Is Cultural Diversity Breaking Society? The Earnest Mann Perspective

Hey, it’s Earnest Mann. Today I’m cutting through the noise and getting real about what’s behind the chaos in our world. Spoiler: it’s not just people losing their minds — it’s the system, the forced diversity, and the population pressure that’s driving us off the rails. This episode isn't for the faint of heart, but if you’re tired of being spoon-fed nonsense, you’re in the right place.

Homogeneous vs. Heterogeneous Societies: What Really Works?

I kick off with an unpopular truth — homogeneous societies tend to have stronger ties, shared values, and stability. Compare that with the fragmented, heterogeneous mess we’ve got today, and you’ll see what I’m talking about. It’s not racism. It’s reality. Birds of a feather stick together for a reason.


From Yeast to Humanity: The Wine Analogy That Explains Everything

Ever made wine? Yeast thrives until it drowns in its own waste — alcohol. Sound familiar? Humans, packed into cities, forced into unnatural conditions, end up in the same toxic mess. We’ve outgrown the systems that once helped us thrive.


Mormonism, Isolation, and the Right to Be Left Alone

Remember when Mormons got shipped off to Utah to do their own thing? That was a functional form of separation, and it worked. Homogeneous groups found peace by being left alone. Contrast that with today’s forced integration, and you’ll see why conflict is rampant.


Industrialization, Urban Cramming, and the Big Lie About Human Nature

We weren’t made to live shoulder to shoulder in cramped cities. Yet industrialization turned us into economic livestock, packed into tenements, cut off from real community. The lie that “humans are social creatures” is just that — a lie. At best, we’re semi-social and need space to thrive.


From Neighborhood Identity to Forced Diversity: How We Got Lost

Growing up in clearly defined ethnic neighborhoods was never about hate, it was about familiarity and peace. Forced integration stripped communities of their identity, and now no one feels at home. We’re all strangers pretending it’s progress.


Europe’s Collapse and the Illusion of Multicultural Utopia

I’ve been hearing from folks across Europe — and the pattern is clear. Countries that were once peaceful and clean are now dealing with the same cultural dysfunction America faces. The UK is the poster child of what happens when woke ideals are forced on societies that never wanted them.


Woke Culture, Shame, and Identity Erasure

The modern push for inclusion has gone too far. It’s no longer about tolerance — it’s about erasing identities, shaming people for their roots, and pretending cultural diversity is always a net good. It’s not. And if we can’t talk about that honestly, society doesn’t stand a chance.

I would like to meet - both online and in person - individuals interested in discussing ideas on what really needs to be changed, to improve the quality of our lives.

If you've ever wondered why the world

0:03

has become so damn crazy, it's not the

0:07

people per se. It's the circumstances

0:10

they're in making them that way.

0:14

Hey, here it is Monday and I hope you

0:17

had a good weekend. Mine wasn't worth a

0:21

damn, but who knows, maybe it will

0:25

improve.

0:26

I wanted to jump right into something

0:28

that is really going to be

0:31

controversial.

0:33

So, bearing that in mind, um, if you are

0:37

weak of heart, constitution, or

0:40

conviction, this may not be the episode

0:43

for you. But if you have the courage of

0:47

your convictions and just a little bit

0:50

of intellectual honesty, stick around.

0:52

And if anything, well, you'll probably

0:56

be entertained.

0:58

Now, here is the first statement that I

1:03

wanted to make to start this off.

1:06

A homogeneous population is a group of

1:09

individuals that shares a uniform

1:11

composition,

1:13

meaning its members are similar in key

1:16

characteristics such as culture,

1:18

ethnicity, beliefs, and other traits.

1:22

This uniformity leads to common ground

1:25

amongst residents, fostering strong

1:28

social networks and community ties.

1:32

The exact opposite of homogeneous is

1:35

heterogeneous.

1:36

So it stands to reason that if a

1:39

homogeneous society leads to a common

1:42

ground amongst residents, fostering

1:45

strong social networks and community

1:48

ties, what do you think a heterogeneous

1:51

society leads to? Here's a hint. It's

1:55

not rainbows, peace, and universal love.

1:59

It's the fragmented and dysfunctional

2:01

society we have today.

