A quick primer on pogroms and racial violence, for those who haven't spent far too much time studying this stuff:
The danger isn't Nazis descending on your town. That's called a civil war, it's a different level of violence.
What real Nazis do is amplify existing hatred: lots of people are angry or jealous at someone else. They tell people the anger is justified if the target deserves it. Don't think "which neighbor is racist?", think "who would kill me for my car or my house?"
