The variant (if one can call it that) with the downward-pointing wings was certainly also in official use. (See this huge gallery from the Third Reich in Ruins site.) One example are the famous bronze eagles at the Luitpold Arena in Nuremberg. I have no idea what the heraldic/symbolic significance of this is, if any; I guess there were also practical considerations at play (cost, size, structural balance).

Indeed, but unlike these eagles, those predate the Italian fascist movement.
This page has a picture of Japanese-American troops in the highly-decorated 442nd wearing these coats.
It's kind of curious in this context that the US national eagle adorning the entrance of the Epinal American Cemetery, as pictured on that site, is an almost perfect copy of the Nazi imperial eagle. (The eagle decorating the entrance of the Henri-Chapelle American Cemetery in Belgium, on the other hand, is pretty much a copy of the Nazi Party eagle. The difference is kindly explained on Wikipedia.)

Also, Xi's half-sister was studying at a military academy (I wasn't aware that those were accepting women back then in China) and was driven to suicide during the Cultural Revolution, at least according to Wikipedia.

Those of them who survived to 1941 were mostly released and conscripted back to frontline service, as far as I know.

I'd say he made a good attempt at humor and correctly summed up what the argument of lipstick feminists would be if it was a uniformed organization mainly consisting of women that'd be the one criticized for its looks.
Also, I'm somewhat of a misogynist myself, but I'd ask you to differentiate "women" from "lipstick feminists".

Rounding up vagrants is I think a task that citizens' militias / vigilante groups are best suited for.

I thought though that playing matchmaker has traditionally been a social role assumed by older women, not by men like you.

Alright. I'll bite. How would you categorize them instead? Civic nationalist? Just grifters? Something else?

This generally seems to be one case where the sex ratio is severely distorted in one direction or the other; women’s general willingness to marry is eroded as a consequence either way. One Manosphere blogger described it thus:
“Why should I think about marriage? All guys are available.”
“Why should I think about marriage? No guys are available.”

They're all psychological colonies of whatever the US PMC thinks. Fuck's sake, Finland holds BLM rallies. You're all living in America.
Just found this in an older discussion that was linked to in the current thread.

There is no attractive sexually available 18-29 year-old alt girl willing to take direct action to fix the demographic crisis with you. She doesn't exist.
It may not be much, but I can name three real women who actually did exactly that: Eva Vlaardingerbroek, Lana Lokteff and Brittany Pettibone. If your larger point is that attractive, sexually available 18-29 year-old women are generally not interested in oppositional political activism, then I concur.

Not even the cities? OP appears to be describing the slums of Buenos Aires.

whatever douchebag she unwisely ends up tying herself to
Are you referring to a man who's only interested in casual sex with her or a man who's open to marrying her but then turns out to be some useless lazy bum?

If your argument is that eligible men that are prone to reward it are out there but are fewer in number than in earlier times for various reasons, I agree with you. However, if it is that female agreeableness has somehow lost its value even among men that are open to marriage because times have changed, then I disagree. And I think that female agreeableness is generally as rewarded by parents and children as ever.
If we’re specifically discussing the scenario where an ambitious young middle-class or upper-class woman wants to have a fancy career and get dream promotions, then her agreeableness will indeed be punished.

Drug, gambling, and video game addictions are vastly more common than they were, for one thing.
So are alcoholism, drug addiction, addiction to pornographic literature and trashy YA fiction, obesity, mental illness, prescription drug abuse among women.

Once you're out of college, and most men don't go to college at all so that opportunity ends for them even earlier when they finish highschool, they are just not naturally exposed to enough women. Their job is probably male dominated, and even if it isn't they are unlikely to make moves on their coworkers anyway. Their hobbies are male dominated too, so chance of meeting someone there is low. Social drinking, going to bars, clubbing is not in anymore, so they don't do that often enough either. So what's left?
Isn't the overall situation more or less similar for women though?
That CNN and the legacy media in general is lying through its teeth about his character and the nature of his activities, I guess.
