These guys always travel in packs. That's why groupthink works so well on them. Where are the lone wolf white supremacist's? No where, because being alone leads to self-reflection and obvious conclusions.
Sounds like they're trying to make it easier for us to deal with them in one go.
Group think is absolutely an issue, and deindividuation leads to people going further as a group than they would. You're right. Lone actor grievance fuelled violence is also a risk with white supremacists. And there's often a lot of indoctrination via social media.
