call it ‘brown’ (Nazi). Even if some people may even long for it. That’s why it’s especially important to me as Minister of Labour to address this here. We need the people who come to us, even as high-skilled labor, yes. But we also need them to ensure diversity in our society,” she said, adding: “That’s just as important. And that’s why, because high-skilled workers are missing in many industries, it’s certainly an economic consideration.”
