Some of the antifascists in Australia have had success with YARDing (Yelling At Racist Dogs): “How to deal with alt-right pests at rallies”.
Demonstrating to these idiots that they’re outsiders to the communities they’re targeting is, you picked the right word, demoralising. One of the main neo-Nazi organisers here (Joel Davis) made a speech to the UK Patriotic Alternative, quote “You guys might get demoralised sometimes when you do a demonstration and there’s fifty of you and there’s two hundred antifa- I’m not saying that’s happened, but I don’t- I don’t know all the details, but I’ve been in experiences like that where I’ve gone to protests […] and there’s ten of us and, like, two hundred communists. And it feels like shit. i-it’s horrible. It’s horrifying.”

I think this is kinda what trades hall was going for. My comment in the post text about them not being able to say ‘punch them’ was aimed at folks who might think that by not saying that then it is some kind of capitulation. I remember reading that someone did confront the goons at the recent Melbourne rally and apparently they got toweled because the nazis are prepared to fight you when you’re out numbered.
