The inside-the-law approach that works to some limited extent is public community rejection. Things like large groups showing up and standing with their back to the Nazis.

The method that has historically stopped Nazis like this involves getting some level of police cooperation and beating them up

So let me get this straight, you want to commit mass murder, but you also don't want to get hit? Idk, man, seems a little hypocritical.

I always read it as a guy who saw war movies where people cower in fear of Nazi officers so he went outside expecting the same results.

I had the misfortune of working with that guy before he went mask-off. weird fucking dude who couldn't stop hitting on the women in the office

Not that it justifies or excuses anything at all, but I definitely think there's a pipeline from the, like, Joe Rogan / Andrew Tate segment of the toxic manosphere that leads down this path. There are probably opportunities to save some of these people before their craving for attention leads them to hate

Stochastic terrorism is the keyword. Blame edgy creators like PewDiePie for this. He exposed hateful people and ideas to his audience. He has no remorse while calling for genocide of brown people, writing "death to all Jews" or saying n-word with hard r. He also promoted imperialist, bat-shit crazy books to his fanbase.
