I think he is just trying to distract from 20 years of wasted lives and trillions spent on a total debacle that is Afghanistan. Culture war nonsense is just a distraction for the press so they don't report what we all know is about to happen in that country.
The general, to his credit, compared reading about critical race theory to reading about Mao and Stalin. So he gets that they are the same but it’s puzzling how he can’t connect the logic dots. If A & B are enemies & A=B=C, then C is also the enemy. Transitive property, General.