2:04

We by and large live in a world of the

2:08

heterogeneous society and at least in

2:11

America have been living that way for

2:14

the last 60 years.

2:18

So with that in mind, that's where I'm

2:22

taking off from. I'm going to say a

2:24

whole bunch of things that well,

2:26

frankly, might piss a lot of people off,

2:30

but you're not here for the same old

2:33

same old boring nonsense. And I don't

2:35

want to give it to you, so I'm just

2:38

going to tell it like it is the way I

2:41

always do.

2:44

Have you ever made wine

2:47

yourself at home? Have you ever actually

2:49

made wine? you know, and maybe the big

2:52

five gallon uh cask and you have to uh

2:56

you know, rotate it and all that. It's a

2:58

whole procedure to making wine or

3:00

perhaps at least if you know you're

3:03

familiar with the principle.

3:05

What it is is simply um well adding a

3:08

bunch of uh you know some kind of

3:11

sugared juice uh maybe grape juice, what

3:15

have you and some yeast and it starts to

3:19

ferment.

3:21

And generally speaking, without going

3:23

into a whole bunch of boring technical

3:26

jargon,

3:28

um it fermentss it fermentss up and you

3:32

eventually end up with what we know as

3:34

wine.

3:36

And typically that has an alcohol

3:40

content somewhere around give or take 12

3:44

to maybe 15% alcohol. That's that's

3:49

really pushing it typically somewhere,

3:52

you know, around maybe 11 to 13%, let's

3:55

say. Now, the reason for that is that

4:01

literally the yeast do an incredible job

4:04

of just eating and reproducing.

4:09

And uh and I mean they're just they're

4:11

just it's it's gang sex on a on a level,

4:15

you know, you you couldn't even imagine.

4:19

But anyway, they do their job. They do

4:22

it really well. There's a huge

4:25

environment. They got plenty of food,

4:28

plenty of room to swim around.

4:30

Everything is fine. and Jake and all

4:34

that until it isn't because quite

4:39

literally the fermentation process

4:42

stops.

4:44

uh not so much necessarily because

4:47

they've run out of food, although by

4:50

then most of the sugar has been

4:52

consumed,

4:53

but because they literally die in their

4:57

own excrement uh that they produced,

5:00

which is the alcohol.

5:03

Well, you could sort of kind of use that

5:07

same uh analogy of where we are as a

5:12

human species on the planet

5:16

because

5:17

um yeah, things started out pretty much

5:20

pretty much really good and this is

5:23

where we are now as far as just the bare

5:27

bones of existence are concerned.

5:30

You see, let me just uh segue off of

5:33

this just a bit, but hopefully it will

5:37

make a sociological point. You see, in

5:40

America all those many, many, many years

5:44

ago, um, when there was all of this

5:47

endless talk about freedom, and this of

5:50

course spilt over into, well, religious

5:53

freedom, and, um, there was this uh,

5:57

this guy

5:59

um, Joe Smith. Um, I can't remember if

6:02

he was actually the founder, I think he

6:04

was, of the Mormon church. Okay. So, um,

6:10

most people very, this is a very long

6:13

story short, and I recognize that, uh, I

6:16

may be butchering this, but again, it's

6:19

for illustrative purposes, but the point

6:21

is is that,

6:24

uh, just about everyone uh, hated um,

6:28

Mormons. Um yeah, when the religion was

6:31

invented,

6:33

um they hated them and thought they were

6:35

crackpots for whatever reason. They just

6:39

didn't like them. Didn't want anything

6:40

to do with them. Didn't want to be

6:42

around them. And that was that. And

6:45

long, very long story short, government

6:48

steps in and says, "Okay, okay, you

6:51

crazy [ __ ] Tell you what, you guys

6:54

want to do your crazy crazy polygamy

6:57

thing and all this other [ __ ] you want

6:59

to do that nobody likes.

7:02

You can go out way way out west to what

7:06

eventually, you know, to the state of

7:08

Utah

7:10

and um you know, basically that'll be

7:13

your place. You guys can get your crazy

7:16

crazy on with um well with your thing of

7:21

Mormonism. You could do your thing and

7:24

you leave us alone and we'll leave you

7:26

alone. Go ahead. Do your crazy crazy uh

7:30

out of sight, out of mind. Do it. And

7:34

that was more or less the way it worked

7:37

out and it has to this day.

