The Minnesota Somali fraud and multicultural victimhood * WorldNetDaily * by Hanne Nabintu Herland

The British Christian commentator Katie Hopkins has excellently explained the failed U.K. multicultural experiment in a Jesse Lee Peterson podcast. Multiculturalism is the poisonous Marxist 1960s ideology that reiterates that one should not require that immigrants assimilate into the host cultures, but each ethnic group that moves into a Western nation should be allowed to retain their own cultural heritage, and thereby not integrate. The multicultural experiment assumed that the West would be populated by all cultures and that these would all happily embrace Western hedonist liberalism. An atheist, Marxist utopia would emerge – a new type of Western society without traditional values – and everyone would live happily ever after. Needless to say, this utopia never materialized.

Hopkins explains how the first generation immigrants who came from Asia and Africa worked hard; there were hardly any welfare benefits for the newcomers. They assimilated into British culture through hard work. They were few, and the majority ethnic British population embraced them as a wonderful contribution into British society.

Then multiculturalism with its entitlement and victimhood became mandatory. Millions arrived that did not want to be part of British culture. They did not work or take part in Western values and meritocracy, but passively collected money from the British welfare system. This change is of utmost significance. The new immigrants did not assimilate, but ended up living in parallel societies, permeated by negative attitudes toward Western culture, all the while collecting Western benefits and thereby highly burdening the taxpayers. Hopkins characterizes the U.K. as a fallen state in which she, as a white, Christian, conservative woman is discriminated against, in her own country.

Katie Hopkin’s story also explains how the massive Somali fraud in Minnesota became possible, and why the media and Minnesotan politicians have allowed it to go on. Framed as the largest welfare fraud scheme in U.S. history, the massive increase in fraudulent Medicaid Housing Stabilization Services (HSS) claims related to autism and housing stabilization services in Minnesota is largely attributed to Somali community actors. Significant amounts of U.S. welfare funds are funneled through fraud schemes and sent overseas, reportedly funding al-Shabaab terrorism in Somalia. The Somali community is described as a “crime racket,” using businesses as fronts, politicians as cover and policies to funnel taxpayer money into Somali pockets.

The numbers are horrible, suggesting systemic challenges in law enforcement and governance. 40% of Somali households receive remittances totaling $1.7 billion annually, exceeding Somalia’s entire government budget, according to recent reports. President Trump recently posted on X the immigrant welfare recipient rates by country of origin. For Somalis alone, a shocking 71.9% live on welfare benefits.

The problem is that Marxist multiculturalism has taught the rest of us Westerners to simply excuse criminal foreigners, as they come from terrible countries with massive corruption and fraud – places where nothing works and the population is chronically suffering at the hands of their incompetent leaders. Therefore, we should be nice and not demand accountability, but feel sorry for them. This is probably why CNN treated the self-styled journalist and MAGA YouTuber Nick Shirley with such contempt. As he investigated the allegation of Somali fraud on daycare sites, exposing billions of dollars in fraud, CNN showed up, trying to excuse the “poor victimized” Minnesota Somalis, while Shirley quickly was labeled racist, Islamophobe and other standard left-wing slurs the very instant he questioned crime committed by these Africans.

Multiculturalism effectively breaks down national sovereignty, cultural identity and the Christian heritage in Western societies, by moving millions from non-Western nations who do not share Western values to become welfare recipients in the West. The idea is that over decades, these new inhabitants will alter the cultural and religious fabric of Western societies, tearing down the classical Christian heritage, which is the end goal for Marxists in the first place. Domestic breakdown will make it easier to gain total Marxist control over society and permanently alter the West.

Marxist multiculturalism is inherently a racist ideology that automatically gives dark-skinned individuals the victim card. It breaks with the classical Western value of equality regardless of race, creed, social status and ethnic origin, introducing the very opposite. It separates citizens according to race and discriminates against the majority population in order to “help the weak and feeble” non-Western immigrants. With the current Somali fraud in Minnesota, it has become painfully clear that the Somalis are neither weak nor feeble, but perfectly capable of all sorts of fraud, lying, stealing and corruption in the scale of billions of dollars.
