I took a screenshot below Elon's tweet. It's weird that nationalists identify with food so much

Funny that they never identify with like, anything tasty. It's always some weird keto caveman thing where everything is raw and gross.

They don't really identify with food, they identify with extreme masculinity and eating raw eggs has been a signal of that since like as long as I can remember: https://youtu.be/CmqTHrAeuf0

White Nationalists don't only identify with eggs. I've seen them also identify with milk, claiming that other races are inferior for being lactose intolerant, then later they started promoting raw milk. I've also seen white nationalists identify with pork or bacon, because muslim people do not eat it for religious reasons. I've also seen them identify with beef because beef is associated with masculinity. Jordan Peterson's daughter famously advocates for eating a beef only diet. Some other US Nationalists have advocated for eating a meat only diet.

My previous comment was written sort of lazily. I wanted to write that I've noticed a contradiction of US Nationalists identify with foods to prove themselves as superior, while refusing to eat foods of other cultures which they deem to be gross. It's a contradiction that White Nationalists mock Asian cultures for eating squid as example, but then deem eating beef to be a sign of strength. Why don't US Nationalists advocate for eating squid as a sign of strength? Their claims are not about strength at all.

It's about making an absurd claim that US Slop is the best culture. If eggs are such a sign of masculinity, then why are they disgusted by Pidan (Century Egg)? If it is deemed masculine, fearless to eat a raw egg, shouldn't it be more masculine to eat an egg which has been preserved and aged? It is a contradiction that they presents themselves as being strong and fearless for eating US slop, but then are too weak or afraid to eat the foods of other cultures.

Damn, I was really hoping this was the Nacho Libre eagle egg scene