7:40

Um, now say what you want about

7:44

Mormonism or the state of Utah. I have

7:48

been to Utah many times. I have been to

7:52

many cities and towns within Utah and I

7:56

can tell you at least in my opinion for

7:59

the most part. I'm certainly not saying

8:02

there, you know, there aren't some very

8:04

nice places there, and there are, but by

8:07

and large, it's a godforsaken hell hole.

8:11

And I sure as hell wouldn't want to live

8:13

there. Again, uh okay to visit, you go

8:16

to certain places, but nah, sure as hell

8:19

don't want to live there. But that's me.

8:22

So, but at any rate, those people,

8:26

they had a place as a homogenist group.

8:32

Um, if they're, you know, were crazy, at

8:36

least they could be all crazy [ __ ]

8:38

together. And for the longest time,

8:42

yeah, they could be over there and do

8:45

whatever it is they do. And again, out

8:48

of sight, out of mind. Okay.

8:52

But like everything else in every

8:55

society

8:57

that only goes so far as you know as it

9:01

will as far as population and

9:03

encroachment is concerned now for the

9:06

longest time and even to the present day

9:10

there's still not you know people aren't

9:13

head over heels crazy crazy can't wait

9:17

to get to Utah

9:19

and to be around well Mormonism.

9:25

Some may, but you know, by and large,

9:28

nah.

9:29

So,

9:31

but the point is is that they had their

9:34

place

9:37

and they still have their place because

9:42

at least here in America, just about

9:44

everybody knows that most of the folks

9:46

in the vast majority of um people in

9:50

Utah, especially if you're in Salt Lake

9:52

City, are Mormon or excuse me, they

9:57

don't like to be called that anymore.

9:58

more because of the whole polygamy thing

10:01

and all that [ __ ] So, they're Latterday

10:04

Saints. Excuse me. Pardon me. Okay. But

10:08

anyway, um yeah, the people are fully

10:11

aware of this and it hasn't been like,

10:14

you know, the government and the army

10:16

and the n, you know, the army, armed

10:18

forces hasn't stepped in to shut them

10:21

down or anything like that simply

10:24

because it's, you know, pretty isolated

10:27

and godforsaken.

10:29

Same thing for Wyoming. I mean there are

10:33

there is pro it is probably one of the

10:36

at least in the continental United

10:37

States it's one of the most um you know

10:41

isolated uh sparsely populated places in

10:46

the US and so yeah uh you're you know

10:50

you're just one of those people that

10:52

really want to be by yourself or I don't

10:54

know you're you're kind of of a person

10:57

peoplehating kind of person and you

11:00

really really want to be away from

11:02

people, Wyoming is your place. Yep,

11:05

that's where you want to go.

11:08

But for the rest of us, and

11:11

approximately

11:13

80% of the population is uh you know,

11:18

east of uh the Rockies, way over here in

11:21

the greater third of this country. Um

11:25

they don't have that choice. That's

11:28

that's mainly and mostly where the

11:31

population is. So then you enter the

11:35

whole population dynamic.

11:38

Now I'm going to jump over to another

11:41

aspect of this whole thing just to set

11:44

the record straight.

11:47

way way way back again

11:51

just at the arrival of the industrial

11:54

revolution

11:55

uh the invention of steam and then the

11:58

discovery of oil

12:00

um the eastern United States in

12:03

particular literally exploded in

12:05

population

12:07

and there's a million reasons for that

12:09

and they make logistical sense why this

12:12

happened but you have to bear in mind

12:15

that all of those cities east uh in the

12:18

eastern part and particularly on the

12:20

east coast that had these huge

12:22

populations.

