>There has to be a fix for this with a process to make the assimilation process that's palatable for both sides of the culture.
I'm not sure what "2 sides of the culture" are there, but if a person immigrates to France they should assimilate to the French culture, this is what assimilation means.
There aren't really really 2 sides here, there is only one, and yes take it or leave while might sound harsh is pretty much the way to go because at some point you hit the tolerance paradox.
>And I bet you a lot of them also at some point felt unhappy or felt a sense of misalignment with the ideals of their host nation.
Well that's clearly a problem that should be addressed through education, not through "compromise".
>Some of them are brought up with the belief they're living in someone elses' world -- an unwelcomed guest that people have to 'handle' or or deal with.
Then again you fix that problem through education and cultural assimilation, if some one is being brought up and thought things which are antithetical to the worldview of the culture they live within it it's a problem.
Moral relativism doesn't work in the real world, we had no problems telling South Africa that Apartheid was bad, no one was making an argument that it was their culture.
If certain institutions are breeding ideals that are contrary to western ideals and values you deal with them on a case by case basis.
