How do people in this day in age become nazis/neonazies sexist or even incels when there is so much knowledge against it? Do they get anything out of being that way?

I think the basis of this is that it's not about knowledge. It's about emotion, and anger and hate are easy emotions.
See that is exactly what I don't get. emotion, anger and hate requires effort and as a very lazy person it seems like a whole lot of effort misspent
Thinking, analyzing, and understanding are the hard ones. Emotion and hate require next to no effort, just some years of listening to Fox or Rush Limbaugh. They'll tell you who to hate and be angry at.
And like I said, hate is an easy emotion to have. If anyone is trying to tap into it, you're likely being manipulated.

Not to me. Emotions just are. My parents taught me a lot of bigoted ways and those emotions just rise up. I had to argue with myself against those thought, after I moved out and grew up.
