The Rise of Far Left Extremism

Contrary to popular belief, Europe is ethnically homogeneous, and Africa is the most ethnically diverse. Japan and the Koreas are the most ethnically homogeneous countries in the world (sure, that must've arose "naturally" without any artificial ideology at all).

Are most people even that racist as they seem?

Korea being a peninsula and Japan being an island had nothing to do with it then? Geography played a pivotal role in separating people ethnically whether that was mountains or bodies of water.

So is the United Kingdom, and yet they chose completely different paths.

The fact is, there were, and still are, a diverse group of different tribes and ethnicities when people first arrived at those territories. It's just that those people have been conveniently "forgotten", pushed aside or forcibly assimilated due to an ideology of ethnic homogeneity. Also that Japanese, Koreans and Chinese have frequently inter-mingled with one another, but of course that has also been forgotten.

However geography might play into a psychological role of these countries, as UK doesn't feel like it's much part of "Europe", and Japan doesn't feel very much that it's part of "Asia".

Those diverse group of different tribes and ethnicities pale in comparison to the vast differences between different ethnic groups that come from different continents. The way I see it, countries should be allowed to choose the path they want whether that is homogeneity or diversity. Diversity or multiculturalism shouldn't be the default go to option for every single country in the world. It also shouldn't be pushed as aggressively in the countries that it's been accepted in. Japan has chosen to be homogeneous then they should be accepted for wanting to retain their ethnicity instead of being forced to become multicultural or diverse because it is the 21st century.

And what about all the ethnic minorities that do actually live there? Should they be just forgotten?

I would say that it's unjust, because then the ethnic minorities will be at the mercy of the arbitrary whims of the ethnic majority. And I doubt that the ethnic majority will be so good and merciful that they would be treating the ethnic minorities well for very long, especially during the hard times.

Then there will be persecution and ethnic cleansing, and history would repeat itself all over again.

Or they will live normal lives where they integrate and assimilate into the culture of their host nation just like how ethnic minorities have already done for several generations in any homogeneous country.

They do experience racism and discrimination, you know. Even severely.
