I don't think Aristotle ever wrote about ethnicity in this regard. This reading sounds like serious projection
Brandon Sullivan
So you encounter a rare instance of Aristotle actually being right one time, and immediately hate him?
Ayden Bailey
What makes one assume that there cannot be a unity within a split group? I.E. multiple ethnic groups uniting under the banner of one country.

I hope you mean right as in opposed to being left (in the positional sense). The question remains still, - right of what?
Michael Reyes
Because people look sort of like me = I love them immediately but common culture and history is just made up

I dont. The yellowed part is simply correct. Multi-ethnic societies have anti-democratic tendencies. Sure, the statement appears stronger than that, but the waters between democracy and not-democracy are murky, as are those between mutli-ethnic and ethnically homogenous (no society can be 100% genetically homogenous after all)

>Multi-ethnic societies have anti-democratic tendencies
Based on what observation? India is the largest democracy on Earth and is tremendously multi-ethnic, China in contrast which is predominantly Han Chinese has never in its entire history had a Democratic period.
As far as I can see on the basis of observation alone multi-ethnic states are vastly more likely to be democracies such as practically all of South America, Indonesia. Meanwhile the Arab world and Asia see constant dictatorships.
Ayden Morris
It should be noted, Aritstotle didn't even like democracy
Samuel Russell
Aristotle was anti-democracy desu.
