Not even a good try.

You know damn well that the meaning of "multiculturalism" in this context does not refer to a nice variety of restaurants in your town.

When used in political and academic settings, it means exactly what it says on that chart.

It means the elevation of every set of cultural values in the world to the top of a pedestal--except Western ones.
