    a violent neonazi will show up at 3 am at your address with a balaclava. throw a molotov cocktail through your bedroom window and leave before the police arrives.

    A balaclava don’t save you if I know who you are.

    The point is that all these supposed “violent neonazi” are what they are because they think that they are “anonimous” on Internet but they have not the balls to do it in the real life, else there would be way more attacks you describe, after all there are a lot of people who already expose themself against them in the real life.

        what do you mean “if i know who you are”? you really think they’re gonna reply to you on social media before showing up at your place?

        Honestly ? Maybe they will not reply to me on social media but probably yes I (we) would know who they are, simply because they want to be known, it is the essence of their group.

        you think four attacks per day are not much? not enough for you to see a problem with right-wing violence?

        No, they are a problem even if not caused by right-wing violence. But I would like to know how do they define “right-wing violence”.

        Nowaday If you are from the left-wing and I hit you I became automatically a right-wing extremist while I hit you just because you were an asshole to my wife without any political implication.