12:24

This happened not because it was uh such

12:29

a wonderful place to live which

12:31

initially it was quite beautiful but um

12:35

the cities New York City um Baltimore

12:40

City for instance places like this are

12:44

completely were quickly filled up with

12:46

rowousing. The rowousing was not put

12:50

there to uh graciously accommodate uh

12:53

the uh farmers that came to work in the

12:56

cities. This this wasn't the case at

12:59

all. They were there these row houses

13:03

which were cheap to build. It was

13:05

strictly utilitarian

13:07

was to the idea was to get as many

13:10

people as possible crammed into these

13:12

[ __ ] holes which were side by side and

13:16

tenementss and all of that so that the

13:19

owners of the various companies and

13:21

factories and all that could maximize

13:24

their profits from these people.

13:29

And unlike prior to that, these people

13:32

largely they came from, you know, very

13:35

rural settings, um, you know, they knew,

13:39

hey, uh, they're going to have obviously

13:41

they're going to have babies, they're

13:42

going to have youngans. So, in these

13:46

little

13:48

rogue houses,

13:50

um, they didn't care if you were

13:53

cranking out, you know, five 6 7 8 12

13:58

kids like perhaps you were on the farm

14:02

once upon a time and it was your pretty

14:04

much your sole responsibility to provide

14:07

and take care of them. They didn't care

14:10

how many of you were cramped in these

14:12

tournaments.

14:14

They were making money from you. And so

14:18

because of that, and this is where

14:21

everything radically changed, it's been

14:24

a pretty much a spiral down this this

14:29

cesspool of what I call terribleness

14:32

ever since.

14:34

Because simply put, people are not

14:39

attuned to live that way. I don't give a

14:44

damn what anyone says. I don't care

14:47

about the professors and sociologists

14:49

uh that say otherwise. And one of the

14:52

biggest lies that has been uh

14:56

perpetrated for many many years is that

15:01

well you know humans are social

15:03

creatures.

15:04

[ __ ] We're not.

15:08

What we are, what I would call at best,

15:11

we are semisocial creatures.

15:15

Um, you know, it's um people, your

15:19

neighbors, they'll help you when they

15:21

can or if they can, but um and the same

15:25

hopefully you'll reciprocate for them.

15:28

But by and large, you know, they want to

15:30

live alone in their own, well, little

15:32

towns or or on the farm or in their

15:35

community.

15:38

But we're not given that option today.

15:42

We're not. So, it's a nonoption.

15:46

So, as you look at this background film,

15:49

and this could be I I jumped all over

15:51

the place just to illustrate with the

15:53

photos, but look at the numbers of

15:56

people

15:58

And all those people require, you know,

16:01

a relatively large amount of resources

16:04

and they're put in an artificial state,

16:08

you might say, where um well, the living

16:11

isn't pleasant at best. So, fast forward

16:15

to today as an example.

16:18

Um, most people, you know, when when

16:21

you're young, I was once young and I

16:24

lived in those tenementss and those row

16:26

houses until I was, you know, mid20s and

16:31

I lived all up and down the East Coast

16:34

and I lived in Brooklyn and uh, you

16:37

know, and in the Bronx and and and I'm

16:40

thoroughly acquainted with neighborhoods

16:43

there and and the whole tenement living

16:45

thing. sometimes halfway decent. Most of

16:50

the time, no. And the primary problem

16:53

with it is, and I'm and I'm simply I

16:55

know I'm jumping around for just because

16:59

well, I don't have three hours to make

17:01

this uh to make this episode, but um you

17:06

know, it was the joke back then used to

17:08

be it used to be called the three Fs of

17:11

living there. You always knew whether

17:14

you wanted to or not what your neighbors

17:17

were doing. The three Fs being fighting,

17:20

[ __ ] or farting. Not necessarily in

17:24

that order, but that was the whole

17:26

thing. And what it's supposed to do for

17:29

you

17:31

when you're at that age is you quickly

17:33

realize uh whatever company you're

17:36

working for or if you're trying to work

17:38

your way up in the world or whatever the

17:40

case may be, you sure as [ __ ] don't want

17:43

to live there. That's your whole goal.

17:46

Working your way out of this. And the

17:48

big reward is supposed to be the

17:52

suburbs.

