About the first one, I really don't know who you think you're mocking there. Is that supposed to be some real person? The square glasses suggest a university professor, but I'm curious if it's meant to be some actual professor or just a generalized attempt to mock all of them. I highly doubt that any significant fraction of any group would hold both of those views. I can believe that some fraction of some groups hold one of those views or the other, but I'd be very surprised if the intersection set of both views included anyone of importance.

The second one is meh, the third one is mildly funny.

The fourth one is odd too. The fascist guy is placed in the top right (libertarian) corner of the Nolan Chart, whereas fascists are normally placed in the bottom right corner of the Nolan Chart. I'm curious if this is some odd attempt by fascists to move themselves from the bottom to the top of the chart?

The "male-or-female sex" sense is attested in English from early 15c. As sex (n.) took on erotic qualities in 20c., gender came to be the usual English word for "sex of a human being," in which use it was at first regarded as colloquial or humorous.

Right, but gender = sex in that sense of the word. The common sense of the word is distinguished from sex. So you might have the sex of male, but the gender of whatever you choose since gender is a social construct.

So until the 1950s gender was equivalent with sex. Now, they are not related concepts whatsoever.
