    These people are really dumb. Well, not just for the racism stuff.

    There is this pervasive belief among far right extremists that they can disrupt society by shooting at transfer stations. They think it will cause a cascade power outage and then people will just start rioting. They hope it will trigger the big race war they are hoping for.

    The thing is, sometimes they succeed, and sometimes it does cause a wide power disruption. No one riots. They just go home and play board games by candlelight, and smart people fix the damage.

    Most of the time they get caught before trying anything.

    Dumb.

      A lot of it is because the only book they all have ever read is the turner diaries. In the book a neonazi group does some terrorism and this magically leads to white people winning a race war.

      It’s terrible writing written to appeal to terrible people.

      Yeah I guess that’s consistent with their lack of empathy. They don’t understand other people. That probably is a requirement for being a racist shithead
