The flip side of it is that if these racist were committing their terrorist acts a part of a larger group, the potential for detecting the attack and stopping it before hand goes up. It is hard to identify and stop individuals acting alone. Thousands of angry men might see all the same videos, and yet not act out. Identifying the ones who will from the large majority who won't act violent can be tough. Trying to shutdown the sites might not be effective. We have been trying to shutdown the raadixal Muslims for years, without success. Radical Muslims are still successfully recruiting among the moderate Muslims of the West, and the radical Muslims still kill more than the racist people complain about.
A better understanding of how they got to this stage mifht enable to more effectively combat this. Unlike the case of Islam, where radicalizing turned formerly peaceful moderates into violent Muslim fanatics, these guys watching far right sites and median didn't turn them from formerly tolerant peace loving persons into murderous racistm. Rather, it was their already racist attitude that seems to have caused them to seek out the racist sites
There was a time when it was more extreme leftist ideologs who were committing violent acts, like the Red Brigade.
