If they're the kind of neo-nazis who legit believe in massive Jewish conspiracies/underground Jewish cabals secretly running the world, they might be unnerved tho

DA

The only neo-Nazis* I met were rather aggressive and wouldn't be intimidated at all - when you're marching in the streets in big numbers, with flags and maybe some flares, you're really getting pumped and your confidence in your strength grows. The crowd gives you power. That's not really a situation in which you can get "unnerved" by somebody suspicious (you might, on the other hand, attack that suspicious person, you're feeling great and powerful atm, after all...)

/* obviously, they did not admit to being neo-Nazis officially (they wouldn't be able to demonstrate in public), but they were uber-nationalist organizations

that's kind of what I was thinking, tbh. people in large groups tend to get more confident and braver than they might be alone, and I'd think there's more danger of them turning aggressive...

(Anonymous) 2015-02-01 10:12 pm (UTC)(link)
Yeah, from my POV all these comments about "judging people" and "unnerving them" are rather unreal, because that's usually a very testosterone-heavy, trigger-happy crowd, they won't even notice your judging...

(Anonymous) 2015-02-01 10:24 pm (UTC)(link)
Yep. At best they'd laugh at you, at worst they'd target you later.

I think people in this post are really down-playing how fucking scary these groups can be.

(Anonymous) 2015-02-01 10:32 pm (UTC)(link)
I think most of the commenters here have never stood in such crowd's way. And good for them. I took part in two anti-fascist blokades and that was fucking scary.

they must be imagining a bunch of bald-headed westboro types, but neo-nazis are absolutely more than that

(Anonymous) 2015-02-01 11:02 pm (UTC)(link)
Which crowd? What protest are you talking about? Is this in the USA or somewhere else?

Because the vast majority (if not 100%) of official rallies that are racist, homophobic, etc. - get overwhelmed by crowds against them, mocking and such. Pretty much every public KKK rally gets that.

In the USA, that stuff just doesn't work like it used to. There are still racists and racist groups of course, but they have to be more subtle than they used to.

(Anonymous) 2015-02-01 11:06 pm (UTC)(link)
Shit, figuring out clever ways to mock the Westboro Baptist people is practically its own subgenre of youtube videos

(Anonymous) 2015-02-01 11:07 pm (UTC)(link)
Not US. Eastern Europe.

Around here it's unfortuantely much more likely for extremists to get a big crowd than for those who want to counter-demonstrate against.
