I don't have a comment. Like...wha?
Man, I didn't know:
A) The sky could go woke (good for it)
B) Woke is apparently contagious to the whole sky but conservative is completely overwhelmed
C) Putin cracked down on LBGT people what 5 years ago? Saying that is bad caused an invasion
D) Intercontinental Ballistic Tweets? So words can hurt you? I'll note that one down for later. This will used as evidence A in a variety of tweets he will make later
E) People actually believe that hard men makes society bullshit. Not noting that, based on the outrage, cancelling and death threats the LBGT community gets, that they are hard than most men

I imagine Clay Higgins had a ranty discussion and having worked himself up into a froth, popped onto Twitter to deliver the conclusion. Except that without the benefit of how he got to that conclusion, it's witlessly random.

You've made two conflicting claims, that the woke view is that white people have no culture and that white people are a monoculture. And neither of them are actually the "woke view".

The "woke" view is that there is no such thing as white culture because predominantly "white" countries have their own distinct cultures. We're also still arguing over who is and isn't white for Christ's sake, how can there be a shared culture? The regressives are the ones who believe there is an overarching "white" culture. As a "white" guy who's grandfather, who has the same skin colour as me but was decidedly not considered white when he went to England to find work, I absolutely agree that there is no such thing as "white culture". Germans have a different culture to me. French have a different culture to me.

Not to mention that most predominantly white countries would have a whole bunch of different cultures of white people.
I mean yeah, there's a reason the Irish use terms like "West brit" and "tan" (not a race thing it refers to the black and tans which is also not a race thing even though giving the full name makes it sound worse). The Irish can't even agree on what Irish culture is.

I watch the movie Australia... and I think that was a very specific time and place where that was a part of Australian culture. Definitely not all of it

I would point out that the whole point of pretending that there is an 'overarching white culture' is to enforce a particular culture onto white people. It's just traditionalists pretending that everyone thinks like them and will cancel anyone who steps out of line

The Q nuts are going absolute bonkers today. They really bought into Putin's manly posturing or something because holy shit

As the cliche goes, if you don't stand for something you'll fall for anything. These are some of the most directionless, unprincipled people in the world and they're looking for an authoritarian strongman to tell them what to think, say and do so the burden of making that decision is no longer on them/

True bitches-in-boxstands. Sad, but nothing new here. The same type of imbeciles that claim to think for themselves, but don't want to all the sudden when there's somebody powerful and being a jackass. Then all sudden they're blameless, or try to blame the person that encouraged them to do the thing. They never want to take any responsibility, or will expect God to sort things out.

If you were hoping for anything other than fatal concentrations of cognitive dissonance going on around there, then I'm afraid you are shit out of luck son!
There's also an insidious game of peekaboo at work. Authoritarians and fascists talk out of both sides of their mouths in order to signal to their followers their dedication to authoritarianism, while also giving them a degree of plausible deniability when sneaking their repugnant politics into the mainstream.

In other words, they'll call anybody who disagrees with them a Nazi in public while praising Nazis behind closed doors.

One of the primary requirements to be a "true believer" in the Q cult is to be able to change your mind about anything in a split-second when "your betters" tell you to.
I didn't realise this video would be so pertinent to the current political crisis given the title, but then again the title is very apt (it's about Q).
They have a cult mantra that erases all critical thought and all doubt when reality threatens to intervene in their crazed delusion - "Trust THE PLAN".
