USA is not the most diverse country (its ethnic fractionalization index is below that of Moldova - https://worldpopulationreview.com/country-rankings/most-racially-diverse-countries or https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_ranked_by_ethnic_and_cultural_diversity_level)
Out of listed countries, the only one that exhibits clear signs of ethnonationalism is Russia (although I have to admit to be fairly ignorant on state of things in Argentina)
Lumping Russia with its former colonies screams “ignorance”
Grabbing a bunch of countries from the oldest trade route and thinking they are gonna be ethnically homogenous echoes the previous scream
Me spending time on this post is a clear evidence of procrastination
Poland has universal healthcare, walkable cities, affordable intra- and intercity public transportation, and provides free higher education to its citizens
Moldova provides free education to its citizens and has universal healthcare
Even Russia has a still working universal healthcare (terrible by many standards, but still beats US) and provides higher education to its citizens
Argentina has universal healthcare and offers free higher education to it’s citizens
Why am I still procrastinating? Send help!

USA is a dominant superpower though.

Idk, both of those studies leave a lot to be desired. The first methodology is based on language, which ignores the history of conflict and forms of imperialism that used language as a tool of imperial expansion.

The second study doesn't count any culture that doesn't make up more than 1% of the total population. Which means countries like Papua New Guinea, one of the most ethnic diverse countries in the world, doesn't even register as they don't have a dominant ethnic group.

How am I to build any skills at all when my only motivation is procrastination?

Procrastination is a skill I use every day.
