Racism?

Why on Earth is this article "tagged" under the subject "Racism"???  The article discussses some celebrities' sense that English culture is being diluted through high levels of immigration.  Is that anything other than a truism?  Why is it racist?  As one adds more flour to batter, the batter becomes less like batter and more like dough.  Is it "anti-flour" to say so?

Especially for a website focused on Jewish issues, it seems highly suspect to characterize as "racist" any viewpoint that posits an existing culture is worth preserving.  Such viewpoints need not include any judgment that other cultures are less worthy, and if they do not, why should they be deemed racist??
