I really hope art like this, as well as the commentary, is just meant to be edgy and/or ironic. That people, or at least this artist, aren't being serious when they say stuff like "saving the white race."

People who talk that way "ironically" often end up saying it unironically.

I don't mind dark, edgy, sometimes even offensive humor, and I often enjoy blatantly bad things ironically for how absurd they are in concept or execution, but often there will always be someone who's like unironically "This is based and 100% true."
Like, taking this image as an example, if I could I would draw Amelia because I think she's hot, but I definitely don't like what she represents.
This is funny because she can heal it instantaneously with a Rampage Dress, which means that she is actively choosing not to do it in order to be carried by Touma.

Man I really hate that. Tried to watch this series a few weeks ago. Got to the part of the first episode where this bitch decided she was going to electrocute this guy because he... I don't fucking know, but for all I could tell because he tried to stop some other guy from bothering her because he knew she could electrocute him, which she actually did along with the other guy's friends while they were chasing down this protagonist to beat him. And then she also wanted to electrocute Mr. protagonist. Christ, what a nonsensical description of events, but I swear the anime wasn't making any more sense. And the worst fucking part of it all being that I knew Mr. protagonist was going to befriend this baffling bitch, probably without even beating her to a pulp first! Maybe I'll try watching this one again some day, but I'm not looking forward to it.

It's not very obvious, but this wasn't their first meeting. Mikoto already knew that her attacks wouldn't hurt Touma. She is tsundere, but she isn't electrocuting people for no reason. In fact, Mikoto is chased them down to save Touma from those thugs, as his ability is useless against non-supernatural threats (even though he tried to save them from her in the first place...)

How can one man be so bold yet so incredibly wrong?

Yeah I don't like that either, but I'll give the series another try.

By quitting an anime right when it looks really bad, which (on a quick second glance) turns out to be about a second or two before it hints that it's not that bad. As for the correlation between boldness and error: It's a lot easier to never be wrong if you just keep your mouth shut. But it seems cowardly and not a good way to learn.
It's what happens when the closest thing to an Umamusume-fied SS we're ever going to get for the foreseeable future is Manhattan Cafe's imaginary (?) friend... Still hoping for that to change though. Same goes for some of his kids and grandkids.
