“... veterans of the hardcore-vs.-skinheads battles of yore are happy to help with war stories and advice. (Spoiler alert: Most advocate punching Nazis in the face.) Here's an oral history on how punks took back their scene.”

How do we get rid of nazi mentality? Education hasn't worked, calls for respect don't work, violence doesn't?

Then I think of people like Alex Jones, propaganda outlets like Fox News and realize that it's pretty much their fault.

Fuck "freedom of speech", any form of racism should be forbidden and punishable by law.

@rick_777 Confrontation seems to be the only thing that works. Fascism matures in bubbles. Invading safe havens for racists and exposing them in the real world is quite effective

But that a requires considerable cognitive load which some people aren't prepared to (or capable of) expending

Nothing like suddenly finding there are real-world consequences to spreading hate
