I read something ages ago, some study or something, not sure how legit, and it basically came to the conclusion that the only way to stop people from liking and associating with Nazi ideology is to not expose them to it, because there are some people that will like it if exposed, and it can't really be stopped.

    Culling the herd seems to be the tried and true method.

    I'm not even sure how well that will work now with the internet.

    Well, you can't just cull for the sake of culling, who do you cull? So you need something like a war to occur, but the internet will just keep radicalizing people at an increasing rate even as they get culled.

    Edit: Like Russia is being culled right now, but that doesn't deter the growth elsewhere.

    WW2 we culled the extremists, same with the US civil war.

    So yes, I am suggesting war is the only answer to Fascism.

    I don't think any other option would have worked for Japan, Italy and Germany either.

    We're never going to see a war like WW2 again, only isolated things like Russia and Ukraine, and Israel and Palestine.

    War would become nuclear and destroy everyone if something like WW2 happened again and wouldn't really wipe it out, it'd wipe everyone out, and let it thrive in the now remaining isolated pockets.

    So there will only be isolated wars but that doesn't outpace it's growth worldwide.

    While Ukraine is not anywhere near the scale of WWII, they're hardly isolated. While the hot battlefield is geographically isolated, the logistical and economic battlefields deeply involve many countries around the world, including NATO countries, China, and Iran. It's much bigger than a proxy war.
