      They think the idea that geography and/or climate can shape a civilization is woke. Their idea is that civilizations and culture are something that I guess exists a priori as "good" or "bad", and "developed" or "undeveloped". The very idea that a bad crop yield or lack of local resources can shape how a society develops apparently contradicts with the reactionary worldview.

          What the fuck do they think shapes a civilization? Some magically scarce yet potentially infinite "willpower" resource?

          It's not coincidence that one of the Nazis' propaganda films was literally titled Triumph of the Will.

          I think it's either full calipers, or very terminal econ brain. I guess when the modern world is so focused on spreadsheets, it may be easy to forget that there is a world that humans are forced to interact with.
