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? Or is it calipers time and "build pyramids" is just in the Egyptian genes (or aliens, if they're that white in their beliefs about how nonwhites can't build stuff)?
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.

It's not coincidence that one of the Nazis' propaganda films was literally titled Triumph of the Will.
It can be poetic when the delusion of mind over matter hits material limits, though.
This is my favorite one of these lol