17:54

And uh don't let's not get me started on

17:57

that

17:59

living. But I'm saying by comparison, as

18:04

far as any semblance of relative peace,

18:08

um that that's your next step up. That

18:11

that's it. But now you don't even have

18:15

that. that's not even an option because

18:20

everything and everyone

18:23

because of the you know social uh

18:27

stratification that I just spoke of you

18:30

don't have a choice of your neighbors at

18:33

all at all I mean for instance if I

18:38

happen to say that I am Scott Irish

18:42

um I grew up in a Scottirish

18:46

neighborhood. We had enclaves and that's

18:49

the way it was. And we also had, you

18:52

know, Italian neighborhoods and we had

18:55

black neighborhoods and and so forth.

18:58

But they were very clearly defined and

19:01

there was multiple ways that, you know,

19:04

this was done.

19:07

And this was done

19:09

despite all of the rhetoric of racism

19:11

and all the other horseshit that got

19:14

passed down from the 60s. People figure

19:18

out, they really do as far as, you know,

19:21

what works socially. And the old saying,

19:25

birds of a feather, you know, um it was

19:28

true. And um people we got along. We got

19:35

along because good fences made good

19:38

neighbors.

19:40

And I remember the um forced and that's

19:44

exactly what it was. I remember the

19:47

forced integration when all of this

19:50

stuff started when I was entering you

19:54

know elementary grade school let's say

19:58

and uh the integration was forced and it

20:00

was an absolute unmitigated [ __ ]

20:04

nightmare and that's the only way to say

20:06

it at least for me and everyone I knew

20:09

and everyone across the city absolutely

20:12

hated it but thanks to the uh the PR

20:17

work from the Rainbow Coalition, it was

20:20

forced upon us. We didn't have a choice.

20:24

And that's what I'm talking about is

20:27

taking place not only here in America,

20:30

but in Europe. And God knows if there's

20:34

if there's a poster child in Europe for

20:38

the absolute

20:40

nightmare, the absolute social nightmare

20:42

and degradation and

20:45

everything conceivable that is wrong, it

20:48

would be the UK. And that is really that

20:52

that is just a tragedy. It's just

20:54

absolutely unspeakably horrible.

20:58

So, uh but you know, they're not alone.

21:02

um that's throughout all of Europe and

21:06

prior to say I don't know this [ __ ]

21:09

started in the mid80s or or what have

21:12

you but um yeah you had homogeneous uh

21:18

areas countries you know uh the uh the

21:22

Netherlands

21:24

and Norway, Denmark, Sweden, all these

21:28

places and um you people used to go and

21:32

visit. I remember talking it's older

21:34

people, older guys talking and they went

21:36

to the famous saying they went to

21:37

Denmark or they went to Amsterdam and

21:40

and I said, "Oh man, it's so and it's

21:42

beautiful and it's clean and the people

21:45

are really nice and it just going on and

21:48

on and on." And yeah, in retrospect they

21:52

were because relatively speaking there

21:56

were much lower populations and those

22:00

populations that were there are

22:03

homogeneous.

22:04

So I don't even uh this is a much longer

22:10

episode than I had intended and I don't

22:12

want to wear your ear off with this, but

22:15

um maybe I can do a part two on this if

22:18

you're interested. But, um, I've been

22:21

getting a lot of email from Europe and I

22:26

decided to put my two cents out there

22:29

and kick these ideas out there and I

22:33

don't know, see what you guys think.

22:35

Maybe, you know, make you maybe you

22:37

think I'm I don't know what the hell I'm

22:39

talking about or maybe you can see where

22:41

I'm coming from. But, um, that is the

22:46

current state if you want to know. And

22:48

this is not of course this is not the

22:50

totality for all the reasons. Um but it

22:54

is a huge huge part of it

22:58

because

23:00

under the guise of you know cultural

23:03

diversity and all the other woke [ __ ]

23:06

and all this other nonsense

23:09

when people are not allowed

23:12

I'm saying allowed

23:14

when they are not allowed to have their

23:18

own

23:20

identities

23:22

and areo or are supposed to feel ashamed

23:25

of those identities. Well, you end up

23:29

with the nightmare that you currently

23:32

have today.

23:35

Anyway, I've really talked your ear off.

23:38

Thank you for listening and hopefully

23:40

you'll put your two cents in and, you

23:43

know, drop a line and let me know what

23:45

you think. Until next time, this is

23:49

Ernest and that's all I've got.

23:52

for today.
