Where do the Anglophone world's interpretation of all and each of Spengler's cultures, prime symbols, and natural origins come from?

Who are the most influential Spenglerian secondary thinkers and their writings? The guys who didn't understand him and watered him down, resulting in Reddit-tier, wigger, neonazi, and brownoid bastardizations of his thought?

Why is Spengler chartists's (clearly a second-rate thinker) chart not actually based on DOTW's text, or even ostensibly conclusively inferrable from Spengler's thought?

They clearly didn't even undertand Faustian's origins, based on the picture they used, as the picture used unmistakably contradicts Spengler's dissociations of the natural origin.

Going by DOTW's text, China's prime symbol didn't come from its main river, but the general Chinese landscape itself. This also better integrates with its architectural expression as gardening, and according to Spengler, also landscaping with buildings in general.

Spengler doesn't even associate a river for the "illusion" symbol, which isn't even called that in DOTW, and for good reason: illusion is a secondary effect of India's actual prime symbol. Whoever spread illusion as India's prime symbol is a midwit and an idiot.

To say nothing of other stupid interpretations of the civilizations of the New World.
