It's a case of pattern-matching. They watch online porn and the only women they see in it are infidel Westerners of course.

I’m not disputing that the intent of condescension and humiliation is there but I’d say that the main motivation behind the whole ‘teach men not to rape’ BS from the beginning was to construct a narrative counter to so-called victim-blaming.

These particular men are from cultures where a woman who does not conform to traditional norms and sleeps around has no honor, so raping her does not cause dishonor. In the West they see most local women behaving this way, so when they abuse them, this is the reason, not pornbrain. Online porn just reinforces their belief that Western women are generally even willing to sell their bodies in front of a camera.

It bears mentioning that lipstick feminists are grabbing her story to present it as a parable on this evil, heartless, misogynistic society abandoning victims of postpartum depression to their misery.

I doubt the issue here is society being too large and varied. After all, there was a time when executing certain people and putting other people into mental hospitals (against their will, that is) were part and parcel of living in a functioning society and the great majority didn’t even give it a thought. You’re definitely right about the drug rehab part though.

You are anti-immigration, so you probably hate what Merkel did in 2015. I have lived through it, and I can assure you that it compares to what happened 1939-45 like a sparrow compares to an A380.
Apples and oranges.

I know nothing about the Croat officer, but I'd argue that Mishima’s case was radically different from this one.

I present to you one similar story of a sham ending in suicide that I’m aware of from the annals of international leftist history, that of Alexei Larionov, perpetrator of the so-called Ryazan Miracle. Both stories kind of leave you to wonder: did they actually delude themselves into thinking that they can keep up the facade forever? If not, did they basically resign themselves beforehand to eventual suicide?

I interpreted Nerd's comment to mean that not only does (political) conservatism represent defense, which is an inherently passive activity unlikely to generate much enthusiasm about its prospects, but that it also comes across as pathetic and uninspiring when it tries to defend itself. I'd argue that Western liberalism has also been on the defensive since 2016 or so, for a decade, or at least that is surely how its believers see themselves, and I don't think the defense they're putting up appears that impressive or convincing either. I see a lot of bitterness, pessimism, despair and a lack of vision for the future on their side.

Well, we can add though that liberalism isn't that impressive and convincing either when on the defense, as we have seen in the past decade or so.

I'm guessing the genuine sentiment of most of them was 'I don't want these disgusting, diseased degenerate fucks trying to recruit young men into their subculture and throwing pride parades on main street with the government's backing'. But saying this openly is seen as heartless and petty, plus it gets you cancelled. So instead you see them resorting to the usual religious arguments about sin etc. which in turn compels liberal atheists and 'moderate Christians' to fight against this strawman.

Since you mentioned rape I’d incidentally argue that leftist culture warriors have successfully manipulated society’s concept or rape largely in the same way they have done so with the concept or racial prejudice/bigotry, the difference being that the word itself already existed in one case whereas in the other a new one was invented. That is, their culture war messaging is aimed at normies who share an everyday definition of ‘rape’ in order to push for new legislation and norms which adhere to their own definition.
But anyway, I’ll try answering in detail. I’d say the interconnected concepts of ‘racism’ and ‘whiteness’ were invented as ideologically motivated tools for culturally transforming and manipulating a Christian high-trust society that was and largely is clueless about the true aims of the revolutionary leftist inventors. The goal was never to actually help black people or women, and none of it has anything to do with how the KKK or the Nazis 'interpreted' the concept of race.

Zendaya to me looks like an actress who was discovered and elevated by some Hollywood pederast, because her body for sure is akin to that of a slender teenage boy who's someone's f*cktoy. As another commenter noted: lacking in femininity. And with a sort of meh face. It's not that she's ugly per se, it's that she doesn't match the beautiful starlets of yesteryear.
AOC seems to be somewhat of a butterface and usually has an expression of a crazy person. It's true though that she has good body shape.

An early example of an insufferable SJW twat wielding real power was Danish physician, philosopher and regent Johann Friedrich Struensee (1737–1772).

True. But I don't think the choice is merely between fighting and not fighting at all.

Nostalgia for the bygone days of socialism – I imagine not (again, the Baltics and Poland are probably an exception more or less, in the latter case the reason being that there is scarce nostalgia to begin with)
Sympathy for Russia or merely Russian ‘imperialist’ sentiments for whatever reason – yes
Support for Marxism-Leninism – also yes, bit I imagine to a much lesser degree

It's really just another way of saying that people misread the mandate they actually had and overreached into nonsensical and unpopular areas.
I remember one alt-right argument that was skeptical of Trump from the beginning, namely that he is likely to antagonize, further radicalize and energize the Woke but at the same time is rather unlikely to render any direct or indirect assistance to the struggle against them, or to their victims. Of all the criticism directed at Trump from anywhere, I was sure that this has the strongest legs to stand on and will also have severe consequences down the line. From a rightist perspective, one’d think that radicalizing the leftists only makes any sense if you’re planning to use that as a pretext to crack down on them. If you’re unwilling to do that, there’s no point in it at all.

On the other hand, this sounds like the exact type of woman to falsely accuse you of raping her, so you likely dodged a bullet.
This piece of advice exists precisely for this and other similar reasons (domestic violence etc). The issue isn't whether you get to smash or not, but what happens to you afterwards.

The overall narrative is ‘woke is dead and incidentally it never actually existed’.

I think it’s more accurate to describe all this as autocratic and despotic in spirit, with a legacy that goes back centuries.
in non-Russian-aligned Slavic nations communism is widely stigmatized
I’d opt to nitpick here. This in large part is taking place in the Baltics, and they aren’t Slavic. Also, the reason these symbols got banned is not that these represent Communist ideology but because they were the symbols of the Soviet state, which is in turn interpreted as another vessel of Russian imperialism, which is seen as seeking to dissolve the national character of proud smaller nations under its rule. In other words, the ban is not of ideological intent but driven by nationalism and cultural considerations.
I’d argue it also more or less describes old local communists in the entire former Soviet Bloc, Falangists and other Franco supporters in Spain after 1975 (for a few decades, at least), Italian fascists and Japanese nationalists after 1945 (or at least after US occupation ended).
The women in the family are members of the ingroup, not of the outgroup or fargroup.
