Well done!

The 'ableism' thing is a tough one, since that's one of the forms of 'discrimination' that I think are actually intrinsically Left-wing. You see this all the time: old people need to die off because they're slowing down change, they need to die off because people tend to drift slightly Rightward as they age (frankly, I have no idea how I can move any further as I age since I practically started out Far-Right, and my views only change on peripheral and rather non-ideological things).

I like how you replaced 'Weeaboo' with the term 'Anime enjoyer'. I've never been into that stuff, and I actually found those questions (as well as the 'self-loving' section) the most time-consuming to answer. For example, on the 'modern Japanese culture' question, I felt in some ways that Japanese culture might be worth preserving, but that modern 'culture' sucks all round. Putting them together as 'modern Japanese' made it difficult, because we are fusing together something 'very bad' and something 'okay'. Eventually I took the answer that it was strongly negative simply because modernity eventually overrides anything that might be good in any culture, and arguably renders any physical space it is in totally bereft of culture in the end anyway. In short, modern 'culture' is in itself deculturalizing.
