This is a review of "Nailmaker: The Reaper, an Isekai LitRPG: Progression Fantasy with an OP MC" by A. Bel. It is adequate Delta wish-fulfillment.

The protagonist is a Delta named Jack. He is a typical hapless do-gooder, deluded that's he's hard. Hand him enough power to found an empire, and he won't get laid for the first book. He'll make some fine speeches about teamwork though. A harem inexplicably forms anyway, waiting for him to deign to dick them.

The spectacular errors of judgment Jack proudly commits in the name of his pedestrian moral sentiments are similar in character to those responsible for dooming the West. If White men put their clans and Y-DNA clades first, instead of foolish abstract notions, their governments would not dare oppress them so.

Since I analyzed the suboptimal character progression choices, I've included the relevant statblocks, which are quite lengthy. You don't have to read them unless you want to check my work. The important part of this review is the insights about Delta psychology from examining their escapist fantasy. For the real-world political analysis, start at the final section, titled "Y-DNA".
