Broadly speaking communism aims to be global, nationalism local, but both tend to be imperialistic. Of course when it's against us it's bad and when it's us it's good, lol.

Agree. See This Crazy World.

People are ultimately divided by class more than they are ethnicity. One only needs to take a glimpse at the tensions that exist in Western cities between the naturalized population and immigrant enclaves, which tend to spring more from conflict over jobs and property than cultural trivialities (the two tendencies do tend to complement one-another, mind).
That somehow seems contradictory. The conflict between naturalized and immigrant populations are ethnic. They arise largely, I think, from a lack of trust, not knowing what to expect from the new neighbors. You see this I think in the Scandinavian countries which were largely socialist and liberal but now that immigrants are flowing in are turning more capitalist and conservative. Of course they start at the bottom with low paying jobs and little property, but over time, after a generation or two, assimilate--the Irish, the Germans, the Italians, the Polish, etc here

Seems particular to the progressive/communist view of things. See Kling on the Three Languages of Politics.
