>But it is he who extemporaneously alters the definition of cosmopolitanism to mean that all White nations must become “multicultural and multiethnic.” There is nothing in the Enlightenment requiring European nationalists (who believe in peaceful cultural exchanges among nations) to welcome immigration and diversity. Pinker’s claim that European national pride and ethnic identity leads to parochialism and intellectual narrowness can be categorized as a form of irrational indoctrination obscuring the actual origins of Enlightenment ideals within ethnically homogeneous European nations.

What is it about the (((Pinker’s))) that cause them to constantly attempt to distort and undermine our history and values and when will we stop putting up with it?

Unless that article is arguing that the Enlightenment thinkers were in favour of parochial nationalism (and I'm pretty sure they weren't- ethnic nationalism was a romantic reaction -against- Enlightenment values), that makes no sense.

Also
>ethnically homogeneous European nations

Ethnonationalism is the default position before nations are polluted by the dogmas of multiculturalism and multiracialism. Anyone who lived in an ethnically homogeneous society and didn't actively fight against it is an implicit ethnonationalist.

I'm not a fan of Pinker, but I really hope communism ends up winning globally. Even stalinism. I just want this /pol/ crossboard shitposting to end already, even if it means getting the gulags up and running again.
